Re: Formal Wedding Attire Question

It'd been a few years since I attended a dressy wedding, but I remember being concerned about what I "should" wear.  I don't think I ever will be again - unless it's my own wedding!  I say that because the quests wore everything from a denim dress (yes) to beautiful long gowns, but most wore lovely short dresses or dressy pants and tops.

 

The wedding was in Philadelphia on the top floor of the old Wanamaker's building.  The bridal party was all glamorous and that included the mothers of the bridal couple.  Still, I felt right at home and comfortable in black silk pants with a red silk jacket over a white cami. I hardly ever go dressy, so I was very happy to have clothes I could wear again and still feel appropriate.  Even my jewelry for the night came from my own collection.

 

 

i would urge you to dress so you'll feel good about yourself and then have a wonderful time.  New Orleans is a great city to visit. I do hope you have time to tour a bit.

Unless your husband is wearing a tuxedo, I would not even consider a long gown. 

 

I've been to numerous formal weddings and very few ladies wore long dresses.  Those that did looked like they were probably wearing the gown they wore as either MOB or MOG.

Re: Formal Wedding Attire Question

When is the wedding? The time of year in New Orleans would make a difference on what material I would want.
