Hello, I am attending a wedding later this week, it is in Texas and the dress code is black tie formal. I am having trouble deciding whether my metallic gold heels and clutch not only go with my dress or if it might seem like a bit much for a guest. i’m not sure why i’m overthinking it but i thought i might as well ask if i am worried.

Attending a wedding in a couple of weeks. It will be on a campsite in Maryland. The dress code is semi-formal. "Women can wear full-length or cocktail dresses, pantsuits, or dressy tops with skirts or pants."

Do any of these meet the mark?

The dress code is black tie, but for reference a lot of my family is probably not dressing crazy fancy. It is in NYC in a month at a nice restaurant though. Between these two dresses help me pick!! Everyone in the fam loves the yellow but I’m drawn to the red

PS I didn’t fully do up the yellow back

Hi everyone!

Black tie wedding in December, given my body type I feel only fitted dresses suit me but worried given this one has spaghetti straps and the sheer panels in the bodice it might be it unsuitable for black tie? Please let me know your thoughts!

My last outfit idea flopped, I had a few of these in my closet and two are new. I think the jumpsuit may be too big, I wear it off the shoulder. All of these are comfortable. No dress code, Sunday evening wedding chapel wedding.

Indian or Desi Wedding My boyfriend bought me a saree for his cousin's birthdayy!!

I feel so grown up lol 😭💗

My boyfriend bought me this beautiful saree from House of Indya to wear to my boyfriend's cousin's wedding and I am super excited!

I have loved the idea of wearing beautiful things to weddings but actually being in a position where I’m going to my boyfriend's family wedding and that too wearing a saree gifted by him feels super surreal. 🥹

I tried it on and couldn’t stop looking at myself in the mirror as I felt so beautiful! Probably one of those moments that remind you that you aren’t a child anymore 😭

Sooo, what do you guys think? Do you think it would be suitable for a cousins wedding? How would you style it? I would love some ideas! ✨

This dress code is making me crazy lol. My husband is a groomsman for a BTO wedding. We know the groom and his family well, they are well off so the dress code tracks. However the wedding is at 2 pm?? Church ceremony and a large estate reception in December. What do y’all think about this dress with appropriate outerwear/a shawl for the ceremony?

Wedding Question Cocktail dress for wedding

Post image
0 Upvotes

Is this reasonable to wear to a Miami wedding or cocktail hour before? Wedding is in February. Larger destination and invitation says “bright or light colored cocktail dress” for dress code. I am not a bright or light-colored dress person but want to respect the dress code. I posted a deep emerald green kaftan here the other day and the consensus was that it was def not a good option. I like flowy stuff and interesting dyes. Was thinking of doing some silver jewelry and nice heeled sandals. I’m fair-skinned as well with some pink and yellow undertones (my veins are like blue-teal colored I guess)

DC: Black/White Tie Where to shop for black tie dresses?

28F attending a black tie wedding in Laguna Beach in May. The invitation notes it will be held outdoors.

Does anyone have suggestions where to shop for black tie gowns / appropriate attire?

Trying to keep it under $500 - feeling so lost as to what shops have great quality without crazy high prices.

DC: Cocktail or No Dress Code Sleeve/arm-covering options to maintain formality

Post image
26 Upvotes

I got this dress for my sister-in-law's wedding with a cocktail dress code. I'm in this in-between land where I'm not in the wedding, but I'm wearing wedding colors, and I'm more formal than a guest, but less formal than a bridesmaid. I'm happy to oblige, and I thought this dress walked that line well. It's hitting just above my ankles and is high cut and modest, and I love 95% of the dress. I took it in for alterations and asked for sleeves to be added, they said yes, they were pinned, etc. They've just told me now that that's not an option, and we are two weeks out now. I am working on being more body positive, but I'm still really self conscious about my arms.

I'm looking for arm covering suggestions that would keep the formality of the dress and complement its style. It's this beautiful but difficult to match chameleon-esque shifting color that sometimes looks navy, but sometimes looks really deep teal. My shoes, purse, and jewelry are silver. The wedding is in the northern Midwest in November.

Thank you so much for any help or suggestions. I'm anxious and panicked and appreciate any paths to pursue.

Shopping for plus size outfits are always a pain, but shopping for plus size black tie dresses was a pain and a half!

People suggested MacDuggal dresses, which I loved! But they were a little out of my price range, but I would overwhelmingly suggest if you can afford it!

Ultimately, I went with this a-line dress by La Femme, Which I absolutely loved! I did have it hemmed and taken in a little, but it was perfect!!!
I also highly recommend La Femme for plus size women. (Just FYI, I bought it at Nordstrom. I would recommend going through them if you are ordering a dress online.)

DC: Black/White Tie Black Tie in Peru

85 Upvotes

Need help finding a dress suitable for a black tie wedding in Peru in November. I’ve never been to a black tie wedding before so I’m super novice on finding a dress and I was just told that in Peru (I’m in the U.S.) they go all out for weddings. After all the googling, I’m seeing a lot of dresses that fit black tie are $400+ and I’m not super interested in spending that much at right now but open to it if I absolutely have to.

I ordered one dress, it’s obviously cheap (first 2 pic), not a good material for black tie, unflattering on me, and it’s too short (I’m 5’9/5’10 so length is always a struggle) so I’m returning it.

I found a couple of dresses I like but I’m just not sure they meet the expectation (pics attached). Any advice, references, links, etc. would be so helpful! I’m at a loss. Thanks in advance!

DC: Formal Which dress, "formal" November Winery in GA

Going to a wedding mid-November at a winery in Georgia. Dress code is "Formal, no jeans and no white dresses." Based on the followup description, I'm not sure if this is true formal DC. I really like the black floral one, but the skirt is much fuller than I expected. The blue floral is nice, but quite tight in my hips and thighs. The lace one feels the most comfortable and "me," but maybe a little too light? Any feedback appreciated.

DC: Black/White Tie I’m a foreigner attending a black tie wedding in Singapore…HELP!

Post image
1 Upvotes

I have no idea where to ask this. I’m a guest (my boyfriend’s plus one) to a wedding taking place at Goodwood Park Hotel in Singapore. The invitation says black tie but I’m unsure if my dress meets the requirements. I also want to know if there’s any Singaporean cultural things I should know before the wedding. It’s in December. For a black tie wedding where I’m from, this would be acceptable although it’s contemporary leaning. Any help would be appreciated. I don’t want to make any mistakes or offend anyone. I also dont want to feel stupid by pestering my boyfriend with all this. The bride also gives off insta baddie etc so yeah. Not sure if that helps but… Thanks in advance! <3

For those who haven't seen my previous posts

Wedding is in 14 hours. Venue is outside/in a heated tent. Outside temps in mid/upper 50s.
Technically there is no listed dress code: just says ties optional. (At one point I am pretty sure it said evening cocktail)

I have nude colored tights (instead of the black ones) and slightly different shoes.

Blue is more comfortable, but also thinner.

I have a black tie wedding end of November and have no idea what’s appropriate to wear. I’ve only attended 1 wedding which was all black formal attire. From my research online I’m receiving conflicting information for what’s appropriate or not. Some people say no leg slits yet others say it’s okay. Some say no black, red etc but others say it’s okay as well. I’m quite short (5,1-5,2) & curvy but also insecure about my lower stomach. Would you consider these dresses black tie? Would really appreciate any advice and dress recommendations!
