    Love the dress. A guest to our wedding in July wore a little black dress with a black fascinator and shoes. Didn't see anything wrong with it at all. Think the 'no black' rule is a bit out-dated now, but thats just my opinion. :)

    I have to say I wouldn't wear it. I just don't think it would be appropriate at a wedding. :o
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    I think it's lovely. I went to a wedding last week and some women were in complete black dresses, which I don't consider appropriate, and some even in white!

    That's a gorgeous dress! I'd wear it to a wedding, no problem!

    I've book marked it and may treat myself to it :)

    Your dress is gorgeous and will be perfect.

    I think all black dresses and all white dresses are a no no at weddings. If you're wearing black accessories or a dress with a patern or a mix of colours is fine. But wearing all black is better than wearing all white! ;)
