Tweed argyll(or any other style of tweed day jacket) every time. With a white shirt and black(not a bow) tie. In our part of the world the tweed would be mainly of any combination of greens and browns you can imagine. Black/charcoal/grey tweed is not versitile enough for us so it is rarely seen worn by the locals, but interestingly the black tweed is very handy for picking out the visitors to the sad event and does give us a clue when starting up a conversation, as one does at these sad events, with strangers.
I am not sure if they can still be found, but try and seek out(google?) the pictures of Chief John MacLeod of MacLeod's funeral. You will get an idea of the various funeral kilt attire options that might give you some food for thought.
