Would you wear a red dress to a summer wedding? i am thinking it might be too loud but unless i find something in the january sales i don't think i can afford to shell out for a new dress. The wedding is on a sunday arvo, and reception is sunday night.
Dont be nervous! it will be great to get out. Hopefully the weather is gorgeous too. A pic would help but no I don't think you will stand out. Many new dresses these days have big bold patterns with bright colours. You may even look boring compared to them xxx
Just make sure that red isn't the colour of the bridesmaids. We had red (and all the trimming on our invites was red, so thought it was a dead giveaway ), but my cousin also wore a red dress and was so self concious on the day and hid the beautiful dress behind her DH's black suit jacket.
Our's was a spring wedding, but against all the summer flowers, skies, I think red looks great.

Wear it! I wore a red dress to a wedding last weekend, and I had the same concerns. But it was fine- everyone was dressed to the nines, so it just fit in.
Unless it is the same colour as the invites, wear it. Brides wear red in China because it is meant to be good luck. If the couple are Chinese make sure the bride won't be wearing red. I think red is a great colour to wear to weddings!!
