A Black Tie (optional) Affair

June 20, 2005 by Cindy 1 Comment

A big controversy is a brewin’… I shall be attending my good friend Heath’s wedding in July. The invitation states “Formal Suit Required, Black-Tie optional” which is well and good for the male guests… but us females have to dwell on the meaning…

Here is my dress

null

… It is not only beautiful, but the exact style and color I was hoping to find, and I look amazing in it (was even able to find SHOES to wear with it).
Here’s the rub… it is a summer wedding in mid afternoon. Hours have been spent pondering among friends what the right style of dress to wear really is. Is strapless/full lenght appropriate for the event? Would wearing white be a phopah if you are not the bride? What fabrics are “Black Tie Optional” appropriate? Are shoulders a no no if the wedding is in a church?

Reguardless, I am going to wear my light blue dress and I am going to look fabulous 😀
