Regarding the tux, since I have no opinion on the rest, a dark suit with the right shirt (white) and tie (dark and silk) could work, though I'd admit to feeling nervous about being underdressed. And really, being underdressed reflects poorly on you rather than the couple, etc.
I hate, hate, HATE rental tuxes. They never fit right, and to be honest they kind of skeeve me. The next time I need a tux I'm going to order one from Indochino (Indochino.com). They make custom suits with your measurements for less than $400 dollars. I was nervous before I ordered, but Forbes gave them a positive review and they will pay for up to $75 for alterations at your local tailor. I was very impressed with both the fit and quality of my suit, and I didn't need to get any alterations. I will definitely order again.
