Could I wear this outfit to a Christmas Eve wedding?

[CathyBlowsBubbles]

Could I wear this to a late afternoon Christmas Eve wedding? Friends are getting married this year and I’ve left it very late to get an outfit. I want to look glam casual as that’s the stated vibe. DH going black tie. Plan would be matching shoes and an ivory coloured calf length faux fur coat that I already own. Concerns are that it looks inappropriate for a wedding or that it’s too light or close to bridal colours. Opinions please.

It’s lovely but not appropriate for a wedding.

Sounds good to me. I like the idea of trainers with a smart suit. I might be old but I can appreciate a trend.

My son (early 20s) wears trainers with suits. Maybe it is a thing.

I love it, especially on Eminem, it’s such a cool look.

My son certainly seems to be able to carry it off.

Absolutely not. Obviously. I’ve been to low-key weddings where the bride has worn something similar.
You do not wear something that can pass as a wedding dress to a wedding. I don’t get how this is even a question. Guessing you quite like drama!

🙄 Guessing you haven’t read the thread!

Glad to read all the love for a suit and trainer combo! DH will be very pleased!

Ask the bride to be directly. You already know it's white and that's usually a no no. She may not care though, so just ask her. Edited to add - Not clicking all those links, maybe upload screenshots of photos instead.

Literally any other colour. White and off white, “light champagne” or “hint of blush pink but really in the photos, will look white” is just bad form.

It’s just not the bride. Most people would judge someone showing up in a majority white or near-white gown to anyone’s wedding. It’s just not what you do.

no unless you want to compete with the bride….

😂 ok got the update!

I’ll never understand why someone would think to pick a very pale bridal colour for their wedding guest outfit and then have to ask if it’s appropriate. There are so many different colours to choose from. It’s fairly easy to steer clear of the wrong ones.

The outfit is actually very nice and would look great in another colour.

It's pretty but come on you know it's a no no light outfit jacket and shoes .you can't just because you didn't look for something else in time .you will upset the bride if not her her mother at least

Only if you’re the bride
