Grooms tailcoat and tophat at a farm wedding

I had a question about what the groom should wear.  We are having a relatively informal off beat wedding at my parents farm, but my FH and I are both hugh Fred Astaire fans as well as competetive ballroom dancers.  So we wanted to put him into a tail coat and top hat.  The wedding is in November in the mountains, I'm going to be in a smooth fitting dress possibly with a white cape and hood and its the ceremony will be outside.  Will he be way to formal (we won't ask guests to dress as formally) for the day? Also the ceremony will take place around 4 (sunset being at 5, but the sun will be behind the trees by then).  Thanks guys!  Also it is going to be November, 2011... I know 1 month!!
