Jacket to go over wedding dress?

Posting here for traffic.
I'm getting married 3 weeks today. Everything else is sorted but I need to find some sort of jacket to wear with my wedding dress! It's not going to be warm and hanging about getting photos etc I don't want to freeze and look horribly uncomfortable in any pictures.
I'm "alternative" I suppose (I have tattoos and a couple of piercings and will be wearing patent Dr Martens under my dress lol) and I've seen some lovely pictures online of people wearing cropped leather/denim jackets with wedding dresses or even a short fur jacket looks nice but I'm not sure! Any other suggestions to keep warm would also be good.
I've attached a couple of bad pictures of my dress if that helps.
I'm a size 18 so obviously that's another added struggle

personalised is a good idea?

Hi OP!

I'm also getting married this year (in October) and have decided to wear a denim jacket with a 'just married' patch on the back. My OH is doing something similar. We're both quite alternative (I'm wearing vans under my dress - fuck heels!)

This is the patch I'm going to get, on a light blue denim jacket with a borg collar Etsy patch

Might also get a little 'date' loveheart for the front loveheart

@MaMaMaMySharona I couldn't imagine anything worse than wearing heels, especially with a wedding dress on! Literally my worst nightmare. I've said since I was about 12 that if I ever got married I'd wear Docs so my dream is coming true Grin

Those patches are really really lovely! Thank you so much!

I love the white one with the blue flowers, great to wear with denims after. If you look round there's bound to be somewhere local to you that would personalise a jacket for you using a machine embroidery tool. Then I'd go for a denim jacket.
