![[Poll] NOT feeding vendors! Is it rude? UPDATE!!](http://boards-static.weddingbee.com/images/left-loop-button-on.gif)
I really don't care about the "no white" rule, so I think it's fine. But it really comes down to your friend's opinion. If you think she'll be put out by it, don't do it. If you're not sure, just send her the link and ask.
I think it should be fine--not anywhere near looking like a wedding dress.
Um I think it depends on the wedding. I think it may have a bit too much white for me. But if the wedding is really laid back and the bride too I don't think it is a big deal. But it is a cute dress.
I'm one of those you just don't wear white to a wedding EVER no matter how laid back the wedding is. I think it's the Bride's special day and it's just a respectful gesture to her to make sure she's the only one to wear white. But if it's your best friend why not just ask.
I think that it depends on your friend and the wedding. Imho it is a bit too much white for my personal preference but your friend may feel differently.
It would be fine for my wedding, but I would ask if you are worried. Just be sure to ask in a way in which it is totally fine for her to say it isn't cool.
Thanks for all the prompt responses, I really appreciate it! I guess I should just ask, it is a laid back wedding, no bridesmaids or groomsmen and it is a buffet style event, I just don't want to ruffle any feathers and upset someone so near and dear to my heart.
I'm of the opinion that you shouldn't wear white to a wedding, being that I can't see the picture b/c of the stupid firewall at work I'll tell you what my mom has told me my entire life, if you have to ask you shouldn't wear it...
I think it is TOTALLY okay. Are you worried about it being too "white" or looking like a bride? This dress is casually adorable and nice, and is in no way bridal. I say GO FOR IT!
I think it'd be fine to wear to a wedding. But I really don't think it's a cute dress at all. That print is way too large!
Unless she's wearing a casual dress, it's fine. And if the accessories are in color, so much the better.
In my opnion, the white doesn't bother me. I think it's pretty casual, so if its a formal affair then you shouldn't wear it.
I'm one of those people who think the only person who should be wearing white at a wedding is the bride. For me, it has noting to do with whether the guest's dress looks "bridal" or not. So while that dress isn't bridal, I say it's too much white for somebody else's wedding.
i think it's fine since it doesn't look like a wedding dress. I really don't care about the "no white" thing. It only matters to me if it was a white wedding-like gown...put colored shoes/scarf/cardigan/purse or something with it.
I think it's fine! It's not solid white and I don't see it as trying to compete with the bride in any way.
Why not ask the bride? I had someone who was worried about what to wear, so we went shopping together. We're both on tight budgets, so we did Marshall's, TJMaxx, and Ross. We would've done Goodwill too, but we found a $20 dress. Now if you're too broke to buy anything at all (I've been there), maybe throw a cardigan over it and accessorize with color.
I would say no... mainly because it looks like a cute get away dress! If the dots were filled in, maybe... but... No.
And I'm sorry, but I hate the "ask the friend" thing. What a horrible spot to put her in! Either she'll feel bad and say yes and secretly be mad and frustrated or she could say no and feel bad and frustrated. Maybe she'll say it's OK, but it's not a fair position to put her in...
I can't imagine anyone could confuse that for a wedding dress, It personally wouldn't offend me at all, however I'm not a very persnickety person about that stuff.
I'd ask the bride just to be safe.
i have a no white rule.. but that only applies to ALL white, if it's printed, patterned or accesorized with color i say okay!
I think it's fine since it doesn't even remotely look like a wedding dress, but that's just my personal opinion. To be on the safe side, you can always ask your friend. :)

I am on a tight budget and wanted to wear the banana republic dress below to my best friend's wedding? I think it will be ok, as long as the accessories are a color. Please let me know what you think as her wedding is July 31.. Thanks in advance!
