Wearing a hat at a wedding & wearing a hat during the ceremony are two different things. Personally I wouldn't wear a hat walking my daughter down the aisle nor would I wear one whilst seated during the nuptials, however, wearing one before & after the ceremony, including for the obligatory pics, wouldn't pose a problem. I'm presuming that this will be some kind of religious event, so even if it is outside, just do what you would do if it was held in a church.
Also if the groom is going to be hatless, you wouldn't want to outdo him & steal his thunder on the greatest day of his life.
^^^Having been thru 2 weddings with 2 daughters this is sound advice. Unless this is to be a Texas BBQ remember this is a religious occasion, whether inside or out. So it might be okay to wear a hat to & from the ceremony, & perhaps in a picture with wife & daughter, unless a hat has some significance to the religious service I would not wear it during the "walk" or while sitting front & center. Second thoughts & regrets will long outlive your current interest in hats. Don't make the mistake of making the day & all the talk about you. You will be nervous enough, believe me.Wearing a hat at a wedding & wearing a hat during the ceremony are two different things.

Zactly!!!
It's not a day that should be about the father.
I wore my hat at my daughters wedding.
Major Moore made the hat, Art Fawcett furnished the ribbon.
My daughter insisted I wear one as no one would know me without it.
I removed it at the appropriate time.
The wedding was postponed from April 24th to July 25th. If we had it in April we could only have 10 people present. As it stands we only had 92 which was about half those who originally RSVP'd. All do to COVID-19.
Well said, absolutely fabulous. What a delightful photo.
