How casual is too casual for a spring wedding?

[WhatTheWhoTheWhatThe]

Have bought a jumpsuit but I think it might be a bit too casual (although the wedding isn’t a hugely formal affair).

I was hoping to get away with something inexpensive that I can wear again in a more casual setting rather than have another dress hanging in the wardrobe only worn once.

Is this too too casual or could I dress it up?

Silkfred quality is awful, very overpriced for what you get, it's more like boohoo quality.
I would look to shop elsewhere quite honestly for a wedding outfit, however I think a smart jumpsuit could work if glammed up with heels and your hair and makeup done.

I was thinking that looked quite nice. However I don't have any experience of Silkfred. I would wear a fascinator or hat with it and bold jewellery.

I’d more wear that to paint rather than a wedding! I got a lovely jumpsuit from axparis

I really don’t like that for a wedding op. Really casual and colour seems drab to me. You could try Vinted to buy or sell the dress afterwards? I’ve become a bit obsessed with getting bargains on there.

Yes to a jumpsuit but not that one. Their are so many more spring like patterned ones out there.

Why buy a new outfit?
No one remembers (or cares) what you wear but that jump suit looks very casual ... I recently attended a wedding and the range of outfits was huge, some people clearly dressed up, others in trainers and casual trousers .... surely you have a nice dress in your wardrobe you can wear? It doesn't have to be 'new'.

I’d say it’s a bit casual- personally I always think a button up collar doesn’t fit with weddings but I don’t know why I self impose that rule!

I actually really don’t! I lost a lot of weight a few years back so got rid of 90% of my clothes so between that and limited social occasions due to covid over the last two years I just don’t own that type of clothing anymore! Believe me I don’t want to buy new hence looking for something that can be worn at other times!

What have you got from previous weddings hanging in the wardrobe? I think you can probably do better than that particular jumpsuit by shopping your wardrobe.

Opps, xposts.
Ok, not recycling your wardrobe, but I personally wouldn't go for that particular jumpsuit either.

People really should just live in sin and invite friends to the pub to celebrate that instead

Not appropriate. And too 'going on safari' generally. Sorry.

Not very weddingy, but is literally your party OP, do whatever you like 😁

I’d go for a floaty summer dress from monsoon or something but this is your call.

It’s not my wedding just to clarify!!!

Just thread my title and OP and it does sound like it could be my wedding 🙈 should have clarified I’m a guest!

It looks a bit casual to me but I’m all for wear whatever works for you and wont offend the bride and groom. If you have a very limited wardrobe after weight loss is a cream jumpsuit a great ‘wear again’?

Silkfred are definately not high end but my mun has a few things from them including a (gorgeous) jumpsuit she wore to my brothers wedding and there were no quality problems.

Dependeth how casual the wedding is. My nuptials were very casual, I really was happy to have everyone there.

MN weddings though? There's a thing!

They'll probably lynch you for the 'too white'.

(Because you will obviously be mistaken for the bride if you're not in a floral midi).

I wore a jumpsuit to a wedding last year - a plain green one. Although it didn't have the buttons/sleeve cuffs that are giving that one a bit of a safari look... I dressed it up with heels, leather belt, jewellery, nice nails. I looked less formal than the other guests but the bride told me I looked nice, I don't think she cared about "formal"! I was comfortable and the jumpsuit is good for other occasions and didn't break the bank. If you feel confident, go for it. I am happy to be the only woman not wearing a dress and fascinator - so not my style!
