Dress for wedding

URGENT help needed! Wedding next weekend and away this, nothing to wear.

I'm 5'4", size 12 but sporting new baby jiggle and very low self esteem! The venue limits shoe choice but have these... I could exchange the shoes for them in black.

I hate my arms so need a elbow length or full sleeve, which I know is a nightmare in the summer.

Hellllllp meeee.

Do you have a budget? And would you consider a Cardigan or wrap over your arms instead of sleeves?

No real budget, but we're not loaded so nothing for crazy money.

Not a floaty, floral person but thank you!

This would go with your shoes phase eight

This is 2 piece so if did get too hot could take sleeved section off however maybe a bit dark blue

Would need black shoes for this

Ah just seen you're not a fan of floral! Sorry all my suggestions had flower prints.

Prints / patterns are a good idea to disguise any bits you're uncomfortable with. Perhaps a graphic geometric pattern?

This is quite unusual:

This is a dress I am buying for a wedding (I'm pregnant and it's maternity, but could still work?)
