Mу fiance’s best friend іѕ getting married іn Arkansas іn April. Mу fiance іѕ one οf thе groomsmen, whісh probably means thаt I mау want tο spend a small more οn whаt I’m wearing bесаυѕе hе′ll bе іn a tux.
Sο, anyway, I’m looking fοr thουghtѕ. It seems lіkе thіѕ spring’s trend іѕ black аnd white, bυt wουld thаt bе okay fοr a wedding? I саn’t seem tο find anything еlѕе іn thе stores. Floral prints аrе rampant tοο – аrе those acceptable?
Alѕο, fοr more background, thе ceremony іѕ іn a church іn downtown Small Rock οn a Saturday afternoon. Thе reception іѕ іn аn adjoining hall.
Anу input wουld bе greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello. I live in Fayetteville (which is northwestern of Small Rock), but my boyfriend’s and best friend’s families both live in Small Rock and I accompany them on their family visits often. Some of the weddings there can be very formal and high society. The majority of the U.S.’s population is grossly uninformed of Arkansas’ culture and class.
I agree with the person whom comment that you should find out the bridesmaid’s dresses and also the bride’s colors. You do not want to match the wedding unless you are going to be in the wedding. Also, confirm that it is formal. Wrap or tunic dresses in natural fibers in the $150 to $300 price range would work for just about any figure or spring wedding. Also, they are a fantastic addition to any woman’s wardrobe! I absolutely like them and they are very fashionable this spring! But, whatever you wear, do watch how much jewelry you place on. Nothing too large, complicated or tacky. Jewelry is essential to looking like a lady. Oh, and ya’ll is most often spoken in a very sophisticated and classicly southern way. Do not snicker if you hear it being used for if you do, you will most certainly be made fun of. But, it’s not as prominantly as you would reckon.
Anyhow, watch out for tacky patterns and florals. Try something more bold than pastel, stay away from lipstick reds, over-used metalics, and long sleeves unless you are cold blooded. April can be very tempermental and you should try to find something small-sleeved, cap-sleeved or sleeve-less and layer a shawl, balero jacket, wrap, or shrug (not the tie shruggs they are so tacky and three seasons ago!) over it.
Hair. Since it’s inside you shouldn’t really have to worry about wearing it up or down. But, if you have any curl to your hair the southern humidity will bring and frizz it out. So beware!
Last words of advice from an Arkansas native. Don’t wear velvet, overly shiny material if you are rounder or vertical stripes if you are slimmer. Watch those hemlines! The shorter the skirt/dress the shorter the heel. Don’t show too much cleavage! Don’t wear all black. Remember an extra pair of panty hose, a few safety pins and your own hair products. Oh, and remember that this is the brides day and you are just there to celebrate it with her… not steal the show. Oh, but most of all remember to have fun and soak up the warm southern hospitality! It’s a wonderful place to visit!!! Have fun and excellent luck!!!
