I love the first dress in print!

I like all three. I think the first in the print is fine for a wedding.

Personally, love the 1st 2 dresses. The big Q is what YOU love and feel festive wearing.

Not sure why she thinks itās not appropriate for a wedding guest? I think it looks exactly like that.

I love the first dress! I feel very pretty in it.
My daughter thinks itās too white and she heard you shouldnāt wear black to a wedding. I love her but sheās not the most fashionable person and I know she struggles with what the fashion rules are herself.
I was going to make an order from Sundance catalog but I think I like the dresses from Anthropologie better. I did try to order dress number 3 in the medium petite but itās sold out already.
I love Anthropologie but boy their petite sizes sell out so fast! And the 30 day return policy is tough! I really have to keep on top of any returns.
It would be much easier to decide on a dress but I feel very shumply around my ex sil. Sheās intimidating. To me. Hence why Iām being very indecisive.

I like 1 and 2 the best. The 1st one does seem to have some off white but nobody would mistake it for a wedding dress! Are there any other options youāre still considering?
A friend of brideās parents wore a long , slinky, slip dress , all off white long dress to sonās wedding last year. It looked too much like a wedding gown to me. And when I looked at the pictures from the reception later, I still donāt understand what this woman (in her early 60ās) was thinking.

As a sample of one (my D is getting married next month) I think dress #1 is beautiful and I wouldnāt think twice if a guest were to wear it. As far as wearing black to a wedding I think of that āruleā as no solid black ā¦.and Iām sticking to it because my MOB dress has a black top

I agree. I wouldnāt wear solid black to a wedding.
Maybe the real test is āIf youād wear it to a funeral, donāt wear it to a wedding?ā

The first dress looks off white to me. Even if it was white, it doesnāt resemble a āwhiteā dress with all the embellishments.

I just looked at #1 again. No disrespect to your daughterās opinion, as every opinion is valid. But I wholeheartedly disagree. That dress is very much appropriate for a wedding and if you love it on, Iād get it.
FYI, I have recently be one a huge anthro fan. The prices are what has taken me so long. But I donāt feel guilty any longer spending the $$ as I have my own little Poshmark account.

I also have just started to look at Anthropologie.
Petite sized dresses have almost disappeared at many retailers so my options have changed.
But Iām impressed by the cute stuff. The prices are on the somewhat higher range but not too terrible.
I should start my own Poshmark shop. Instead of donating. I think I would need to buy a dress form to make things more appealing. Thatās not a deal breaker.
Iāve been looking at Poshmark a lot lately. This wedding has a second event, a sunset cruise. Which you are supposed to wear bright colors to(these dress codes are killing me 
). Found a really cute dress for that for a song on Poshmark.
Although after looking at the prices of wedding dresses these days, Anthro looks very affordable

One of my best friends found her MOG dress from Anthro online and it was gorgeous.
I agree, their clothes are just a tad pricey, but not ridiculous for the uniqueness of them. Their sales are really great. I just bought a skirt Iām wearing to France next month when I get dressed up one night. Iāll post that on the dressing young thread to keep this bridal clothing.

I posted on the wedding thread that I guess it didnāt matter what I wore to our sonās wedding as the photographer got me and DH in only five (!) pictures total and only two with our son and DIL and none of them are worth sharing/ordering/printing. The dress photos I shared months ago on this thread are better than any she took. Oh well. At least she got some lovely photos of our son, DIL, wedding party, and ceremony which is all that really matters.

So sorry, @ChoatieMom . The photographer for son and daughter in law did an excellent job of capturing multiple groups before the ceremony, both wedding party and family. Sounds like the photographer could have done a better job. But so glad you did get some good pictures and had a wonderful time at your sonās wedding!

Ok the dresses I referenced came. I was able to get dress 3 in a size up.
I put a sticker over my face. No makeup, my glasses on. Want to be incognito 
! Even though the camera was over my face.
What do you think? Dress number 3 looks much better in the size up. It would also be easy to wear a jacket over if the weather is cooler.
