How to style this dress

I have this dress for a wedding next weekend, but can't decide how to style it (using existing items in my wardrobe). Options are:

Nudey pink heels, bright pink lip
Or
Bright yellow strappy heels, simple makeup

And hair up or down?

I would go for pink heels, pink lip. It's lovely

I would go for yellow shoes, and gold jewellery if you have any?

And definitely hair up for a dress like that.

I would go yellow shoes, well depending on the style. Can you posts pics? And a very loose up do like the models.

To misquote the Devil Wears Prada - 'Nude/pink heels for a wedding? Groundbreaking.'

Yellow heels, simple make-up would be hands down my choice. When I wear an off-the-shoulder dress, I always wear my up as it shows off the neckline/my shoulders better.

Something to cover your shoulders in church for starters. Then the pink option.

Nude heels might not be groundbreaking but they will let the dress talk, yellow heels would be fighting for attention imo. Bright pink lip is nice measure of colour pop if heels are nude. Hair up as others said.

I like the sound of the yellow heels with that. Gorgeous dress!

🤣 is this the 1800's? Also, who said it was a church wedding?

Hah thanks @Iminaglasscaseofemotion

I almost included in the OP that the sleeves can be pulled up over my shoulders for the (non-church) ceremony to avoid that inevitable comment!

Thanks all! The yellow shoes I have are similar to these.

Should've said - my hair is just above my shoulders. So down option would be wavy. Or up would probably be a hair extension ponytail

I really like orange with green.
If your hair is above your shoulders, it'll look good down.
Gorgeous dress.
