Is this too pale

[IsItTooPink]

We’re off to a wedding in March and my daughter wants me to enlist the MN massive to see if wearing this is ok? Is it too pale?

Looks a bit bridesmaidy unless it’s a beach wedding. Lovely dress though!

Is this a joke?

Bridesmaids will be in gold

It's not the colour, it's the style. That's a bridesmaids dress.

Is it a daytime wedding in the UK?

I know wedding styles have morphed - I do honestly know that. But if it were my late winter / early spring daytime wedding, (church / country house / barn / whatever) I would want and expect my guests to be dressed for that occasion.

There are plenty of other opportunities for summer black tie evening wear, surely?

It looks lovely

We’ve been told to ‘dress to impress’ it’s in a fancy location in a big city

I wore an outfit of a similar colour to a wedding years ago. I'm not sure the style is quite right though for a guest...the dress does look bridesmaid. I appreciate the bridesmaid's will be in gold though. I'd go for a dress that's perhaps more knee or midi length, than full.

But daytime, @IsItTooPink?

Totally inappropriate- and I say that as someone who is very much anti ‘rules’ otherwise. You’ll look like you wanted to be a bridesmaid.

No way. It’s too pale / wedding party. It will look like she wanted to be a bridesmaid but wasn’t invited so guessed the wrong colour.

Yes it is.

I love these posts. Of course she can’t wear that.

Is it for you or your daughter? Either way, it’s a no.

Every day there is a post like this with a bride like dress involved. No it is not suitable at all. Why not just add a veil and be done with it.
First rule of weddings. Its the bride's big day dont upstage her or wear anything even remotely bride like.
This is 100% unsuitable and Id be livid if someone turned up to my daughters wedding wearing this.

Not suitable for a church wedding i would say.

I'll go against the grain and say if the bridesmaids are in gold then this lovely dress is fine. Might need a cover up as it'll be cold in the church.

There's dress to impress and then there's dress like you're in the wedding party. This definitely falls into the latter category (although you look lovely in it, BTW just not for a wedding unless you're also walking up the aisle)

Looks like a bridesmaids dress. So no.

This is a day dress suitable for a daytime wedding:

As is this co-ord set:

And in March velvet and (fake) fur and shearling and beautiful glossy boots will still be seasonally appropriate.

I would find it so odd if people didn’t make the most of the actual time and season of my event.

If it’s ’dress to impress’, then I think it’s fine!
Yes, it’s a bit bridesmaid-ee, but it looks absolutely amazing on her (if that’s her in the pic).

I think she should wear it.

It isn't suitable for a wedding guest. But lovely dress.

I’d think someone got dressed in the dark wearing any of those options. They are awful especially the last one. That said, I do think the dress posted by the OP is a bridesmaids dress.

The middle one could be OK if correctly accessorised, but 1 & 3 are way too casual (and migrane-inducing, in the first case).
