Update.

Thinking I will go for linen but edging toward a navy suit (I will spill food and drink on a light colour)

Something like this..(but with a fatter face)

Are you single or are you going as a couple? If the former then the only correct answer is a kilt - plus a club to fend them off with.

A nice linen suit?

+ 1 or a suite from Paul Smith

I'm currently in Italy, though further North in Turin. On the way into work this morning I walked past a gentleman with a black tie printed on his white shirt. This solution will save you time and money, plus your sartorial elegance will be the talk of the wedding.

You're buying a suit just to go to one wedding?

Navy blue linen suit. Try Jaeger, I bought a very nice linen wool blend last summer.

What would the discerning STW'er wear to a wedding in Rome?

Hmmmm?, a hard one for sure?….

i think i'd wear some form of leg covering, jeans or trousers, perhaps a top (shirt/t-shirt) to cover the upper half and i guess i'd wear some form of footwear as well, if it's cold i'd wear my beanie (merino of course - i'm not an idiot)

There you go…my top tips for fashion sense in a nutshell.

If you're a Brit, then it's incumbent upon you to wear British clothing, ranging from Richard James, via Paul Smith (not PS though), ending up somewhere slightly relaxed like Universal Works.
Alternatively, get off the plane, go straight to la Rinascente and buy your outfit there.
