The Other White Dresses You May Need For Your Wedding

Now that I have my wedding dress picked out, I'm starting to think about the other white dresses I may need for my wedding - dresses for the shower, the bachelorette party, and the rehearsal dinner.  No, you don't have to wear white to these events (and a lot of brides don't), but I love white dresses and am definitely excited to wear white as much as possible while we're engaged.

You may be thinking to yourself, "But Kristina, your wedding is still 10 months away!  Do you really need to start thinking about these outfits already?"  No, I don't technically, but in the interest in saving my sanity as we get closer to the big day, as well as the fact that summery dresses are on sale now and Nordstrom has an amazing return policy, it doesn't hurt to start looking now.

For the shower I'm looking for something pretty, girly, and sweet.  Fit and flares that are a little more covered up feel appropriate to me.  I won't say no to a little pattern or accent color either!

For the bachelorette party, I'm really looking to go all out.  Sequins, embellishment, feathers - they're all okay by me!  I'm also looking for a shorter and more body-con style.  At almost $600, the first dress is definitely out of my price range, but a girl can dream, right?

A lot of people don't seem to think about the rehearsal dinner that much, but I'm actually super excited for it (and not just because Beyonce and JayZ ate at the restaurant where we're having the dinner last month).  It's the more laid-back event of our wedding weekend where I'll actually get a chance to visit with all of our family who are coming into town.  For the rehearsal dinner, I'm looking for something that's classy and elegant, with either a sheath or small fit and flare silhouette.  


Would you wear white for all of these events?  Which look is your favorite?

  5. I went to a wedding this weekend, and the bride had so many little white dresses that I realized I seriously need to up my game for next year! I love white dresses, too, so I'm more than happy to add a few to my closet. Thanks for the inspiration!

  6. Love the cut out dresses. In Spain we don't have so many wedding events. But it looks great fun. I hope you enjoy the preparations for your wedding.

  7. I started thinking about what to wear for these events months ago too! I always want to give myself enough time to find something perfect, which could take a long time! I'm really excited about the rehearsal dinner too, it's probably what I found a dress for first!
