Is this too white to wear to a wedding?

[SunflowerGardens]

So I bought this dress to wear to a wedding, just tried it on, it's amazing and I'm in love. And then it suddenly struck me that it's white? White with yellow and green flowers on - is that ok? Or is it too white?

I do have another dress I can wear but it has black in it and I was hoping to wear something more summery. Definitely do not want to wear anything controversial though!

I'm charging! I'm up to 15%

Are you in Ireland? (Asking because I am… and Dunnes). Can you not get something delivered through Zara or M&S and return if you need to?

Good woman

I like the dress 😊
No clue about weddings though.

I am yes and I can't because the wedding is tomorrow and I left it until tonight to go shopping

Is this seriously an issue? The bride is in a bridal gown, you’re in a pretty, summer dress with yellow and green.

If it is an issue, sone people really need to get over themselves.

As for those saying not formal enough, we sometimes see wedding guests tripping out of our local church (6 doors away) on diamanté encrusted, 4” heels with low cut/slashed to the thigh evening gowns and fascinators at 11am on a sunny, June/July morning and they just look daft.

a pretty, summer dress of whatever colour is so much more appropriate and does absolutely nothing to (try to) distract from the bride, who is the lady it’s all about that day.

Do you have a blazer you could put with it to give it a pop of colour and make it not so white looking

The pink one is better for a wedding, but seems like an odd choice for an 'evening only' invitation.

hope you have a good time, whatever you wear!!

Can you post a picture of you in the dress? Very hard to judge the nightyness with the model

Defo not formal enough for an Irish wedding imo OP. Sorry 💕

I think it's nice and formal enough for an evening do or summery wedding, I hate the idea everyone has to get trussed up in structured dresses. It's quite an old fashioned view IMO.

However, it is quite white and it could look a bit strange in photos. If you accessorised carefully you'd probably be ok but depends on the bride and her style.

I agree

We have vastly different definitions of 'formal'. 😳

Too white and too casual for a wedding.

If it really suits you and you accessorize well it might be ok. But in all honesty it looks like a casual day dress. It is a little too white too. Enjoy the wedding!

I don’t think it’s too white at all, it’s a lovely summery dress. I’d definitely wear it.

Lovely dress - I think it’s fine with the pattern.
especially if you pair it with coloured shoes
/ hat / bag

nope, seems to be the norm here, though 😁

what would you suggest, then, cocktail dress/ball gown? (both of which would look equally daft at church).

I think OP’s dress is lovely for a summer wedding.

Too white and too causal

It is a bit casual but we are only going to the evening bit.

In that case I think it’s fine.

I always think in these situations; if you have to ask then yes, it’s too white.
It’s a lovely dress and there’s probably a 99% chance it would be no problem, especially with the floral too, but I wouldn’t take the risk for someone’s big day, when there are so many other colours and options. Like even if you think “oh it’s my friend so-and-so and she’s so laid back!” or “it’s my cousin X and she’s wearing ivory anyway!” You just never know.

For the evening bit only, I think it’s fine, tbh, especially if it’s not too hot to add a wrap/jacket/cardigan in a colour.

I'd say too white I'm afraid as from thumbnail on my phone I couldn't see any detail other than a white dress, so I'm guessing any photos of the day would also suggest this. Can you wear it for another event?

Yeah I actually don't know her that well, it's the husband we are friendly with really so I think I'll err on the side of caution.

I don’t think it’s too white at all and definitely formal enough for the night do. I wouldn’t of thought anything if someone wore this to my wedding!
