Suitable guest dress for castle wedding?

[Dressdilemma2]

What's the verdict?

Love it

Gorgeous! Where’s it from?

Perfect!

Assume it’s a wedding reception in a castle and there’s no actual church service? Or would you cover it up for the ceremony/church?

I don’t actually like it. Even on the model it looks unflattering and badly cut. The tailoring of the bust and waist is dreadful.

Phew... This is about the 10th dress I've tried and the only one that suits my shape - I'm an inverted triangle and can do most short dresses, but the majority of midi/maxi ones either drown me or just hang and look awful.

@LittleCosette It's Monsoon 🙂

Thanks @HundredMilesAnHour It's all in the castle, but have got an ivory shrug that goes well with it. It needs an iron, but otherwise fits me like a glove :)

Would you go with gold/bronze shoes or try and match the colour?

And what sort of necklace?

Check what the bridesmaids are wearing before you opt for a solid colour!

We had our wedding ceremony in a castle. The guests just wore normal wedding outfits.

@MiddleAgedDread They're in blue.

Go for it then!

What's not normal about that dress? It's a nice dress- doesn't scream "wedding dress". You could get a lot of wear out of it.

Thanks. I was a little concerned that it was a bit too much like a ball-gown, but there are several reviews stating they bought it to wear to a wedding. The wedding party (of which my DP is one) are also in tuxes so not a particularly casual wedding.
