Colombia/Wedding Clothes

Question
What would be the most appropriate kind of shirt for a gringo to wear at his
Colombian wedding? The wedding will take place at a Notaria, and a reception
will be held at someone's home afterward. I am told that it will be warm and
humid. Is there a type of shirt that would be less warm than others in these
conditions? Thanks for your help.

Answer
Hi Bruce,
First of all I am sorry for the delay in my response, I have been traveling due to a family emergency.
What you need is a guayabera, a fancy one of course, this is a typical shirt for hot weather.
Should you need help in getting a very nice one, please email me at info@colombianpossibilities.com
Thanks
Marta
