Is it ok to wear a cream dress to a wedding?

[moomiemoo]

Have got a gorgeous short dress that's cream and am worried that cream/White is reserved for the bride only??

Thinking of accessorizing with blue/purple?

Am very so any advice would be great.

Have you got a link to the dress?

Both my SIL and Great Auntie wore cream to my wedding two weeks ago and a friend wore cream to the evening do. They all looked ok.

yes - as long as you accessorise with a colour

hope this works....

Thought I could replace the belt bit with a brightly coloured ribbon...

I think that'd be fine tbh because its not too wedding dressy iyswim? At a wedding I went to someone turned up in a floor length white dress ... which was awkward enough until someone at the hotel afterwards wished her a happy wedding day ...

could you dye the dress?

That is a pretty dress! It looks quite pinkish rather than cream.

TBH it's a bit difficult ATM because all the fashions for summer have been nude colours.

Do you know what the bride is wearing?

I had the traditional sort of dress for my wedding so I stood out as the bride but had I not been wearing something so traditional (we got married in Gretna Green) I might have not been quite so comfortable with other people being in cream.

Honestly - I wouldn't.

I wouldn't have cared if anyone wore cream/white to my wedding - in fact maybe someone did, who knows! I certainly can't remember if they did - however some brides are really funny about these things, and I just wouldn't risk it. Unless you know the bride well enough to ask.

I think as long as you accessorize it a but with other colours and don't wear a tiara and veil you'll be fine

I do know the bride well - my dds are bridesmaids!!

She's wearing a floor length quite fitted lacy dress. We're going down a couple of days before the wedding so might ask her and will take my other option of a green maxi dress.

Was thinking about dying the dress but love the colour for another event!

It'll be fine especially with brightly coloured shoes etc.

at the tiara!

I think you should just ask her then. I would certainly have told you to wear it and not dye a dress you love! I expect she'll say the same.

Thanks. Will ask her about the dress but leave the tiara at home

My sister wore cream to my wedding, though
she did ask me and I said it was OK (reluctantly).

In the photos it looks odd because it was a small wedding it looks like there are two brides!

I would ask, and look for any hesitation on her part if she says yes!.

Looks very short!

I like the idea of swapping the belt for a coloured ribbon, with a coloured shawl or cardie or something it'll be fine.

I like it. Wear what you want. Any Bride who is that anal should be wound up anyway!

trillian does look very short in the picture I think because model is so tall unlike me!

Have just remembered there's a rehersal dinner the night before so think I'll wear cream for that and green for the wedding.
