I will be attending a wedding at the end of February and need some fashion advice. What should I wear to the wedding? The brides dress is white with black beading and the bridesmaids will be wearing black. What color should I wear? I am a guest and it will be cold as hell so would a pant suit be ok and what color?

Also there is gonna be a Brides Maid Luncheon day before wedding and all female guest are invited. Should I plan to attend? I am not a bridesmaid and will it be rude not to be there? What does one wear to a Brides Maid Luncheon? It will be held at the hotel where all guest are staying. Is it ok to go casual for this? I am at a loss. Can ya tell I have not been to many types of things like this? :2razz::3oops:
 
Wear something red and pouffy. Always try to out-do the bride... she'll love you for it! :2razz:
 
I don't know what a woman should do in this instance.

Men when faced with this dilemma just wear a tuxedo t-shirt.
 
Its not a true Southern wedding unless someone shows up wearing his best clean overalls with no shirt underneath.

I've always wondered how they figure out which side of the church to sit on in the south. :2razz:

If you're a guy you sit on the side opposite of the best looking women so they don't suspect that you're related to them. That gives you a better chance when you hit on them during the reception.
 
I am not a conventional wedding type person so my advise may be taken as it is- just wear whatever the hell you want to. Dress in something you feel comfortable and confident in. If the bride is a bridezilla type, then just think how good you will feel that the crazy bitch got pissed off because you didn't dress right. If she's a cool chick, then it's all good. :2razz:
 
Seriously though just wear a nice little red dress at least one size too small revealing nice cleavage and you'll have a great time. :2wave:

Oh- and some very high heels.

I don't even notice women have feet.

Do you find women on stilts attractive? :lol:

Wouldn't that just be frickin hilarious if someone did come to a wedding reception like that? I would find that to be the highlight of the night. And their date could be a bird and finally prove love can conquer all obstacles :doh

Very much so, because when I stare into her cleavage, she tends to look down to see what I'm staring at, thus losing her balance and falling right into my waiting arms.

At least in my day dreams.

Wow, you got it all figured out. You should write a thesis. :2razz:
 

Do you think wearing deep brown would be ok? That is what I really wanna wear since I cannot wear black

I really care about her and do not want her pissed. I asked and she said she does not care but do not want people in circle talking about me
 
I just do not wish to upset anyone and this was suppose to be a serious thread but thanks for the laughs
 

Wear a cream linen suit. No jewelry, unless modest-sized pearls. Faux pearls are fine.
 
women are so shallow.

come clean and in a good mood.

Are you serious? You do not think that is too close to white?

Also what should I wear with that bridesmaid dealo? Do you think it would be rude to just skip it? Cause I am not a bridemaid but all female out of town guest are invited.

No, it's not too close to white; anyway, the bridesmaids are wearing black and the bride black-and-white. Wear cream.
And no, don't go to a bridesmaids luncheon if you're not a bridesmaid.

if I were you I'd forgo the pants suit, unless you have one that is REALLY nice. usually pants suits are a little severe looking, unless they are done just right. since it will be freezing you could definitely wear pants though, maybe very nice slacks of some kind and a really pretty top, and then you could wear a coat over that easily outside but still good and be really comfortable when you're inside. but if you are confident about the pants suit I say go for it, and it's definitely ok to wear dark brown if you like.

as for the lunch, I'd go if I were you just to be polite, since you never know how much she'd actually care about it, and I'd suggest business casual when in doubt.

are there any other guests you could consult with? if not, just do what you want and I'm sure it will be fine. you won't be the one under the microscope, happily.

if it's like the rehearsal dinner, or in place of a rehearsal dinner, guests from out of town should feel free to go. it's the wedding party's way of thanking them for making the effort to come out.

Thanks! I was wondering what to expect. Thing is with this wedding all out of town guest are invited to everything that is happening even the Family Dinner which is also being considered the rehearsal dinner.

I am so nervous about everything and want to make sure I am a nice guest but having an anxiety disorder is making me kinda freak out:mrgreen:
