I have looked through all of the forums about a 2nd dress and have not found anyone with a situation similar to mine. I bought my dress a year ago. It's a full ballgown with a lot of layers on the skirt and a long train. I just had it altered (with a bustle) and go pick it up tonight. But I was just made aware that it is 99% certain that our venue will have to move my reception outside due to COVID and my guest list being above 50. October 3rd in Arizona...yeah...
So, now I'm concerned that I am going to be so hot in it. I'm 100% wearing it for the ceremony because my mom paid for it but I'm worried it'll be too hot to spend another few hours in 90 degree weather in addition to dancing. It's supposed to get down to the 60s once the sun starts to go down but if you have ever been to AZ you know that's still hot!
Thinking about getting a 2nd dress just so I don't get over heated and possibly sick. But I'm not even sure what to begin to look for in a 2nd dress and I have just over a month! Has anyone been in this situation where their reception needed to be outside in warm weather and wore a dress you sweated your butt off just standing for alterations?
