I have found surprisingly nice dresses for cheap at Old Navy this summer, probably comparable in price to a thrift store. I wore a couple to weddings and got lots of compliments. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1789480 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 12:28:36 +0000 winter_wonder 1789480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone! I may check with a friend to see what she has. I may also swing past the thrift store to see if they have any good deals :) </p> <p>If all else fails, I won't feel terrible about the dressy pants and top! Whew :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787934 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 18:17:52 +0000 shopaholic 1787934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always worn a dress. I also thick borrowing from a friend is a great idea if that's an option! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787908 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 17:48:16 +0000 hotchildinthecity 1787908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree, i've always worn a dress. Could you borrow one or hit a sale? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787629 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 15:10:42 +0000 Alivoo01 1787629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A dress. Could you borrow one from a friend or hit up a department store and see what's on sale at like Macy's/Dillard's, etc.? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787592 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:59:45 +0000 bunnylovesbear 1787592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wear dresses to weddings...usually little black dresses. :). With that said, dress pants should be fine. I remember seeing someone at my wedding wearing pants and a nice top; however, if we are being honest here, I do recall thinking it was strange that she didn't wear a dress or skirt. I wasn't offended or anything, just surprised. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787581 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:54:36 +0000 anandam 1787581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like others, I think I've always worn a dress, but there are always some women in nice pants and it has never seemed inappropriate to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787539 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:32:36 +0000 PurplePumps 1787539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always worn a dress, but as long as you look dressed up, I think pants a nice top would work too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787534 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:29:25 +0000 HeartAbandoned 1787534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually opt for a dress, too, but as long as there aren't any strict dress requirements on the invitation, nice pants and a blouse should be perfectly fine. And if you don't feel comfortable going that route, maybe hit up a thrift store? You never know what sort of treasures you can find! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787533 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:26:26 +0000 Mommy Finger 1787533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it totally depends on the wedding. Most of the weddings I go to are pretty formal but I've been to a few that were more laid back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787522 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:23:27 +0000 tysonja 1787522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that would be fine! wear statement jewellery and do your hair and make up :)! yay weddings :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787517 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:22:19 +0000 PawPrints 1787517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wear a knee-length dress, but nice pants and top could definitely work, I would think (unless it's a really formal wedding). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787515 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:21:54 +0000 snowjewelz 1787515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it'll be fine, although I've always worn dresses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787506 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:19:18 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1787506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually wear dresses. Dressy fabric for pants &amp; tops and accessories are appropriate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787491 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:15:40 +0000 MrsPastryLady 1787491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pair it with some really great jewelry and/or a "party belt" as my aunt calls them to bring the outfit together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787490 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:15:24 +0000 Boogs 1787490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wear a dress because I find it easier to figure out one piece instead of two. But, I see no reason why you can't wear nice pants and a nice top unless it's a super formal wedding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787465 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:08:02 +0000 LuLu Mom 1787465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wear a dress, usually a black one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787463 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:07:11 +0000 Raindrop 1787463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have always wore a dress too. Is there a skirt you have that you can wear? :) I have totally seen women wear very nice pant/shirt outfits to weddings. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787450 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:00:53 +0000 mrs. bird 1787450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i always wear a dress, but there were guests at my wedding in pants and blouses that were totally appropriate. i think it depends on the formality of the wedding though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787448 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:00:04 +0000 Arden 1787448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a "go to" because I haven't attended very many weddings.<br /> I think a dressy pants outfit could be fine though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-normally-wear-to-weddings#post-1787441 Tue, 29 Jul 2014 13:58:30 +0000 mrsjyw 1787441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually opt for a dress.

I was thinking about wearing a dressy pair of pants and top. </p> <p>My other normal "go to" wedding dresses are a bit snug (ok, really snug :( ) </p> <p>Do you normally wear dresses or are pants acceptable? </p>
