To wear a red and white dress to a wedding?

[lyns86x]

It's red with white flowers? I'll probably go for white heels and a nude clutch bag, just super stressed white is off limits! Thoughts please ladies...

I just wore a blue and white dress, I felt that blue was the predominant colour and it was fine.

Nah that's fine, as long as it's not all or mostly white

Sounds fine (unless bridesmaids are in the same red!)

Show us the dress.

I am sure it will be fine!

Depends which set of photos you are likely to be in and where you stand - you don't want to upstage everybody else, which red can do sometimes!

It is this dress..
Note I am fatter and shorter than model so it doesn't look so casual on me

Thats a red dress so def not too white...

Ah it’s lovely. And great for a wedding.

Lovely dress and suitable in my opinion.

That's perfectly fine for a wedding

Really lovely, I'm sure that can be dressed up really well for a wedding.

That's nice! I'd be cautious that white shoes are likely to get ruined though?

Its a red dress
But a bit to casual for a wedding imo though

What do you do at weddings?!
Presumably it's a summer wedding. White shoes will be fine!

Red & white are the colours for death in a church I think . It's a lovely dress but possibly to casual for a wedding
I'd choose something else to wear if I had a choice

It's clearly not a white dress. I also agree its a bit casual for a wedding..

Thanks all.

I never said it was white, even the title says red and white.. some of you ladies on here do make me chuckle.

I really like it on me so am definitely going to wear it!! Xx

My Granny would say blood and bandages - she wouldnt have red and while flowers in the same room.

Looks lovely - enjoy

Given that our church has red carpet, red pew cushions, white walls and white altar cloths (and red trimmings on the major festivals) I don't think anyone's going to be thinking DEATH!! on sight of that dress.

Fabric is absolutely fine. The length on the model is a bit eye-opening for a wedding, but you say it's not the same on you.

Why does your body type make the dress look less casual on you? It's a pretty casual dress for a wedding, unless it's a more casual wedding.

check with your Priest , let’s see what they say
it’s was considered as bad as wearing white but the @lyns86x is going to wear it anyway so it’s completely irrelevant now …..

So would mine but only regarding flowers

Also blue and green should not be seen except upon the queen

I think it's a lovely dress

Red & white are the colours for death in a church I think
Eh? Been a churchgoer all my life, with multiple generations of clergy. Never heard anyone say red and white are associated with death.

Dress is very nice and totally fine for a wedding.

My florist pulled me aside and mentioned the blood and bandages thing when I wanted red flowers for me and white for bridesmaids. As it happened the wedding never took place, so it didn’t matter (I would’ve had them regardless).

I get married later this year and it won't bother me if someone wears a completely white dress to the wedding to be honest, I mean it's hardly going to be a wedding dress is it so, anything else is fine! You've found something you like and you're happy in it so those are the most important requirements in my opinion :)
