What to wear?

[Purplepancakes]

My partner and I having a very small wedding ceremony and plan to have a bigger event later in the year. I just have no clue what do wear, it'll be us and a couple of family members as witnesses. Probably go for a meal afterwards. I'd like a dress but wedding dress seems over kill. I mostly love floral midi dresses but can't find one that's suitable or if this would be ok? Any ideas, what have others done?

Congratulations!

Do you have a budget in mind? And what dress size do you usually wear?

People I’ve known who have a two stage wedding have tended to wear a very simple white dress for the small ceremony, and something more traditionally fancy for the large event.

Maybe something like this for the first?

But they’re obviously just things I like - so may not be anything like what you’re thinking of …

You can wear whatever you want - maybe a full blown wedding dress for the first part might be a bit OTT but you could still opt for a simple white dress. Or if you like florals I love this one from silkfred. You could wear it with a more 'bridal' headband.
