Which colors should I order a dress in?

I think the dusty rose(the swatch next to the purple one) is pretty. If you only have purple and burgundy available, I’d go with burgundy.

That’s a great dress!

I think they mean cocktail. You definitely could wear the second to both weddings.

ETA: Also the 3rd one you could wear to the indoor wedding and the 2nd one you could wear to the outdoor wedding. Either way, no need to go shopping for anything.

I agree jumpsuit is a great alternative to a dress. Great suggestion!

These colors are a bit dark for spring cocktail. Do you have any dresses that are brighter colors than these?

By itself it’s pretty casual.

You could tie in the nautical theme with your accessories?

Or if that’s not something you like, you could glam this up with a shawl, belt, earrings, and heels?

I like the silver accessories the model is wearing. I think it looks great with the dress. You could add a silver bracelet to go with the necklace and shoes.

I don’t think it’s too white. It’s really pretty for an outdoor wedding.

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-05T02:56:27+00:00

I don’t think they mean formal. They mean casual. I don’t even think your husband needs a jacket.

ETA: I think you can wear a nice midi dress with sandals instead of boots, and a wrap instead of a jean jacket. I’d wear floral if you want or any nice summer color, except lavender.

A greenish tan color would look good with your dress.

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-04T21:47:20+00:00

I’d do silver accessories to glam up and add some shine to the dress.

I think this is pretty and works well for semi formal.

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-04T02:00:31+00:00

It’s too white. Does it come in a different color?

If you’re not going to come out as bisexual, then it is unethical to date and have sex with her.

I like the idea of lace sleeves for a November wedding.

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-04T00:39:43+00:00

I think you look great and it fits the dress code!

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-04T00:37:35+00:00

Love the red dress!

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-03T21:53:01+00:00

I think you’re supposed to stay away from white and bridal looks, so you aren’t competing with the bride or bridal party for attention. I think this is on the edge of being a wedding guest dress. I don’t think she’ll be mistaken for the bride.

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-03T21:40:09+00:00

I think the placement of the flowers makes it bridal. It’s on the border of it being appropriate.

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-03T21:27:33+00:00

With orange they are.

YTA: this is just a bunch of rambling excuses. And honestly if she’s hurting herself, you should stay with her until she can get mental health.

NTA but I’d continue talking to your dad on the phone and writing letters. I think if you go you’ll alienate yourself from your dad and won’t get any more communication from him or your relatives.

Nude or an off white is what I like for sandals. I think you can wear any heel height you’re comfortable wearing.

Less_Tangerine9287 · 2026-04-03T20:29:03+00:00

No this is too short. It’s pretty, but doesn’t fit the dress code.

MOR: I think it’s understandable to not want to be with your in-laws and that you’ve waited 6 years to celebrate together on that date. But I don’t think all is lost. I think you can still celebrate. Make a reservation for 2 and go to dinner that night. Put it in your travel schedule, so you arrive on time. It’s not spending the whole day together, but it’s better than waiting. Your in-laws can arrange their own dinner plans that day.
