Could I wear this to get married in? I'm getting married abroad though so I don't know if I will regret not having a strapless style dress.

We are going for a low key micro wedding with nice meal after. Just a few guests if they can make it. If not just us and our children.

Definitely! I wore a dress from Reiss for my wedding and don't regret not getting a "specific" wedding dress.

Light pastels sometimes photograph as white.

This - ask the Princess of Wales. The ‘did she wear pale yellow or white to H&M’s wedding’ argument is still rumbling on in obscure corners of the internet.

The popularity of strapless wedding dresses is mystifying, given they really only suit the small-breasted and thin-shouldered.

And yet they have always been, and still are, favoured by the fat of arm and capacious of bosom.

Love it, OP.

@pollyglot - I should not laugh as everyone must choose what they will but the dress @PrettyMuchUseless I think is very elegant

All congratulations OP And I think that dress will look beautiful.

My guests could have turned up in a white dress; a black dress; a Hawaiian shirt.

Every single one of my guests (only 45) were loved or very good friends and, as such, i didn’t give a hoot what they wore.

It's perfect. Absolutely beautiful.

Lovely dress!

So far I think I have failed to see a "it's fucking hideous!" comment! I am delighted and have ordered in two sizes.

Husband to be just looked at me like I'm mad for buying it - we don't have a concrete date yet but it will soon and abroad so I don't want to miss out. He hasn't seen though.

Also thanks for the congrats. It's so lovely when you find your person to marry and nice that others share the sentiment.

That is absolutely beautiful OP. Stunning. Yes absolutely suitable. Congratulations and have a wonderful wedding!

That’s not a good sign! 😂

it may have been wise to wait until you’re sure what country and season

That's stunning OP it's really elegant

@Afteropening he just knows what I'm like. I tend to buy loads of things and only ever keep one item. I have a very strong ideas about what I can and cannot wear and he just finds it amusing in a nice way 🥰

And they’re so dated. That dress is beautiful.

Lovely dress. Are you planning on the pale (grey/blue) colour? The green colour is amazing as well.

Yes the pale blue! STBDH will be wearing a relaxed linen style suit trousers and shirt. He knows what he wants and he has better dress sense than me so he will look very handsome without a doubt!

I love it!! How refreshing to not see some OTT traditional wedding dress that costs the earth!
I think you'll be very comfortable in this dress and, of course, afterwards you can either store it or wear again on a lovely summers day!
Congratulations to you both and I hope everything goes well!

Honestly it’s your wedding so you can do whatever you want

Of course you can it's lovely

It’s beautiful! Wear what you really want to wear though. If you like strapless, wear that.

Oh yes it's lovely 😍

Congratulations, stunning dress 😁

I think that's one of the loveliest dresses I've ever seen on this board, much nicer than most strapless styles which only really suit a small number of women.

Is there anyone that gets / got universel creadet when on maternity leave, and stayed off for the full 12 months? I'm trying to find out if I can afford to stay off or if I'll have to go back to work at the 9 month point.
