I bought 2 possible RD dresses... thoughts? *with pix* --- SHOE PIX ON P2
Original post by bluegreen08
18 days before my rehearsal dinner and I still haven't decided on a dress! I had one in mind, but I accidentally wore it to my surprise shower! Worked out well, but I'd rather not wear it to the RD now
I went to the mall last night and bought 2 dresses. They are very different but I figured I can always return one or both, and at least I have options now!
What do you think? (I wouldn't necessarily wear them with the shoes in the picture, but please comment on shoes too)

I don't like the white/ivory for the RD since I believe you will be wearing white on the wedding day. I thought you looked gorgous in it, but I think you should wear a different color. JMO.

I love the ivory one for the RD! It's classy! I also love the blue and white one and I would wear that on your honeymoon. Yay for shopping! Did you ever get your blue shoes?

Love both dresses... the only reason I would say go with the blue/black one for the RD is b/c everyone will see you in a white dress the next day... so I would go with something different. You look fabulous in both so I'd definitely keep them! (I accidentally clicked return ivory dress- i pressed the wrong one!)

I really like them both!! Me, personally, I would wear the white one to my RD... Its more wedding like to me.. I wouldn't return the blue one either... Maybe you can wear it for something on your HM!

I voted ivory for RD and keep the blue one, both are beautiful. I was big on wearing a shade of white for our RD. I'd pair that ivory dress with a strapless gold sandal...silver might work as well. Very nice.

thanks for the responses ladies! I'm pretty set on wearing the ivory dress for the RD. I'm leaning toward keeping the blue/black dress too.
What shoes would you wear with it? I always feel goofy wearing my black work pumps (pic #1) with a dress. I thought the shoes in #2 might be interesting bc they are a deep purple -- hard to see in the pic -- but I'm not crazy about the ankle strap.
I'm thinking maybe silver or gold? I also have navy satin pumps... I'll post some pictures
Pix 1&2 are the purple ones in the pic
pic 3 i have in blue (a little darker in real life) and grey
i have some strappy gold shoes that are kind of uncomfy and also have an ankle strap
my BMs are wearing silver and I might be able to borrow a pair from one of them

they both look great on you. i would wear the white for the RD. are you staying at a hotel that night and having breakfast there with family the next day? you could wear that second dress then, or save it for the honeymoon

i love the white dress! that's the one i voted for.
i also voted to keep the other dress ... you already have it in your possession, and a girl could always use another nice dress. you could definitely wear it on your honeymoon, and have a nice dress-up dinner with your brand new hubby (if you're not stressed for the money, if you are, then i would return it)
also, i would NOT, under any circumstances, wear a pair of uncomfortable shoes the night before your wedding! the wedding day is loooooong, and you don't want to start the day with your feet already being in pain from the shoes for the rehearsal dinner.
