I'm pretty sure that the answer to your question varies from parish to parish, so you really should ask the person who is performing your ceremony.

I wore spaghetti straps and a 'kinda-sorta' low sweetheart neckline and my church was okay with it.

I got married at a RC Church and wore a strapless dress and there wa no problem. I didn't have to wear a blusher either.

I got married at St. Agnes Cathedral (the Diocese of RVC Cathedral where the Bishop sits) and I wore a strapless dress, as did my 6 BM's. But I would ask your church anyway.

I got married there, I dont believe they have any type of restrictions on that stuff so long as you feel comfortable. If you are still unsure - call

My church never inquired about what my dress looked like, so if they don't ask, why volunteer?

This is your wedding dress, not your friend's dress. If the church has no problem with you having a strapless dress, then that should be the end of it.
