To wear white to a wedding?

Family wedding later in the year - WIBU to wear this dress? Fully prepared to be told I am if it's unsuitable! Don't know if it's relevant but it's an older bride / second wedding and she's not wearing a conventional wedding dress. Might make this less ok to wear as it's white / floral? Can't decide if it's an issue!

It looks more cream to me! I think you'll definitely be okay with it

I was expecting full on white from your title. It's fine, it's very floral and lovely for a wedding.

Looks totally fine to me - have fun!

PanPanPanPing · 26/07/2018 17:18

I wouldn't call that a white dress anyway. It is, as you say, a floral dress. Absolutely fine in my eyes - and it's very pretty!

TheShapeOfEwe · 26/07/2018 17:18

Thank you all 😅 I wanted it for another event anyway but if I have two things to wear it to I can definitely justify it!

That’s fine.

Great dress, it’s perfect for a wedding!

Trinity66 · 26/07/2018 17:19

You can have a dress with white in it, just not all white Grin

Move2WY · 26/07/2018 17:19

TThats not a white dress.

haribosmarties · 26/07/2018 17:19

Thats fine as its not mainly white it just has a white background and is mostly covered in colour. And its short. I think its totally fine

redexpat · 26/07/2018 17:19

Plain white not ok. That dress does not say bride so its ok.

FlyingDandelionSeed · 26/07/2018 17:19

Ywbu to wear white, but that's fine.

sonjadog · 26/07/2018 17:20

Do you know what the bride is wearing? I’d check just in case her non-conventional dress is just like this one...

cariadlet · 26/07/2018 17:47

plain white dress to a wedding - totally unacceptable.

Floral dress with a white background - fine. It looks lovely, and I'm sure you'll look lovely wearing it.

sonjadog good point! I will ask MIL. Thank you everyone for your reassurances! Flowers
