Is it ugly to wear a bolero with a gown? I’m a guest at a wedding, and I’d like to hide my arms. What are good alternatives?

No, a bolero or lovely scarf is fine - wear what you love! Totally normal for warmth with a gown.

Have you looked for a gown with sleeves? If you already have a sleeveless gown and aren’t looking to buy a new one, I think this is perfectly fine

It’s not ugly but I’ve always felt like a very old lady when I wear one. If a new dress is an option I’d look for dresses with bell sleeves, bishop sleeves or kimono sleeves— they will still be stylish dresses and arms will be covered.

This outfit looks cute! Something similar to this would be nice and also modest.

I find the knot front style in this photo makes it look informal so I'd just be careful about the specific way I was wearing it compared to the wedding dress code

Maybe a dressier one like below or a light bolero cardigan? I think the one you posted is great, just another option.
