High society wedding - help me!

[outofmydepthhelp]

I have been invited to the wedding of one of my DP's friends in early spring.

Safe to say I will have never been to a wedding like this before!

The couple are v posh (school with Royalty etc) and it will be morning suits for to men and I have no idea what women wear apart from seeing pictures of Kate Middleton etc at weddings but I think that might be a bit OTT.

I don't want to look like I'm trying to be something I'm not but I just don't want to make a faux pas. I'm early 30's quite petite but big boobs.

Well to do MN, please advise me!

How about a Bombshell HQ?

I sang at just such a wedding last week and can confirm that the younger crowd were all about the headband type things, whilst the next generation up were all about the hats.

Another wedding I sang at, half the congregation were from Belgium. I have never seen so many stylish women in one place. They were fabulous. So maybe go to Belgium and get a personal shopper? 😂🇧🇪

Look at The Ladies Maid on Insta for inspiration. Dressing people for events is what she does.

The Vampires Wife is the brand to look at for inspo.

Me: OP is wondering what to wear to a society wedding
DH: a dress
Me: blimey DH, it's not that straightforward if you're a woman!
DH: .............. a nice dress

There you go OP, problem solved

floral print midi/maxi dress with some kind of sleeve & court shoe plus a headband or a dress & matching jacket

Thank you everyone! I actually love the look of those velvet headbands!

@TheSheepofWallSt Have had a look on there and seen a lovely one! The exact style I had in mind!

@FusionChefGeoff is he available for personal shopping much more simple for men!

Bear in mind the setting. If it’s in a church you will want below the knee, not to revealing up top and some kind of headwear. If it’s a hat/hat like remove after ceremony before reception. If there is no church ceremony then either a headband/hair accessory or nothing at all. Obviously more revealing dress is perfectly suitable as well.

"High society"? Does this mean you are low society? What nonsense. Just wear your usual everyday dress and bare feet and carry your fish basket but dont offend these superior beings by coming in the front door. Staff entance only, you lowly being!

Seriously? Bollox terms lime high society belong in low brow rags like OK magazine and The Sun.
