poll: gloves

Nukke · May 2011

Will you be wearing gloves to your wedding?

Why or why not?

etiquette: Hold gloves in your left hand. Remove them when indoors. Remove them when eating or drinking. Never shake hands wearing your gloves.

I wanted to get some for me and my girls for pictures, but it just didn't happen and time is running out!

Kelley--you've got less than a week, eh? You're SOL if you want to buy them online. Your best chance would be to get them at a local antique store.

You'll make a beautiful bride with or without gloves though, don't worry!

I'd love to, but I think that I have so much going on with my outfit already. With the heat and the logistics of the ring, I just decided not to.

I am wearing short black lace gloves and hopefully they look super cute

I am getting gloves. I really want them for the look, but must say I'm worried about the ring logistics. What do you ladies think? Should I take off the glove and hand it to my MOH right before the ring is slipped on? (If I did that I would probably cut a little slit in the glove so it comes off easier. I am wearing elbow length) Or could the ring be placed over the glove? Is that really tacky and weird?

Mine were wrist-length so i was able to slip them off easily. For you, I would suggest undoing the seam in the ring finger to slip it out easily. This is what brides typically did in those days when they faced this same dilema. I didn't want to cut a slit in my gloves, or undo the seam since the gloves were an heirloom (and weren't mine!). But, as I said, I was able to discretely slip the left glove off during the ring ceremony, and it worked fine.

I got gloves but still not sure whether or not I'll be wearing them yet. I still need to try them on with the dress and all the accessories... it'll also depend on how hot it'll be when we get married in July.
