Is this appropriate for a wedding?

I've been planning for a long time to wear this dress for a wedding, and with just one week to go, it struck me that it's white! I can't believe I didn't think of that before. I mean, it's got the print on it, no one would mistake it for looking "bridal," but is it too much white to be appropriate at a wedding? I'd hate to be "that girl"...

Note: I'm not concerned about the casual style of the dress. It's an afternoon wedding in PA, and I'm familiar with the level of dressed-up that their family expects. Just trying to figure out if I need to run around shopping this weekend now, because somehow the color of the dress didn't occur to me before. Chat Icon TIA!

It's a pretty dress & I don't think it's enough white not to wear the dress. Wear it.

It's totally fine. It's got enough color in it that it doesn't come across as a "white dress" at all.

It's not too white. I didn't even notice the white with the other pretty detail on the dress.

Very cute!

I think color-wise its fine. On the model it looks a little short thought. That would be my issue. If its that short on you, I would say no.

I am nowhere near as tall as the model! Chat Icon It hits just above the knees on me.

No I wore something similar to a wedding. I wore a black shrug with it.
