And with this being the last few days of preparation for the wedding, I don't dare bother them to ask.<br /><br />Right now, so long as I find something that fits, drapes properly over my form and is affordable, I will be happy.<br /><br />For your wedding, I will happily wear black, have red ribbons woven through my hair and go without shoes. Yay!

The hem is a white ruffle. So I looked at this dress and I thought to myself "I can't wear it because it's black and it's a daytime wedding and shouldn't wear black." Then I looked at the hem and thought "and it has white and I shouldn't wear white, even though I know the bride isn't wearing white." Then I screamed in frustration.<br /><br />Still looking for a dress.Carmen Espositohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11607902019308543672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4990278961147947328.post-73240092303964269862012-09-14T23:55:04.634-04:002012-09-14T23:55:04.634-04:00I completely agree with you.

Guest can wear black but only if it's an evening wedding. For daytime weddings, black or even navy blue should be avoided. I forget the exact wording but basically it would be dressing for the wrong time e.g.: not wearing a sequined dress because that would be more suitable for a nighttime affair. As it turns out, my friend is getting married during the day so I will do my best to follow the rules of etiquette. I just want to be respectful. It's a conventional wedding, they're an older couple and long time friends. <br /><br />I love your plan of getting married near a body of water and not wearing shoes!!<br /><br />Not sure if I'm going to Comic Con yet. I know I'm running out of time to get tickets.Carmen Espositohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11607902019308543672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4990278961147947328.post-16100445477782999302012-09-14T19:10:49.286-04:002012-09-14T19:10:49.286-04:00LOL!

You could dress it up with different colored shoes and other accessories?

Then again, I'm a witchy woman, and I tend to look at the world from a different angle.<br /><br />I'm getting married by the river, without shoes, and most certainly wearing red and black, perhaps a little purple and a bit of pink--no white thought (no mourning or plainness on that day). <br /><br />My goodness, I'm so opinionated lol. <br /><br />I hope you find a dress that first, makes you happy, and second, pleases the bride. <br /><br />Now, get to writing! <br /><br />P.S. Are you going to NY Comic Con? You can wear black ;-) Magaly Guerrerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295455026184103230noreply@blogger.com
