Is this appropriate for a (nice) backyard reception?
I’m trying to decide it this will work. I’m mid-30s. The dress code in the email invite says “cocktail or semi-formalâ€. It’s a 4-10pm backyard wedding reception (no ceremony) in early September. It may be a bit fancier than the usual backyard reception - it’s a beautiful location and there will be a DJ, dance floor, and open bar. Temperature still start in the mid-80s and drop to high-70s by 10pm (and be very, very humid). I will probably wear black flats because it’s hard to wear heels on grass. I would usually not wear thin straps like this, but I feel like it might be okay in this situation. What do do we think?
