Shower Dress Thoughts?

cdc150 · January 16, 2012

Since we are having a small wedding in the DR, I am having a shower with our whole families and friends on March 3rd at a local country club. My wedding colors are aqua and coral my shower has somewhat of a beach theme. I found this dress on Lilly Pulitzer that I sorta love, but I think it may be too casual for my shower. Especially because it will still be cold here in PA. My sister said it was too casual, my BM said I should wear it with a cardigan. I need more opinions.... what do you ladies think?

that is so adorable!! I'd have a cardigan on hand depending on the temp of the room, but I don't necessarily think it's too casual. I wore a grey sweater dress and black boots to my shower this weekend, so I wasn't all that fancy :-)

Cute dress!! You can wear something like that to an afternoon shower. I am in a predicament I have no idea when my shower is it;s a surprise, but I feel like there's somethings you can wear to an afternoon shower that you can't wear to a night one and vice versa. Here in NY that's the new thing - night showers. I just ordered two dresses. My mom and MOH said I can be as dressed u as I want since I am the bride. Which also gives me the assumption of it being in the pm. So confusing =(

I agree that it would be ok for an afternoon shower. Maybe you can wear a cardigan over it and take it off as the day goes. I think if you just dress it up with some nice accessories it will be fine. But I would take the advice of whoever is planning it since they know what the atmosphere will be like.
