Jamaica 4 PM Church Wedding Attire -next week

I'm attending a wedding next weekend in Jamaica as the guest of my boyfriend. The wedding is at 4 PM Saturday in a local church and the attire is "snappy casual." My question is about the appropriateness of bare shoulders (spaghetti straps or a halter neckline) and some decollete' in a church?

This is going to be my first introduction to everyone in the wedding party -I'm unsure of how laid-back they are, and don't want to offend anyone. However, it will certainly be quite warm, which makes me wonder if a wrap will look out of place?

Any advice is much appreciated! =)

Dear Guest,

Snappy Casual is a first for me. But, people are always adding new names for dress codes.

It is always appropriate to dress conservative in a church. So, no revealing attire.

Best wishes,
