What would you wear to get married in a registry office?

[jumperooo]

I'm looking for inspiration!

a wedding dress?

I did

Evening dress?

I did

Carrie's satc suit from the movie

I would wear absolutely anything I wanted to wear. If that happened to be a fairy tale wedding dress then so be it. For me now, I would wear a really beautiful suit or very smart dress, heels, the whole bit with perhaps a different dress for dancing in at the evening do (if there is one).

Your wedding, your choice!

I wore a smart dress, hat and high heels. I'd already done the white dress thing and this time it was for me. Wear what you want to (bearing in mind someone is sure to criticise!)

I have friends who have done the big meringue, my sister wore smart but comfy and another friend bought a new T short and polished her DMs for the occasion.

T shirt...doh!

I wore a burnt orange long silk dress with a red chiffon coat! Orange, red and purple flowers.

Always fancied doing the Bianca Jagger 'white suit and floppy hat' thing. It would need to be a YSL suit though.

I wore a white Bianca Jagger-style suit

No way!!! Respect.

Whirling turban dress with a hat with a veil and some lovely lovely shoes

I wore a bright green silk knee length dress from Biba (at HoF) and had my hair curled and dried in a very 70s esque way.

A long-sleeved, tea length, 50's-esque lace wedding dress. And fabulous shoes!

I got married in the registry office and wire a lovely ivory wedding dress, was not compromising for no one lol,

Lol wore, not wire! X

I wore a red jersey dress with cap sleeves, a purple cardigan & 3/4 length leggings. Can't remember what DP wore, jeans & a shirt, possibly? We had about 4 friends & DD there.

It wasn't our "wedding" though - we had a ceremony a week later & I wore a long white dress for that.

You can wear whatever you like - you can't get it wrong

I personally would probably wear something 50s or 60s inspired, not really sure why!

Just remembered that when my parents got married at a registry office my mum wore a jersey knitted by my dad's first wife. Totally subconsciously - just because it was a nice jersey...

I'd wear something like this with a pair of super bright killer heels

It depends what time of year you're getting married, but I love that Bianca Jagger idea - so classy!

My mum got married in the early 60s at a registry office and went with the suit. Hers was a Jackie O Chanel style one with white gloves and a little posy with a lucky sweep. I think she might have worn a hat, but I'm not too sure because she had a very bouffant beehive at the time.

She looked pretty darn awesome.

I wore an ivory lace knee length long sleeved Tiffany Rose maternity dress. Us and two witnesses. Got a few comments about having fancy flowers at such a small (surprise) wedding, but I wanted them! Do exactly what you want and congratulations!

Ps I was going to wear a cheap long white jersey sundress but DH hated it and I'm glad now I went for something I felt amazing in.

I wore an emerald green silk 1950s halter neck style dress. :)

Although to be fair, when we were waiting to go in an old lady pottered up to me and said 'Is this a wedding? Which one of you is the bride?' then looked me up and down with disgust and said 'Are you sure?' when I said that it was me so perhaps I could have made a bit more effort. ;(

I wore a dress, a hat & nice shoes

But you can wear what you fancy!

What else are you planning on doing that day? The registry office can take anything in its stride - it's your wedding and you set the tone. But I didn't want to change, so to me what matters is how you want to dress for the pub lunch / black tie dinner dance afterwards.
