Wearing destination wedding dress to at home reception

My fiance and I have both previously been married and are having a small beach destination wedding ceremony in Hawaii. I have a simple ankle length dress to wear on that day. However, we are having a large reception two weeks following. What would I wear? The same dress that I will wear in Hawaii? A different but equally nice white dress or a casual non-white cocktail dress? Do I carry a bouquet during the reception? Any help you can offer would be very much appreciated!

Sincerely,
Tina

Dear Tina,

No worries. You can wear anything you wish. Some will wear their wedding gowns as some guests wish to see them in their gowns. But, it is optional.

The bouquet is not necessary and tossing it may seem a bit odd for the delayed reception.

Best wishes,
