Hi there. It's hard to say what his intentions are, so you are going to have to wait till the day to see how things pan out between you.
As you already chat with him on Facebook, it's not like you are complete strangers, is it?
So you at least know that you get along well enough to chat in the first place.
The chances are, you will be able to talk easily to each other when you actually see each other face to face.
When you chat to him next, just ask him what the dress code is.
Regardless of modern times, most people out of respect dress kind of semi formal. Men usually wear suits and women are fairly dressy - not over the top - But something you can wear again. You might not have to go out and buy something new. When you look through your wardrobe you could find you already have something smart to wear.
Nothing too revealing or too short. And comfortable shoes, so you can dance if you want to. So maybe not too high a heel.
If you have to buy something, go to a dress shop that sells outfits for all occasions - casual up to semi formal or even full formal. Then you can't go wrong.
Like don't go to a streetwear shop, because they won't have the type of outfit you are looking for. Too casual.
If you have some time to spare between now and then, whenever you are out and about, have a bit of a look around at some of the more upmarket dress shops to at least get some ideas of what's around. It will also help you to get an idea on price.
Then after you've been to a few shops, then you can decide on what you want.
In deciding, be careful to choose an outfit that you definitely can wear again - not something that will just sit in your wardrobe until you go to another wedding. That would be a waste of money. You want to get your money's worth after all.
On the night, just act like friends and enjoy yourself. Without any expectation. And see how it goes.
Then go from there.
If you have a really great time together, he might want to see you again - you just never know.
Good luck!
