What do you wear to an evening reception?

[LurkeyLurkerson]

Sorry if it's a bit of a stupid question but the (few) only weddings I've been to I've been an all day guest.

I'm due to go to an evening reception on Friday night. I have this dress which I wore to two christenings recently, is it too 'all day weddingy' IYSWIM? Or should I be going a bit more casual?

I think it is lovely. I take any opportunity to dress up as it doesn't happen very often!

I would wear a cocktail dress.

[MrsCampbellBlack]

It so depends on how formal/dressy the wedding is [helpful]

I'd have thought that dress would be fine though.

Takes me to title page. Name of dress?

[suburbandweller]

That dress looks perfect. I've been to lots of evening dos and always wear either the same type of dress I would wear if I were invited to the day, or something a bit more cocktail partyish.

Thank you for the advice! Impossibly it's called Fleur Print Dress 1533228410

I think I'll wear it then, after all as dexter says, any opportunity to wear a nice frock!
