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

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

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. Grin

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

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. Smile

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!

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.

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.
