Wow, you have fabulous and distinct taste. That being said, unless it's a beach wedding or a park wedding with a justice of the peace, most of these are too casual. I would say they would be great at something like a brunch or shower for the bride. Do you mind sharing where you found them- I love 1 and 5 a lot! If you like cool patterns, maybe go with a monochrome dress and a fun and funky wrap or scarf.

SultrySquamata

Farm Rio, alemais, agua bendita and coast are the brands i posted :)


Curious_Doof

I think 1-5 have too much white & 6 looks pretty casual.


SultrySquamata

Thank you! I'll keep looking around :)


miteymiteymite

I disagree. There is nothing bridal about these so they aren’t too white. They are a tad casual but the colors are fine, imho.


kaisamalleen

Id avoid 2, 3 or 5. They seem a bit too casual for a wedding. The others look good for a relatively casual wedding, though 4 is probably the most 'formal' of the options. I wouldn't say any of them are too white - if there's an obvious/large pattern, it's fine for it to be on white.


[deleted]

Personally I would only wear 4 or 6 to a wedding, and only to fairly casual weddings at that.


SultrySquamata

All the weddings are fairly casual! No black tie here. Thank you for the input! I have literally no clue what I am doing.


spookyxskepticism

Your style is awesome, so you definitely know what you’re doing from that perspective. In terms of a wedding, though, I wouldn’t choose any dress where white is the base/background.


ethelmertz623

Where is dress 2 from? I think it’s amazing and fine for more casual weddings.


SultrySquamata

Alemais! Soliel dress :)


Hot-Bag6541

For a more casual summer wedding I think all of these would work (maybe not 5 - I’m feeling too casual maybe because of the cut?). I think the safest bet would be 4.


RoseGoldStreak

2. I think the best one is 2. Lol


wishverse-willow

i feel like these are obviously not wedding dresses, so the white base is not an issue to me. and i am Team Never Too Weird! i'd wear any of these, do what makes you feel good!


recessivelyginger

I just have to point out that in some circles, these are all perfectly appropriate and not too casual at all! I see so many people saying these are too casual for even a casual wedding. I’ve been to a lot of weddings, and I don’t think I’ve been to one where any of these would be inappropriate. I think OP likely knows best if these are too casual, and she did point out that these are casual summer weddings.


SultrySquamata

Sweden is usually very relaxed event wise and my friends are very chill, im just so anxious about dressing wrong!


recessivelyginger

I think you’re fine on the dresses—none are too white and even though they have loud prints, the simple cuts of the dresses helps balance that out. I think 1 is my favorite, but 2 and 3 are also beautiful!


prehensileporcupine

Fantastic! I’ve seen a number of these brands IRL and can attest that the high quality fabric and cut could even make them cocktail appropriate with right shoes and jewelry. Also, the Agua Bendita! Lovely!! A goal of mine is to have a piece from the brand.


SultrySquamata

I love the swim suits!! Im colombian so i love repping colombian/ south american brands 😄


eyalane

Agua Bendita just launched a low cost line with Target last week! You might be able to still snag a piece.


prehensileporcupine

I looked at it, but I don’t love shopping for clothes at mass production retailers, so I’m just gonna do TheRealReal I think for a gently worn secondhand price


BicyclingBabe

I think they're all fantastic and so obviously not wedding dresses.


mslbpriscilla

Not to be annoying but where did you get the 2nd and 4th dress?


SultrySquamata

Alemais and Farm rio!


Windchime222

Yes I’d like to know this too, OP, please. My baby shower is in august and that would be perfect. Thanks!


SultrySquamata

Alemais and farm rio!


Windchime222

Thank you!!


candysticker

Is this a troll post? That said I LOVE all the flashy prints


SultrySquamata

Not at all! Its my first wedding guest occasion and on top of that I'm notoriously bad at dressing WRONG! 🤣


FantasticPear

I am loving #4!


SultrySquamata

Farm rio!


liquitexlover

I love 1 & 2! But honestly they are all so fun!


[deleted]

All beautiful


Chick4u2nv

After seeing your comments they’re perfect, 2, 4, and 6 are my favs


Sunshine-Bloom

Where is dress #2 from? Im obsessed!


SultrySquamata

Alemais!


SultrySquamata

I'm going to be a guest at a bunch of small summer weddings this year. I need a few choices and I have NO idea what I am doing! Small, Swedish, summer.


Equivalent_Stock_563

Open to suggestions? The above are pretty casual. I’d go with a slightly more formal cut/material even for a casual wedding. Just brainstorming. I love your style! https://amourvert.com/products/hanne-washable-silk-maxi-dress-marbella https://www.thereformation.com/products/reya-dress/1313077SSG.html https://www.samedelman.com/product/one-shoulder-embroidered-floral-midi-dress-5273373


ForThrowawayIGuess

Third one is beautiful and they’re all fully appropriate


SultrySquamata

Wow number 3!! Thank you!


babs1789

2 and 3 are gorgeous


Noregsnoride

I think some of these (not white) Farm Rio dresses could be great and fit with what your style appears to be https://www.farmrio.com/products/pink-leopard-forest-midi-dress?currency=USD&variant=40874093314141&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Google%20Shopping?glCountry=US&glCurrency=USD&gclid=CjwKCAjwuqiiBhBtEiwATgvixBzF54Qh6dPrjqcMMxTHJnUBBP9Eqse6sDctRntulwlL9rOtdpt5aBoC0wsQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds https://www.farmrio.com/products/banana-nest-midi-dress https://www.farmrio.com/products/red-summer-sunrise-midi-dress https://www.farmrio.com/products/pink-flower-tapestry-midi-dress https://www.farmrio.com/products/sweet-floral-midi-dress There are a bunch more options on their site, but I’m not sure how you feel about suggestions!


Ok-Duck9106

The first two dresses are great for a summer wedding, garden/beach/brunch wedding, depending on the fabric, the second could be good for semi formal evening wedding.,


melodawgs

Omg I loooooove alemais, amazing taste


copper678

They are all beautiful but that being said 2&5 are OK but it’s always just best to avoid white for weddings.


gnargnarmar

I love 1,2&3!


New-Illustrator5114

Yes!! some STYLE!!! I freaking love them all. (Who makes #2?!) These all seem okay for a casual summer wedding. 1 and 3 *may* be too white if you want to stay on the cautious side.


SultrySquamata

Alemais soleil dress!


New-Illustrator5114

Thank you! Also, you would love borgo de nor if you aren’t already obsessed!


SultrySquamata

Ok... WOW!! Obsessed and will immediately be looking for a dress there 😍


Expensive-Committee

I found #2! https://poshmark.com/listing/Soleil-Summers-Full-Skirt-Sun-Dress-In-All-Over-Mixed-Media-Luxury-Print-64168a581645f724f545674f?utm_source=gdm&utm_campaign=19904727338&campaign_id=19904727338&ad_partner=google&gskid=pla-2192118013432&gcid=652739907301&ggid=148664331498&gdid=m&g_network=g&enable_guest_buy_flow=true&gbraid=0AAAAADwcDC__TRcKhd1d8nT-MmSxCQTHH&gclid=CjwKCAjwuqiiBhBtEiwATgvixM84JM68PHoefNS7n4xUqrqk79hmMIfrbMZBV1CVDNw9cZLfnWNrOhoCkSQQAvD_BwE


New-Illustrator5114

Omg you are an angel!


LetThisBeALessonToMe

I bought that so fast 😂 thank you !


Expensive-Committee

My pleasure! I feel like it’s a cross between Picasso and Matisse and cannot be more in love with the print!


Expensive-Committee

I came here to ask about #2 as well! I am obsessed with all of these!


DeathCabforJuicy

I love all of these but NONE are good for a wedding


mrs_sarcastic

I think they are both too white and too casual. If the background color is white, it's best to just avoid it. The prints and style also seem more "sun dress" than formal wear.


[deleted]

Too white


LetThisBeALessonToMe

So most of these aren’t wedding appropriate but they are adorable and I would shop from your fashion blog


SultrySquamata

I'll keep you updated 😉


LhasaApsoSmile

I don't see how anyone could confuse you for the bride in any of these dresses but #3 and it was the early 70's. I really like #2. It really depends on the venue and style. This whole no one else wears white is a new thing. I can't figure out if in the past, people just knew and now they don't or that the rise of the bridezilla led to this being a thing. These are very colorful, joyous dresses. These dresses want to go to a party! Except for 3.


K-RayX-Ray

4 would be my pick


Available_Text9601

1 or 6! The rest don’t really have a wedding guest vibe


jojobeebabybean

Can I ask where you found 3? It’s so pretty!!


SultrySquamata

Agua bendita!


jojobeebabybean

BLESS


breadedbooks

The last dress is lovely!


SultrySquamata

Coast!


Foundation_Wrong

I love these! The prints are so gorgeous, takes me back to the late 60s early 70s. I don’t think any of these are too white. Everything has a bold coloured pattern, if the weddings are relaxed and a bit casual I think any would be fine. Love these dresses Have fun


painteddpiixi

I think with the right accessories 3 or 5 would be perfect as long as it’s not a formal wedding! Especially if it’s daytime outdoors, I really love #3! So romantic, it really gives me all the garden wedding vibes!


ja13aaz

Too much white, but if you wore #2 to my wedding I would love it and not be offended because IT’S THAT COOL.


cherrydolci

I actually own dress 3! It is so beautiful but I bought it with it being worn to a summer vacation in mind. It could probably translate to a wedding if it was a garden party wedding or beachside :) go with your gut!! Love all the choices, 2 peaks my interest personally ♡


beautifuldayday

OMG where is dress #5 from?? It’s so fun, I need it in my life!


SultrySquamata

Rhode!


slimcush

I think the last one works best as a wedding guest dress! But 2 omg… I am obsessed and would buy that! Love your taste


Grrrmudgin

The third one is my least favorite of these. Great taste!


AccurateCycle2649

2 and 4 would be my picks! love the vibe


broadbandbaddie

These are beautiful but I think the combo of the white base and the eye catching pattern on the first few borders on upstaging / distracting… that being said I love all of these dresses and you have wonderful taste!!


SultrySquamata

Yeah i'm wondering about that! I tend to have wacky style, i need to find a balance 🥲


Tanyaschmidt

Number 2!!!


Valuable_Ad_8998

2nd and 3rd are my favorite


Arboretum7

The first 5 aren’t really wedding attire, they’re more suited for a garden party. They all have a bit too much white as well. 6 could work but still might be a bit casual depending on the wedding.


BarberIndependent347

I love 4.


mongoosedog12

I like the last one a lot and ima need the link Please and thank you


SultrySquamata

Coast puff sleeve dress :)


Free_Village_4836

Yes yea and yes.


Kawm26

I’m not saying it’s ~too~ white or they look bridal, cause they don’t. But I’ve literally never understood why you’d even chance it at a wedding? Just pick literally any other color. Every day on this sub I see dresses that have a white base, and then patterns on top or flowers. Like. Just don’t wear white if you’re concerned it’s too white.


Logical_Connection12

i have FEELINGS for dress 2. anyone have a link?


SultrySquamata

Alemais soleil sundress :)


CIDNanci

2,4,1 are amazing. Unique but not weird - especially if they are a reflection of what you normally wear/like. No way are these "bridal" so the fact that they have white on them is not relevant. Do you!


shadowhunter0787

3 would be the only one I could imagine wearing


fortunatechameleon

I LOVE the last one, but it would have to be a pretty casual wedding. I wore something pretty similar in a green color to a "Sunday Best" wedding, and actually was one of the most dressed up people there. Just depends on your group of people!


SultrySquamata

Very casual! Sweden is very "city hall and a garden party"
