Is this dress too much white to wear to a wedding?

bethsmiles

What do you guys think? Too much white?

Pair it with a non-white wrap or cardigan and you're good to go!

I agree. Nonwhite accessories and it'll  be fine. Cute dress too

ok, thanks! I don't know the bride very well (they are friends of BF's) so I don't want to offend her.

Now I'm off to find accessories! yay, shopping!

Honestly, I wouldn't wear it to a wedding because of the amount of white in it. A black cardigan might make it a little better, but I still wouldn't. 

However, I also usually find out what color the BP is wearing and avoid that color too... so maybe I over think it.

I do that too actually. I had a super cute blue dress to wear but it's the exact color the BM dresses are so I though it would be weird to wear it.

I may have to think over the dress for awhile. I love the dress but it does have a lot of white...I'll have to see what else I can find and see if I like it more.

I think it would look great with a red cardigan and red heels.  That would definitely take away from the white!  I really like the dress!

I don't think it's too much white. I think it's be ok to wear alone but like others said, you could do a black cardi to tone it down.

I want that dress! Super cute!

I think it's completely fine. (Though i'm of the camp that people tend to WAY over think these things) Just to make it fun, I think it would look amazing with a red necklace and red heels...but then again I do love red!

Cropped short-sleeve cardigans are $8 at Old Navy this Saturday.

A red cardigan sounds way better than black. You could do any bright color though

Even without a cardigan, I don't think that dress would really be considered "bridal white" and the black further proves it.

I also try not to wear the same colors as the BM's but something that compliments when FI is a GM.

Always a groomsman, never a groom. LOL

I agree that it's fine...  and that's a seriously cute dress.  Where's it from?

I get more of an off white from the picture.

If you have to ask, the answer is always yes.

I think you are totally fine to wear that to a wedding. There is black throughout the whole thing, plus it's short, so no one is going to mistake you for the bride. Kudos to you for thinking about it though! Find some cute, bright shoes, a matching cardigan, and you're good to go!

I personally think the whole no white or black as rules go out the window nowadays. Get something you will wear again and feel comfortable in , if the bride is that easily offended by something someone they invited or is a guest of someome they invited then they can DIAF. But then again I don't believe in fashion trends or any formal rules either.

Besides etsy, it's my favorite place to shop online!
Thanks for all the opinions girls!

I would have no problem at all if you wore that to my wedding, it's adorable and I'd probably ask you where you got it if I didn't already see the link lol.... then again I'm very low maintenance so who knows.

I think if you do get accessories in a color (purple is my favorite so we'll go with that) it would look even better but like I said I think it's fine by itself. Wear it with confidence!!!

I agree with most everyone that I think it will be fine. Especially because of the black throughout. No one will mistake you for the bride. I also agree with others to get a bright cardigan and matching shoes and accessories to make them really pop. I just love that kind of look.
