formal or informal second wedding dress?

This is a second wedding for both of us, and we have 5 children between us who will be there. It will be small, maybe 50 guests, ceremony outside and reception inside. How formal should dress be or not. I am choosing between informal that is long, or more nontraditional, Jessica McClintock abigail. He will wear a suit. Smile

Dear Dressing for the Wedding,

Honestly, it is your choice. Your gown should reflect the formality of your event. So, if your groom is wearing a suit, your gown could be either of your choices. I probably wouldn't wear a full length gown though. Tea length would be the longest because a suit indicates that the wedding is not formal.

Best wishes,
