Good morning/evening Dutchy.

Do you happen to know if it would be bad etiquette not to wear a hat to a casual wedding here in England? I know they all seem to wear hats at weddings and I asked the bride if it was casual or formal - it's casual - they're having a pig roast at the pub next door to the church, but do you think that still means I'd have to wear a hat?
If so - I need to go buy one and quickly - the wedding's at noon and I don't own that sort of hat.

Anyway the word is: SCOTLAND

If you're going into church a hat is correct.

SCOTLAND

Since chewing on Thelma's LEOTARD Alf's nearly delerious.

LEOTARD

Little elves often tiptoe around resembling DO-GOODERS.

(I learned that in Brownies).
I brought a hat to the church just in case - only the mothers of the bride and groom wore them though. Some women wore jeans - I guess casual really means casual. It was a lovely wedding - the bride was beautiful and the groom was overwhelmed with emotion...a lovely, happy sort of emotion and a beautiful day for them both. Thanks for your help though - it's always better to be prepared I think.

The word is DO-GOODERS

*Apologies Aidan for not answering your question above, I note Spendius did so, but I would have been unable to. I can only speak for downunder where strict dress rules dress rules are a thing of the past, wear what you like seems to be the general attitude now.

IMPALPABLE

I made PATRICIA a large Pimms and before long---eeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!!

The basic rule for ladies' dress at weddings is that none should attempt to distract attention from the bride. "Wear what you like" opens the door to attention seekers and other recalcitrant, rebellious malcontents. Then respect is drained from the ceremony and the institution.

PATRICIA

Please apply THEMATIC recapitulation in compositionally inserted adagios.

That's okay Dutchy. I thought maybe since Australia is still part of the British commonwealth that some of your customs would be more similar than those of Americans and Brits.
The wedding was lovely. Everyone in the village showed up as the couple who were marrying run the village shop. There were people of all ages dressed from jeans to gowns-it felt like something out of a Thomas Hardy novel- except that I doubt they had steel drum bands back then.
spendius - no one could have upstaged the bride. She wore an off the shoulder, white satin wedding gown with a sparkly veil and as she is a beautiful person inside and out - she personified the word 'radiant'. She looked like something from a fairy tale.
It was a very happy day and I'm very happy for her - her husband is a nice guy too.

The word is THEMATIC (I'll stop talking about the wedding now).

THEMATIC
