OK Dress for Mother of the Groom Rehearsal Dinner?

[Anonymous]

As a bride, I wouldn’t have cared. But all my friends would talk trash about you and they’d be sure to point it out to me later and ask if I was annoyed.

Just wear a different color.

It is beautiful. I think white is fine for a rehearsal dinner.

So weird to read these replies. It’s floral not white. If you love it it’s fine. It does not look like a wedding dress at all!

This. Weddings bring a lot of people together and some of them will be judgmental, drama-prone, and immature. I think sometimes people are just bored and looking for some wedding gossip or drama to chew on for the weekend. This dress will get some of those people talking, and personally I'd rather not make myself a bullseye in that way. I think some others wouldn't care or might even enjoy it.

But if OP is asking about appropriateness here, she's probably more like me and should just pick another dress.

wow you ladies dress fancy

Just FYI I saw today that TRR has a lot of this brand of dress for CONSIDERABLY less $

This one has the white and the flowers, but seems less like a *white dress* - and it wouldn't overwhelm a small person: https://www.therealreal.com/products/women/clothing/dresses/teri-jon-printed-mini-dress-kblc9

I think this one is really pretty but wrong size: https://www.therealreal.com/products/women/clothing/dresses/teri-jon-printed-midi-length-dress-k2jqx

Anyway - worth a look perhaps.

Get the pink one!

The pink one is the way to go, OP!

I just realized that the model looks like Gretchen Whitmer
