help me crosspost! My boyfriend's grandfather is getting remarried. The groom, the bride, and most of the family (who I don't know) are Salvation Army members. I have no idea what to wear.
→[More:]I suspect it will be a lot less fancy than most weddings, but I don't want to underdress and look like a jerk. My boyfriend's mom, who grew up in the church, said "oh, wear anything, really. even what you have on now would be fine." (which surprised me, as I was wearing a polka dot halter dress with a baby t and combat boots at the time, none of which mentally say "wedding guest" to me).
I was thinking of wearing a plaid red and earthtone bias cut skirt (full length), with a brown knit blouse and a brown cardigan, brown tights and flats. Too casual? Otherwise I was thinking of a black knee length suit-skirt with a pastel green three quarter sleeve blouse, but I wasn't sure on the black skirt part.
My boyfriend is wearing a suit, and if his grandmother's funeral was any indication, most of the guests will be in SA uniforms.
