My brother in law is getting married in DC this weekend. The wedding is at noon. The reception is at six. The reception is a pretty formal affair. Do you think it’s wise to change clothes a bit in between? My outfit for evening includes very glammy accessories: swarovski crystal necklace, metallic heels, high drama make-up, sparkly hair pins, etc. 

I’m partially asking this because I bought two pairs of shoes in case one didn’t work out, and one is a little less formal than the other, so I think I’m secretly wishing to have an excuse to keep both. 😉

I dont see a problem with you changing. You will have hours in between and you are going from a day time ceremony to a evening reception. Do it. 🙂 Also, wear the heels that you want.

I agree with PP, go ahead and change. I’ve actually seen many women do this, where they wear a nice top and pants for the ceremoney during the day and show up in a completely different and much dressier outfit for the reception.
