I’ve got a funeral to o to on thursday, now i’ve been to many over the years but can’t remember ever going to any in this kinda heat, so my question is…should i wear a jacket of some description or fine in a shirt and tie?!
Yeah so long as you’re smartly/respectfully dressed I’d say that was ok. Been to a fair few these last few years and dress codes seem to be much less of a thing than they were.
(In answer to the OP going without a jacket is absolutely fine but of course it depends on whose funeral it is and what their family are like above all else)
Yeah, it’s really petty but I have memories of a friends husband turning up to our mates funeral in jeans and have had a dim opinion of him ever since.
My Dad told me about his friends funeral where everyone wore striped socks and bright colours because that’s how he always dressed. I saw a group photo of everyone from the funeral (edit: OOPS) and my Dad was the ONLY one wearing black. To be fair, he was just wearing his normal clothes It was really nice anyway.
