What to wear for a wedding?

We're attending a wedding in Boston in mid-September. (Not summer weather, not freezing either.) GD is a groomsman so he's wearing a tux. I'm not in the wedding party. It's an afternoon wedding. This friend of ours isn't usually about formality, so I know it won't be super uptight, but nice.

I bought a dress but I'm having second thoughts. Here's a bad photo of me in it while in the fitting room. Spoilered for size.

Spoiler:

While the pattern seems dressy enough to me, the fabric and shape are still on the casual side. I'm beginning to worry it won't look nice enough next to a tux.

What do you guys think? It's easy enough to dress for an evening wedding but afternoon ones throw me for a loop. Any other dress advice?
