Jeans to a wedding reception how much a no-no??

[beyondthestar]

I need an outfit for a wedding reception asap. I don't own any trousers, I find it hard to find a nice fit and don't wear dresses, won't go into the reasons for that but a dress or skirt is not an option. By jeans I mean jet black , nicely fitted (new) skinny ones, with a nice top, light coloured blazer, accessories etc. I this a complete no? Surely black trousers will look the same in a darkened room? or is black just a general no-no?

TIA

Didn't mean together. Floaty top over the jeans.

I liked linen trousers but not shiny polyester work look.

Well people do wear jeans to evening so you might not be the only one. It's not something me or DH would do. The decisions is entirely yours.

I agree skinny black trousers would be better and it sounds like you could do with something other than jeans in your wardrobe.

Thanks everyone,

It may sound bizarre that I only wear jeans this is probably because I have issues with change and clothing materials etc (ASD)
Only dp (female) knows I was planning to wear jeans and said it seems fine but I wasn't sure as this is my first reception only event and wanted to ask others opinion. As some people have said even black trousers are a no and just a short time away from the event I may just decline the invite tbh, thanks again for all replies

Please go and wear your jeans, it's fine

Seconded. Go, wear your jeans and have a great time!

Don't decline! I said no to jeans but it's not that important! Don't miss out on the event because of it.

No no no! Wear the jeans with heels and nice accessories, some sparkle/bling, hair and makeup done - it'll be FINE. (I know what I said before, but I meant 'as a general rule')

Really, if you were my friend and it was my wedding and it was 'jeans or decline. I'd really want you to come in your jeans.

Agree with everyone else that it's better to go in jeans than miss it.
