Attending the service of a loved one is something that can really make a difference. If the service will take place outdoors, however, it can be tough to know what to wear that will not make you uncomfortable but will still be appropriate. If that is something you are worrying about, it can help to know a few tips. Here are the things that directors of funeral homes in West Union, SC<\/a> want you to know.<\/p>\n

Women can go sleeveless. In the past, sleeveless outfits were frowned on, but now they are acceptable at a summer service. Keep in mind that you want to choose an outfit that is not too revealing or that is too casual. You want to stick to options that have a more conservative cut, even if they are sleeveless. If you do not want to wear something completely without sleeves, you can choose an option that has cap sleeves or something similar.<\/p>\n

The first thing you want to remember is that you need to choose the correct fabrics for an outdoor service in the heat. This can be more difficult for men than women since suits are more difficult to find that are made of other materials than wool. You can go for linen, of course, but be sure that the cut is formal and that it does not look like a suit you would wear on vacation. The same thing applies to women. You can choose linen or cotton options, but you want to ensure they are formal.<\/p>\n

\"funeralBlack is customary but you do not have to wear that to a summer service. Most people will choose to wear some other somber color, like shades of blue or green. You can also wear gray. It is important to avoid any colors that are too bright or patterns that are very busy. The last thing you want is to distract from the service. Just remember to choose something that will not make you uncomfortable in the heat.<\/p>\n

Another thing you want to remember is that accessories can enhance an outfit, but hats and scarves need to be light for an outdoor service. The last thing you want is to feel light-headed from the heat. You can choose hats and scarves made out of light materials that can complete the look but that will not make the heat worse. For people who want to show respect by having their hair covered, this can make a difference.<\/p>\n

When choosing the outfit you want to wear to an outdoor service<\/a>, these are important things to remember. You do not want to be disrespectful, and you do not want to offend anyone, so be sure to choose options that are on the conservative side.
