    I like it. Think its very elegant, I think weddings have somewhat got a bit more casual but personally I love the occasion to dress up. You wont look out of place dressed up eithrr. Just make sure bridesmaids aren't same colour.

    I am undecided. I think it could look a bit to much like a Bridemaids dress. I wouldn't be to concerned about it looking to dressy,Your hubby is right! I suppose the best thing to do is find out what colour the bridemaids dresses are.

    Love the colour - my only question against it would be ....

    its a young persons dress - I'm assuming you are a young person

    I would be inclined to say the opposite, it looks suitable for someone in their forties / fifties.

    Go for it OP ...your hubby is right.

    I think it's a beautiful maxi dress that is age appropriate right across the board. It doesn't emphasise cleavage/legs or any other body part and should just skim your body and ooze class. I'm a huge fan of maxi dresses for weddings so long as they aren't bridesmaidy and that dress isn't so go for it OP!
