What should I wear to an outdoor wedding?

Would a mid-calf, sleeveless linen sundress in pastel colours be okay? Would low heels or open toed sandals be inappropriate in a potentially muddy field? Should I wear a hat to keep the sun off my face? And how do I avoid bees and other bugs?
As you can tell, this is the first wedding I’m going to!

I think you’ve got the right idea. The linen dress with low heel shoes and a hat would work well. No way to avoid bees and other bugs, although avoiding cologne, perfumed soaps, lotions and deodorants will help (don’t forego the deodorant, just make sure it’s unscented!). Have a wonderful time!

the sundress sounds comfortable and cool, I would wear a low or no heeled shoe. I would wear a hat and if worried about bugs spray yourself your body with deet.

Im thinking a summer dress with a pair of matching pastel flats. Dont wear a hat but if you have to wear sunglasses. I hope it helps!!!

A cute summer dress with sandals is fine (I would avoid flip-flops). Unless you are super sensitive to the sun, I wouldn’t worry about wearing a hat — weddings these days are rarely longer than 20 minutes. Wear some sunscreen and you’ll be fine (hats are a little too old-fashioned in my opinion).
