Hi guys, I'm going to my H2B's cousins wedding tomorrow - he's an usher so I know I'll prob be in loads of photos. Problem is I have put a little bit of weight on and I don't feel comfortable at all in the coral dress I bought 2 months ago to wear. Even tho Dave says I look lovely I just know I'll be self conscious all day. I have a nice satin black dress which is quite forgiving and I was thinking of wearing it with gold shoes and accesories. Do you guys think this is acceptable for a wedding all day in August? I do feel the most comfortable in this one although if it's not appropriate I have a purple one I could wear. Please be as honest as u like :)

I think it's perfectly fine to wear a nice black number...you'll be instantly brightened up by the gold accessories. It's always best to feel comfortable. Have a lovely day xx
Thanks guys you've put my mind at rest a bit about it. Think the black one wins - then I can enjoy myself without feeling uncomfortable. Cheers to u all :)

I am a big lover of the little black dress and have quite a few! Ive wore black to a few weddings in the past and jazzed them up with colourful necklaces etc....I say go for it hun xx

I agree i would rather have my guests in black than looking really uncomfortable in my photos i dont think it matters any more what colour people anymore its how u enjoy the day that matters xx

Black is fine. If i had got my black dress before my partners brother had got married i would have wore that rather then my purple one that i was so not nice or comfy on me. I look horrid in the pictures as i dont feel compy
Cant wait to to marry Martyn
Wishes the wedding would come faster
XxX

yeah that's the thing I know I will look better in the pics if I feel better so it's definatly got to be black! Plus I'll enjoy the day much better. I'm glad it's ok to wear it - I thought it was ok but just thought I'd check. I'm a bit clueless about fashion and stuff. Thanks again for all your help x

no babe don't worry it's not lots of gold jewellery it's pale gold shoes and a bag out of Dune. My Dress is high neck so won't need a necklace but I've got nice gold drop earrings. Hoping it'll look nice x
