    Let him wear whatever he wants. Presumably he is an adult and can dress himself.

    They should dress to the same degree of formality but it doesn't have to be a tuxedo. A dark suit is fine for an evening wedding (which I presume you are having if the groom and groomsmen are wearing a tuxedo.)

    Here it's tradition to include the fathers in similar dress to the groomsmen. We rented formal suits for all the guys including the fathers. But that's tradition here. I would say it is completely up to you. I always liked the idea of including them though as they are important.ETD we also included grooms stepfather in the suits as he is close to DH.

    My father in law rented the same tuxedo as the groom and men in the bridal party. My father wore his own tuxedo - plain black, but didn't match, that he got for 50% off at Men's Wearhouse.

    My dad is dressing to the same degree, just in a different color coat. I have absolutely no idea what my FFIL and FSFIL are wearing.
