Occasionally the wedding party will wear them, but more and more these days they wear a really nice suit or 3 piece suit. I have only seen 1 wedding in the past three years which was black tie for all attending and it was a late afternoon wedding with an evening reception at a very fancy country club. Other weddings that I attend as a guest are much the same.
But as you suggest, let the invitation be your guide.

Dinner jackets are pretty common for the wedding party in this part of Canada, but things vary an hour's drive down any road.
