what to wear to the reheasal ?

[blissfulbride]

what are you wearing ?

I''m probably going to wear a short sleeved knee length dress from J Crew. I considered something in white or silver, but both of those colors can really wash me out. Instead I have a navy blue one (one of my wedding colors, so it''s not a completely random choice) that I adore. I''d rather get something I look good in than go with white just because it''s traditional; I''m jealous of you ladies who look fantastic in white!

I bought a dress from Alfred Angelo (where my BM dresses came from) that will serve triple duty: engagement photos, rehearsal dinner, and send-off at the end of the wedding. It''s in a color similar to my main wedding color...but not exactly the same because the fabric is different. Here''s what it looks like:

 

[blissfulbride]

yeah i want something nice but not over done you know

 

[jstarfireb]

Exactly, and I found the tea-length wrap dress to be perfect in that way.

My friend wore something similar from Jim Hjelm for her wedding:

...in light blue, which was one of her wedding colors. I like the idea of wearing a wedding color to the rehearsal, as you can tell.

I want to get one of these dresses in white or light blue:

I will wear white if the bridesmaids end up getting one of those dresses in powder blue. If they end up getting some other design than Mori Lee, I might get a powder blue in either of those designs.

I bought this lace BCBG dress https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/so-excited-just-bought-rehearsal-dinner-dress.107614/ and I think I am going to get it shortened to knee length for the rehearsal!

 

[galvana]

well..............................I really really REALLY want to wear this one

but I''ll probably end up wearing something else a bit more in my price range.

SO WE HAVE TO WEAR WHITE ? HOW ABOUT BLACK ?

 

[blissfulbride]

I LOVE THIS DRESS BUT IT ONLY COMES IN THIS GREEN AND IN BLACK

 

[blissfulbride]

I LOVE THIS ONE ALSO ! I LOVE LONG AIRY COMFORTABLE GOWNS. THOUGHTS ?

 

[lovesparklies]

I plan on wearing this dress. It''s very "me!" When I was looking for a dress I thought if I find a white dress I love that''s great, but the color isn''t going to be first thing I look for. I''ve had friends who wore white dresses to their rehearsal dinners that were obviously chosen only for the white color but weren''t that attractive otherwise. I say wear whatever color you want, including black!

 

[FrekeChild]

You can wear whatever you want to.

If we have a rehearsal dinner (BIG if, since we''re not having a rehearsal) I''m probably going to wear this dress:

 

[sunnyd]

Dude. That dress rocks Freke.

We don''t do rehearsal dinners over here but a huge group of us are heading out the night before and I think that I''ll wear this dress

 

[bee*]

Love the back of it

I love it too Bee!!!!! Gorgeous!!!

Lol. I have a bajillion blue shoes, and none match the dress. It''s ok, I''m not exactly matchy matchy anyway. I do have a dress that matches the shoes in my avatar though. Maybe I could wear that instead... Lol.

Thanks sunnyd and Freke! You should totally wear that dress when you''re in Vegas Freke-whether there''s a rehearsal or not. It''s gorgeous.

 

[FrekeChild]

Thanks Bee*!!!! I am going to take it for sure! I have to wear my other blue Anthropologie dress then too. I''m going to be decked out in blue dresses the whole time we''re there! (That''s the one that matches the shoe in my avatar.)

I don''t! It is called the Blue Moon Yonder dress or something like that, and I bought it last year.

This one has a similar look to the front, but mine is less structured and more flowy, and obviously a different color. It really almost matches my shoes perfectly. This dress is The-Grand-Holiday dress. $118 if anyone is interested.

They are so cute! I love it...too bad I am in LA =(

 

[kama_s]

This is my dress...and it was a steal at 85 CAD (so around 60 USD):
