Tuxedos are traditional formal attire for men. I would think that for a graduation you would wear a nice suit. If you are a guest at a wedding, you should ask the bride what to wear, a suit or tux. If the invitation says "black tie" that means a tuxedo.
It is generally a bad idea. Some invitations will decree "Black Tie Optional" or "Black Tie Preferred." At the former, tuxedos will probably be worn by the majority of men, but a dark suit is acceptable. At the latter, a dark suit is narrowly acceptable if time or finances truly prevent a man from even renting a tuxedo. However, if an invitation simply says "Black Tie," it would be impolite not to wear a tuxedo.
No. Only suspenders ("braces" in the U.K.) are acceptable with a tuxedo. They should be the button-on variety, as clip-on suspenders will damage the pants. Black or white silk are the most classic. Even if one wanted to, tuxedo pants do not come with belt loops. == == == ==
If a black bow tie was worn with a white tuxedo it would make a great combination! The bow tie would really stand out and look great.
Formal attire means: Men: Tuxedo, but find out first if it is "white tie" or "black tie". Women: Long dress made of silk, satin, organza. Conservative color, no "fad" styles.

Military medals and insignia that you have earned are entirely appropriate for a black or white tie event when wearing a tuxedo or a dinner jacket. Wear them the same way you would for the corresponding military uniform - that is "mess dress" or "dinner dress." This generally means miniature medals and devices over the lapel of the jacket. Ribbons for which there is no medal, and and large medals should only be worn with the military uniforms.
