Hard Hold Styling Product (for Wedding Hair)

Hi curlies!
I am getting married later this year and I am looking for a styling product that meets quite a few requirements. As such, I would appreciate your recommendations.
My requirements are:
A wish would be that it is as natural as possible, but the list above has more priority.
My self-assessed hair properties are: fine, low porosity, and medium to low elasticity.
On a day to day basis, I use KCCC as my styling product. I wash my hair once a week with SheaMoisture Fruit Fusion Coconut Water Weightless Shampoo and detangle with KCKT mixed with some Colorful Neutral Protein Filler. Those are literally the only products I own and use.
Last thing that might be good to know is that I am based in the Netherlands and sometimes cannot get hold of the products suggested. Just so you know :-)
Looking forward to hearing your suggestions!

My requirements are:
- that it's CG;
- that it will hold all day;
- that it has no sulphates, silicones, polyquats or parabens;
- that it is not too heavy/that it doesn't weigh down.

If you can't find it where you are, here are the ingredients, maybe you can find something with a similar ingredient profile:
Aqua (Water), PVP, Sorbitol, Carbomer,Keratin Amino Acids, Panthenyl Ethyl Ether, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Glyceryl Polymethacrylate, Propylene Glycol, Glycerin, Oleth-20, Rahnella/Soy Protein Ferment,Aminomethyl Propanol, PEG-8, Tetrasodium EDTA, Benzophenone-4, Methylparaben, Diazolidinyl Urea
Obviously, it's not the most natural thing out there, but it does work.

Live in Canada- hot summers, freezing winters- dry dry dry
As I am cleansing pudding, soultanicals deep condish, curlsmith cowash, lhdc condish
KCCC, curlsmith soufflé, ufdcm, mga sculpting gel
Scrunch with hair repear towel, then diffuse or air
Protein- Cnpf
Flaxseed, takes some trial and error depending on the hairtype but gives no crunch, soft hold and and is very moisturizing.
but it does contain proteins and I don’t think your low porosity hair would like that
Or the Mielle Organics Honey and Ginger Gel with a watered down leave in (or a spray).
Or probably the mane choice I know they have products that are targeted at wavy, curly and coils textures, possibly a mousse of you are up for it? I know their Pink Lemonade line is pretty light (for me at least), you can look into that.
trying my best! Not really used to helping wurlies (wavy curls or curlier waves) being like a 3c
Personally I suggest experimenting with whichever you see to be most favorable and try to get the amount right, whilst seeing how long it lasts.
Also, congrats!
I've looked into LA Looks Sports Gel and Max Green Alchemy, but unfortunately I can get them here; either they don't ship here or shipping is ridiculously expensive (think over $40 just for the shipping).
My hair looooves flaxseed gel! But it has a soft hold that I know won't last me the full day. Mielle Organics Honey and Ginger Gel is not available here. The Mane Choice is, although not their Pink Lemonade line.
Regardless, I really appreciate your input!
I also saw a thread about BRHG. Although not quite as natural as I'd like, it should be available here (on ground even), but I know it can make your hair stringy/prevent clumps from happening. I might give it a go though.
Also, it's likely I will end up using hairspray just to be sure, but I would like to avoid it. I'll have a test run anyway so I know whether or not I need hairspray.
