Reception Dress

Doubt anyone will notice. Go for it.

Strange if you were the same color and dress. But if you are in ivory and they are in other colors, it will be fine. And it takes a big chunk off the price not to be labeled as for a bride. Lots of evening gowns for honeymoons, or reception dresses intended for sale to brides in salons are priced much higher than the exact dress marketed for bridesmaids.

I think that’s a very cute idea and will photograph well. Just glam it up a bit with some jewelry and you’ll be a bit more distinctive/bridal.

Hi Cori,
I'm changing into the same dress that my bridesmaids are wearing!
I'll wear this one in lavender, my girls will be in lilac, below, and then my wedding dress.

Oh that’s interesting aha I’ve never quite heard of that but I think like pp said if you’re gonna do it try to stand out some other way as well

Do it! It's your big day love. Have fun with it.

This is the bridesmaid dress I picked. They are wearing it in purple. It comes in ivory.

But I also found this.

It's your wedding, Do whatever makes you happy!

The ruffles are really cool on the bridesmaids dress!! I'd say go for it!

I’d go with the short dress, it’s flattering on you

View Quoted Comment Thank you.

I love that idea! Go for it!

View Quoted Comment I think that’ll look great! I was all set with appointments to get my dress hemmed and bustled but now I’m having doubts.

I think that would be super cute. I do love the short dress in the pic. what kind of wedding are you having? I do love when brides do unique thing to make their wedding their own. I put a different touch when it come to my belt on my dress just to be different from other brides.

Love it! It's your wedding do what you want!

I've been debating about wearing a dress that is the color of my bridesmaids dresses for my bachelorette party. I know typically the bachelorette wears white but even my wedding dress is champagne not white and it's going to be at someone's home since COVID-19. Any thoughts?
