Id say its inappropriate to wear to someones elses wedding. Its beautiful though and would be perfect for your rehearsal or and other of your wedding events.
Sorry- I say go ahead and wear it to your own wedding events, but not to your friend's wedding. Honestly with so many people choosing to wear short dresses nowadays this almost looks like a wedding dress to me. I saw nordstrom's has a version in black and tan that would be ok to wear to someone else's wedding- if you don't mind having two of the same dress...

Sorry but I think it's going to cause a few raised eyebrows at your friend's wedding! I would totally save this beauty for your own events, maybe rehearsal dinner?
Oh, that's awesome. Thanks! I didn't realize that they had it in other colors. Not sure if I like it AS much in black, but it's still lovely. I know, it really does look like a dress for a casual wedding. I think I might think twice if someone wore it to mine. Too bad...
That's a really pretty dress! I would definitely wear it to my own wedding events but not someone else's.
Thanks everyone! I agree. I think I just wanted to find an event to wear it to, and I wasn't sure I was so keen on wearing white the night before/day after my wedding. But, maybe I love the idea!
Beautiful dress. But yeah, I wouldn't wear it to a wedding. Could you imagine if her dress was similar? Yikes!
it is definitely inappropriate to wear a white dress
can you get it in another colour?
otherwise, if you love it and want to get it you can save it for another dressy occasion
Definitely inappropriate to wear to a wedding.
It'll work for any of your own events, but definitely not a guest's dress.
Oh, I wouldn't worry about wearing white to your own wedding events! I think it would be great as a going-away dress too.
I agree with greenleafmountain. It would be really cute as a going away dress!
I agree w/ the other bees----you don't wanna be THAT girl. You know, the one who wears white and then all the guests are whispering under their breaths about? haha But it is really beautiful!
No, I definitely don't want to be "that" girl! I probably wouldn't have had the courage to wear it anyway, or the audacity, but I just came across it and wanted to employ it in my wardrobe somehow. What's a "going-away" dress? Is that what you wear at the end of the night? I hadn't thought of that...
I agree with everyone else, I would probably not be thrilled if you showed up at my wedding wearing that. You could wear the dress at the end of the night or any other wedding related activity you might be having. I've seen that dress before as well and do like it.
I agree, I don't think that it is an appropriate dress to wear, but get it for your own!! It is really pretty. :)
I LOVE it in the black!! It's a really pretty dress--in the white it's great for your own wedding events, and in the black, it would be great for an evening wedding as a guest. Lovely!
A going-away dress is generally for people leaving straight for their honeymoon- but I think now they're more common. It's the dress you change into right before you leave the reception and say your final goodbyes, and then leave in so you don't have to try to fit a poofy wedding dress in the get away car. That way you'd be more comfortable if you had a long drive or even a plane flight right after the wedding.
I don't know what (if any) kind of honeymoon you're taking, but it could also work for dinner on a cruise :)
Beautiful dress, but I would never wear it to a wedding. Unless I wanted people to be talking about me and wondering what I was thinking when I chose to wear that :)
I love this dress! I guess you have your answer already but I wanted to thank you for posting this because I think I may get it for my rehearsal dinner or the blessing of the vows in church.
If you had to ask.. then probably that means it is inappropriate. I wouldn't wear it to your friend's wedding. It's poor etiquette to wear white or ivory to a wedding. You wouldn't like it if they did that to you.
It would however make a better dress for your rehearsal dinner....
Beautiful dress, but inappropriate to wear to someone else's wedding. Do they have it in a different color?
Oooh I agree with the others, it is pretty but not for someone else's wedding. I was on Nordy's website the other day, they have a lot of nice colorful options
I agree with the other bees....for someone else's wedding it's not appropriate though it is amazing!!
Here is pretty much the same dress in black: http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2993455?refsid=212338&refcat=0~2376776~2378685~2380947~2380968&SourceID=1&SlotID=1&origin=related&cm_Sp=Related-Items-_-Product-_-Manual
Agreed- at your own wedding events- A-OK, but not in white or ivory at someone else's wedding

Is this dress too white/too wedding dress-y to wear as a guest to a friend's wedding (my FI's cousin to be exact)? I absolutely love it, and in truth it does remind me of the neckline I envisioned for my own gown-- but didn't end up getting. If it is inappropriate (due to color?), would it work to wear this to my own rehearsal dinner or brunch?
Thanks! Oh, and if you know of any dresses like this that aren't white/ivory, I'd love to see them! I'm obsessed with the lace and the cut.
