AIBU?

To ask for really quick opinions?

20 replies

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 15/10/2016 08:29

So I am going to a wedding today. I have been umming and ahing about an outfit and whether or not I can wear it. What do people think? I know that wearing white to a wedding is not ok which is why I am unsure whether to wear this dress. My DM said it's fine because it's floral but I don't want to piss off the bride because she's a good friend.

Help!!

I'd say that was fine, but I hope it's warmer for you than here! Have you got something to cover up with? Black bag is OK with black shoes IMO.

It's fine. Not bridal at all

ihatethecold · 15/10/2016 08:32

You're gonna freeze.

luckylucky24 · 15/10/2016 08:32

Absolutely fine.

Soubriquet · 15/10/2016 08:32

Oh yes that's fine

I wore a white floral dress to my SIL wedding and no one batted an eyelid

Bringmewineandcake · 15/10/2016 08:32

Fine (auto-correct fail)

WussyWat · 15/10/2016 08:33

You'll be freezing, but the pattern and dress are fine for a wedding

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 15/10/2016 08:33

The black bag won't be coming. It's an old picture. I'll have a cardigan as well.

It's fine but hope you have a jacket it's freezing out there

WordGetsAround · 15/10/2016 08:34

I'd wear tights with it!

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 15/10/2016 08:36

I'm planning to wear skin colour tights, pink shoes and a pink cardigan.

If it's anything like here weather-wise you'll need thermals, a puffa jacket, hat, scarf and gloves.

The dress is lovely and not what I'd call a white dress. It will be fine.

Have a lovely time.

Fine. Great choice.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 15/10/2016 08:38

Thank you all. I feel better now.

It's very pretty, you will look lovely but need a wrap or jacket as it's chilly now. Have a good time!

CatMom75 · 15/10/2016 08:39

Absolutely fine. I got married this year and can't remember what any guests wore tbh! I don't get the whole not wearing certain colours at all. Let your guests come, be comfortable and have fun!

Have fun!

elodie2000 · 15/10/2016 09:53

It'll look lovely with pink shoes & cardi! Do you have a cream/ neutral/ pink bag?

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 15/10/2016 10:06

I have a light pink hand bag to go with it.

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 15/10/2016 10:22

No, that's fine. I'm quite good on etiquette because of my DM, who is pretty old school, and that doesn't count as a white dress. It's floral.
