Well I would have to say no. I remember at one wedding sil was wearing a white dress, actually i think she's worn it to a few and I thought at the time oh she's wearing a white dress and it didn't seem wrong...I think the style of the dress helped I think it was a cue dress so not bride like. However, I would say that lots of brides might not like it and you won't know if this is one of the brides that would mind and even though it might be silly to some it is their day and I suppose as their guest I wouldn't want to do anything to upset them just my opinion though
Personally I'd go the black rather than white. We had two people show up to our wedding in white dresses (both extended family members - one from each side). It didn't bother me so much on the day, but looking back at photos it does look a bit funny IYKWIM? Ask your hubby what he thinks since you don't really know the bride that well, she might be a total bridezilla and freak out at someone else wearing white
Though if you wear a different coloured skirt and maybe a jacket or a shawl or something that makes the white stand out less that might work.
I think a white top is fine. Unless you are also wearing a veil! LOL. But seriously it would be fine. Both sound great though and I know what you mean about showing off your bump.
Ok, so I got all tuffed up about modelling in my "bump" for DH .. turns out he is sick and just slopped down in bed after he got home and went straight to snoring Aww well, I'll catch him and dd directly after work today ... see what he thinks.
Jas, Mum3Girls - that is exactly what I thought ... I won't wear a white dress or top&skirt, but I don't know her and really it's her day. I can see how the pictures will look, well, weird with other women also in white dresses. See the bugger is ... DH don't know the bride also She went to school with us, but are a few years younger and I don't remember her and he doen'st either ... so I don't have a CLUE as what she will take personally or not ...but figuring stearing clear of white might be best.
Except if I get a KILLER colourfull shawl to borrow for the evening
MrsC Aussie - in my mind ... I was thinking that too ... if a guy could wear a white shirt with the groom, surely I can wear a white top with the bride. Thing is ... I don't think men are as b!tchy as women And for all I know she can be one of those "new-age" brides and wear a SUIT!!
And, of course, the other problem is that black is a funereal colour; women is black is supposed to be bad luck/wishing the bride bad luck or something like that?
You can't win whichever you pick!
(Ah, my dress for the wedding in a couple of weeks is red and black... good thing I'm not superstitious!)
I know!!!!!! But black is just so slimming and makes your curves look "just right" I was thinking about wearing some exotic colourfull heels, maybe just to break the black, bit out-ta-character for me .. but hey, I don't know these ppl
The worst outfit at my wedding was this [uninvited] tart who wore hot pink. And got herself in the front row of our group shot. About four rows in front of my grandmother. And it's not enough that she wore hot pink and was uninvited, she also tried to stand in front of Dh's parents at the ceremony! DH had to go and ask her to move - we didn't even invite her!!! (sorry, have I made that point?!)
She was showing off a "bump" too - only was not pg! One of the highlights of the weekend was someone saying "Oh my god, I didn't realise you were preg!" AAAAAAhahaha.
Sorry. What a B*#ch I am.
I would much rather she have worn white.... Or black.
