I'd love some ideas! Long description below, but a fancy dress that's a bit special but not super formal, for a size 16 with ginger hair?
Long version: I am getting married next month in Denmark, just me and him, no guests or reception afterwards. It will be really informal with a 10 minute legal ceremony only. However, I would like to dress up a bit and have some nice photos taken, which will go some way towards placating his mum as well.... He has a dark grey suit and we can get a shirt for him that matches or doesn't, if that helps.
I don't think pale colours suit me as I have red hair (Lily Cole colour) and similar colouring, although not many freckles. I go red in the face and chest at the drop of a hat, so nothing which clashes or emphasises that. I'm 5ft 6, so long dresses often are too long, and I won't wear big heels, a wedge maybe. I am a size 16 and don't particularly like the top of my arms or my thighs, so anything which disguises them a little would be great...
I like dark colours particularly teal/blue and dark green suits me, but am aware that I dress very boringly, and very casually, so something a bit more special would be nice.
I like this dress: www.asos.com/closet-london-plus/closet-london-plus-wrap-front-pleated-midi-skater-dress-in-navy/prd/23280599?colourwayid=60467065&cid=9579
for the colour and shape, but it might not be formal enough, and might not look that great in photos (also might need something over it as photos will be outside).
I wonder if this is better, a break from my norm but I quite like the colour and it might photograph better... www.asos.com/chi-chi-london/chi-chi-london-high-neck-ombre-maxi-dress-in-blue/prd/14474815?colourwayid=16618994&cid=13934
