Wedding Guest Outfit Etiquette

Going to a wedding this summer.

Saw this dress, which I quite liked - but while it's very obviously NOT a wedding dress, it does still has quite a bit of white.

Etiquette wise... is this an ok wedding guest dress, or should I steer clear of white altogether?

Oh mate it’s fine. You’re way overthinking

freeandfierce · 05/06/2022 12:40

It's lovely, go for it!

KimikosNightmare · 05/06/2022 12:40

Way overthinking. It's bright orange. It's fine.

What Cod said.

There’s no issue with white, the issue is about all white because it’s traditionally bridal. Would someone mistake you for a traditional bride in that? No, so no problem!

I think that's quite acceptable to wear as a wedding guest.

That's a lovely dress for a wedding guest. All good!

Thanks all 🥰 You're right, overthinking!

That's perfect for a wedding guest.

It's lovely, and nothing bridal about it at all - which is why people advise guests not to wear white.
