Which dress for a wedding guest? A or B

[hazeydays14]

Hi all

I've got an autumn wedding to go to soon. It's a church service followed by a reception in a Manor House type place.

Please help me choose:
Option A
Or
Option B

Thanks!

If you prefer bodycon dresses to skater style, I still think that the two you've suggested don't suit the style of wedding you've been invited to. With that in mind, how about these as alternatives:

Dress A

Dress B

Dress C

Dress D

I love this and think with a cream blazer over the top,would work for both church and evening reception,

dress a or c in cats last poat are gorgeous.

like the other ops link but wouldnt wear for a wedding.

callit oops.

This is also lovely.

Cheap dresses don't always look cheap. I have had some absolute bargains that look 3/4x the price.

Also this is gorgeous but you'd need a black nipped in jacket for during the day due to the low back

And if you really want red, this is nice.

I don't like strappy bare shouldered dresses for church/day time weddings. I did like the navy lacy one in the first set of alternatives and the cream/brown one is stunning.

Sorry but I also don't think they're very wedding. They're very look at me and my amazing body - you just don't do that at a wedding, especially not a formal one.

I would suggest that you keep looking, they are not very weddingy

I don't think the wedding is as formal as it sounds, think twine, wooden signs and flowers from the invites but I'd like to be church appropriate!
Thanks again Callit! Still prefer the navy one from the first lot..

Bluntness I think most of the dresses you've suggested are more revealing than my originals

dress 2 (or B)!

Hmm - I think Bluntness is going further from the ideal than the original suggestions from OP

Possibly,,,quite like them though

Oh I love the red dress Bluntness posted! Love it. Please buy it.

I think they'll look nice with a lovely coat for the main service and a hat. Personally A with nice heels and hair

I was looking for a swing coat to post up but can't

Definitely go with one of WhatchaMaCalllit's suggestions.

I don't think a lot of Bluntness100's choices are appropriate.

Hmm - looks to me as though the skirt slit on your option B is threatening to split further in the ASOS video. It's a nice dress otherwise.

Either the Talulah and Lavish Alice dresses Bluntness posted look good. If not, how about Zara velvet - print or plain

What- the blue dress C is gorgeous.

The green velvet dress is amazing but can I get away with wearing gloves because the touching velvet makes me shudder

Neither really. I think they are too clubby.
If I had to chosen I'd opt for B

Op, being a guest at a formal wedding you don't want to attract the wrong kind of attention to yourself. I'd stay away from cleavage, bare shoulders, bodycon or too short (above the knee is fine) or see through. Please don't try to look sexy. It really is not that kind of party and seems very tacky. In a lot of peoples eyes you would be that friend if you wear these kind of dresses to a wedding. To a different kind of party would be fine of course.

I like whatcha dress b very much, and I'll admit I do rather like some bluntness suggestions, especially the tallulah dress, although perhaps not for a wedding.
