The earlier in the day the ceremony, the less dressy the dress code. A four o’clock wedding that is not a ‘formal’ wedding, would call for knee-length dresses. Except of course for the bride, who can wear a bridal gown or whatever she wants — on her special day.

The mother-of-the-bride would wear either a wonderful knee-length dress, a lovely fitted sheath with a jacket, or a chic, dressy skirt-suit, often called a dinner suit.
