Are you going to wear white at your rehearsal dinner?

I will probably shop soon for a dress for my rehearsal dinner. I thought it would be cute to wear a somewhat casual short white dress, but then I read this article about rehearsal dinner attire that said:

"You should probably avoid anything close to what you're wearing the next day -- white, off-white or ivory."

I know I can do what I want and I don't have to listen to this... but just wondering how many people are going to wear white vs not?

    I plan to make myself a cute white dress I can wear to the rehearsal and to the shower. It will be short and lace, and not very similar to my wedding dress. I figure why not wear white, I'm the bride. (Although I will probably spill on myself. I wore a white dress to work a few weeks ago and spilt an entire cup of coffee in my lap before an important meeting.)

    Thanks Becky. I found it on the clearance rack at DB. It was the last one on the rack. It is too big (which is perfect for alteration) so my friend's mother will do the alterations as a gift.

    I would wear whatever you want to wear...personally, I'll be in jeans and a t-shirt, because we are decorating right after the rehearsal. Smiley smile

    We are dressy causal. We are having the guys be in nice jeans or Khaki pants with a button down shirt or a polo shirt

    For the ladies we are having them be in nice nice jeans or jean skirt with a dressy top or sweater or a causal dress.

    For me as the bride I can't decide what I want to wear. I am debating on denim jeans or white jeans and dressy top or sweater but don't know and my rehearsal dinner is this Friday 10/10

    Plus the venue is a greenhouse not a very fancy venue
