    I'm not getting married for another 5 months, but I'm still curious... what are you guys wearing/what did you wear/what do you want to wear to the rehearsal dinner??  I need some dress inspiration!

    Here's the one I wore, will look for pictures of me in it.  It was ivory and actually complimented my wedding dress (although that wasn't intentional).

    I haven't bought my dress yet, but this is the one I'm drooling over at the moment! My main "wedding color" is navy, and this dress would be perfect for my casual rehearsal dinner - a marshfront low country boil in Savannah!

    Yes, it is BCBG...I had purchased 2 other dresses to consider and then found this on sale at the BCBG store in Seattle and snapped it up last August so not sure how generally available it is now (especially considering it was on sale)  LOVED it!  It was perfect for our welcome party.  I considered selling it but I love it too much to part with it...I can definitely wear it to cocktail parties.  Thanks girls! 

    @jbinkley1...our colors were navy and green too!  Great taste! 

    @Colette27...adorable!  It would be perfect!

    @colette: I like that dress too! Where did you get it?

    I'm still totally undecided, although, I did read a bee's blog post a few months back where she said she is wearing this dress:

    I can't remember who it was, but I realllly like it too!  I keep going back to ModCloth and looking at it after I have zero luck finding anything else I like.

    Keep posting your pics, girls! :)

    I think I may go with a J Crew dress from their bridesmaid collection...  http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WeddingParties/Wedding_Bridesmaid/dresses/strapless/PRDOVR~19961/19961.jsp

    It's such a cute cocktail dress, I'm sure I'll get to wear it for other occasions.

    @farfromachildbride:  I never thought about JCrew!  I really like that dress, and you could totally re-wear that.

    @I blew the budget:  Very cute!!  The tiny straps and flowers are so sweet...!  Where is it from?

    It actually fits me totally different than the model, as is often the case.

    here is the blog post I wrote on finding it: http://crosscountrywed.blogspot.com/2009/10/ill-be-one-in-white.html

    I am debating wearing this one I bought off another bee. Was set on it till one of my bridesmaids said I shouldn't wear white, because i should have it be special when they see me in white on my wedding day. what do you think?

    I love seeing all these cute dresses!

    @ Jbinkley1 - The dress I posted is a Lilly Pulitzer dress - it's on the Lilly website and on Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale's too. Because it's almost $300 (3 times my ideal budget!), I'm trying to talk myself out of it but am not doing a very good job!

    @ Ms. Starfish - I adore that dress! If my rehearsal dinner were at a fancier venue I would totally want one for myself! Regarding the wearing white issue, since there is no hard and fast rule I definitely think you should do what YOU want to do!

    I love all these dresses so far!

    @Ms. Starfish:  I am having the same debate in my head!  I want to wear white, but I worry about it "taking away from the wedding day."  I think I am going to wear white though.  First of all, I'll be way done up and in a totally different dress on the wedding day.  Secondly, I'm going to be tan and ready for a white dress, so why not rock it while you can?? :)  PS: I think that dress is fabulous!

    About wearing white: I think it is PERFECTLY FINE! I am milking it a little I guess but really I don't think it will take away... everyone will still be focused on you as the bride on the wedding day.

    Starfish- I'm wearing that dress to my rehersal brunch!  I think you definitely need to wear it :)  I wanted to wear a dress that would make me stand out as "The Bride" and I think that dress is perfect for that!
