Please help me to accessorize this dress for a wedding

I bought this dress for what will be a fairly relaxed July wedding. What kind of shoes, bag and jewellery should I wear with it - and what would work to cover up if it's a cooler day?

I think it's quite pretty and feminine, which isn't my usual style. I'd like my accessories to toughen it up a bit if possible. I can't walk in heels but can wear wedges.

Thanks!

Sorry not sure what happened with that second link!

I would go for pale pink or nude cage shoe/boots with a very small kitten heel. Wedges may look clumpy and although the dress is lovely it's very casual and wedges would emphasise that. A pashmina in the same shade (or similar) as the pale colour in the skirt would be lovely. I wouldn't go for a jacket/ blazer as I think it would look too structured with that.

I like the idea of cage shoes - I'd be OK with more of a heel with something like that, it's really heels without some kind of foot/ankle strap that I can't walk in. Think you may be right re. wedges looking too casual.

Thank you! Any suggestions on jewellery..?

I'd wear these heels

m.newlook.com/shop/shoe-gallery/view-all-shoes/black-suede-ankle-strap-heeled-sandals-_363858601?extcam=UK_PPC_PLA_3638591_CR_91306240834_DV_m&tmcampid=155&tmad=c&tmplaceref=UK_PPC_PLA_3638591_CR_91306240834_DV_m&gclid=CN3tk-O12swCFYdAGwodHB4KmQ

and I'd get a pashmina and envelope clutch in the same colour as the pale pink colour.

I'd not wear a necklace with that neckline because it's all about the collar bones and décolleté. I'd wear a couple of nice bracelets and some earrings.
