    Would a jacobite shirt tucked in be OK?

    You are correct. It would be impolite to out-dress the guests of honor. I would, as mentioned above, wear a nice shirt with your kilt, hose, sporran... and enjoy the wedding. I don't believe, and I perform a number of weddings and funerals, that anyone should be in formal attire when the wedding is casual.

    If it is not clear to you what would be appropriate to wear from the invitation, it would not be improper to ask the couple for clarification.

    Some guys can pull off the ghillie shirt look really well and if it's your style go ahead. If you're going that way, use a coloured one rather than a white or cream one that imo looks costumey on everyone.

    If not, a coordinating polo shirt would be "Casual but dressy"
