Yellow wedding guest dress

I have a wedding in August. For some reason I have it in my head that I'd like to wear yellow. Has anyone seen some nice yellow dresses suitable for a wedding?

I mean proper bright yellow not lemon and preferably plain rather than patterned. I've seen one or two I like but they have long sleeves so I think they'd be too hot for August. I'm 36, a size 6-8 and 5'6.

@heldinadream does that White Stuff dress have pockets?

As a side of caution and experience. I wore yellow dress in summer and literally was covered in insects, who thought I was a lovely flower. It was awful, I spent the day trying to hide inside or shaking them off.

@JingsMahBucket it does! Good deep ones, set properly into the side seams.

Yeah I'm now starting to wonder if it's such a good idea.

Maybe orange would be a better option so I don't become a fly haven. I wore an orange t-shirt the other day and my DH actually commented on how much I suited orange.

I've spotted this dress in my Google searches.

The yellow house at our local school had to change to purple t-shirts instead due to the bugs in summer.
