Can I wear burgundy to a spring wedding?

I think maybe not as it's usually more an autumn/winter colour but I love this dress

It's a lovely dress but definitely autumnal, sadly.

I thought so :( they do it in a blush or pale blue too but obviously full price

Why ever not? People worry far too much about this sort of thing. If it suits you and you feel good in it, wear it! I've got linen shift dresses that are definitely summer wear in navy and black. Not everyone suits pastels.

I have similar colouring to the model and think I'd wear a blush pink hatinator, shoes, bag with it.

I do already have a pale blue lace dress so maybe I should reuse that instead.

Decisions...

Agree, if it suits your colouring, then wear it. I adore burgundy!

I don't see why not - I had people head to toe in black at my July wedding on a VERY hot day! You could always lighten it up with a lighter coloured belt / shoes - maybe nude?

Are you the bride or the groom ? If not, it will be fine.

It's lovely.

I think as long as u wear blush/nude/gold accessories it would be fine. Especially a scrappy sandal rather than a court shoe

@IM0GEN sorry, is asking about style to trivial for the style and beauty section

Too*

Oh yes, gold strappy sandals are a good shout!

It’s a nice dress, But definitely autumnal. However it can still be quite cold in spring, so maybe a ‘winter’ dress could be a good choice?

You must have me confused with another poster - I didn’t say anything about triviality.

It's pretty and agree with PPs you shouldn't worry about wearing autumnal colours in spring. If it's a British wedding it could easily cold and wet.

But really, if you have a blue lace dress that you still like then wear it. Don't feel like you have to buy a new dress if you don't need to.

Sorry, I must have misread the tone of your post

I don't see a problem with the colour at all.

It's very nice, I think it looks better in the wine than the pale blue. (Especially if anyone is likely to tip a glass of red on you at the reception - pale colours with no pattern can be risky.)

@ErrolTheDragon I agree that the dress itself looks better in the burgundy. Maybe I should just buy it and keep it for any events / parties in autumn / winter

I don’t know anyone in RL who overthinks this wedding guest outfit stuff. Just wear what you like and if it suits you then even better! Just don’t wear an actual wedding dress!

Of course you can. I love that colour.

Yes!!! You could wear that any time of the year. It is beautiful. I agree with PPs, gold or nude accessories. Or blush pink as you said yourself. Love this dress!!

I think its a bit dark for Spring. Obviously you can wear it but I think you could find something better.

Of course you can wear it - as long as it is a colour that suits you .

It’s fine! It’s better to wear a colour that suits you rather than wear pastels just because it’s the ‘done thing’.
