I'm looking for ideas for what to wear to the upcoming wedding of my cousin's daughter.
It's going to be next month in a very hot, humid climate (Southern US). The venue is a large historical farmhouse loaned by some other relatives. It's very rural. The bride is a recent college grad and the invitations were handmade, so I'm assuming there's going to be a somewhat Pinterest-y country-chic vibe.
The ceremony is at 6pm with the reception following. Evening wedding indicates more formal, but it's going to be HOT. I checked out the Google Earth view of the venue, and it looks like we'll probably be parking in the pasture and hiking up a gravel drive to the house (or possibly the barn). I'm planning to wear wedges.
Some other relevant info - I'm a tall, chubby lady in my 40's. I'm fine with showing my arms, but nobody wants to see my knees.
My fallback dress is going to be a maxi I already have, but the fabric is on the stiff side and doesn't breathe well. I think I will be too sweaty.
I'm looking at something like this. It's also synthetic, but appears to be more on the drapey knit side, which seems like it would be cooler.
