hello jlopez, It is better to wear something formal a mini dress with sleeve will do or if you are going to wear a no sleeve dress you better to have a shawl so you can put it while inside the church and can take it off at the reception. It is also important to follow the couple's request when it comes to attire happy mylotting have a nice day

So I could wear a mini dress if I have a sweater to cover my back and shoulders? Or is it still to risky/ sexy ?

i would suggest you can go for a mini dress but make sure it's not to short sweater is not bad as long as it will go along with your dress, too much sexiness is a NO NO just wear something semi formal

hi jlopez! just yesterday, i attended my friend's wedding, and i had been in that same situation days before the event. I've been thinking on what to wear. but since, it is a formal event, then you have to be in a formal dress. but make sure that to pattern your dress to the wedding's motif so that you would feel that you belong...:)but the most important thing is, wear a dress that you are comfortable of wearing..

a nice dress would be pretty to wear to a wedding with simple shoes (like ballet flats) or if you feel more comfortable, nice dress pants and a nice blousse would looki nice as well.

I wear a sharp color red dress to my husband's brother's wedding few years ago with a black hihg heels, it was fitted in and shows a little bit of my back, I thought I was pretty and I did get compliments on that night. I think a classy dress is alwayas a good choice for attending events like that.

i think you should bear in mind the motif and type of wedding you're going to. you might pick a dress that fits their motif but is not too necessary. for a church wedding, you might choose a simple cocktail dress with closed shoes. you can also try wearing jeans with a nice decent top. just be sure it's not that too rugged. it might not suit the occasion in that case. well, good luck! :)

Just wear clothes thats comfortable, some thing that you wear when you go the church. Make sure that it's not that revealing or too sexy. Also don't try to out stage the bride =) enjoy!

You will want to wear something that you would wear to church. With it being in May, I would wear a dress. Or, a nice blouse and skirt. You can wear just about anything. I wouldnt wear anything to revealing or short.
