Attending a funeral and unsure what would be a better option

So I have a funeral i’m going to tomorrow for a relative and i’m kinda unsure what to wear. I do not have a black suit but my mom already told me that thats not an issue and most will be wearing blue as that is the family members favorite color. The only suit i have is, imo, a bit loud and i feel like i should wear something more toned down. Below i’ve included a photo of what the suit looks like, and an alternate fit i think would be more toned down. Idk maybe i’m over thinking it but would like some opinions

Blue suit with black belt, shoes, and tie is an option if you have them

fatigues to a funeral feels odd to me but it's all context dependent

Good point Full suit feels like overkill to me but I’ve also only been to funerals in the midwest

My family is fairly relaxed in how they dress so i dont think it would be out of place but i get your point Yah its kinda how i was feeling which is what gave me pause

Tan chinos maybe if you have a pair without a vintage bloodstain

I think I have less issue wearing a suit to things than your average bear so just go with your heart. But the blue suit with black accessories is a fit I've done before and mostly like This would also be great. I think my issue with the right is that they're fatigues and they have the stain on them.

Personally I'm with @bean on blue suit with black accessories, but I've done navy blazer, tie, tan chinos to a funeral before. IMO black knit tie is fine, most people won't read it as anything other than a black tie. But this is kinda all context dependent, last funeral I went to I wore my floral knit EG suit at the request of the family and that's loud AF.

Yah i think like 3/4 of the men in my family do not even own a suit so the dresscode will certainly be very relaxed. This is mostly me being in my own head about it This input has been very helpful though i think i’ll probably go with the blue suit and black accesories
