Depends on your faith and/or parish priest/pastor. As long as they give you the go-ahead, consider it OK.
If you still feel uncomfortable, or think your guests may be conservative, consider wearing a shawl or jacket for your ceremony. I think it’s best to err on the side of being too covered rather than uncomfortable and embarassed (or causing others embarassment).
We had a Cathedral wedding (Catholic Mass), and my priest was fine with strapless gowns, etc. Your best bet is to ask.
Use good judgement and common sense. If you have a very large chest and have cleavage spilling out everywhere, it may be in bad taste to wear that sort of style for a church wedding. Again, you need to take your case individually. Note that some faiths/parashes have very strict rules regarding gowns.
If your church says it is OK, then consider it OK. If in doubt, ask your priest/pastor directly. You may want to show him the actual style of the gown.
Good luck!
Yes, that’s fine.
Yeah mine has a sweetheart neckline- I think (it is the square one right).
I think low cut necklines, strapless and spaghetti straps are tacky for weddings, especially church weddings.
It can be, as long as you aren’t dipping down too low!
I can’t even begin to think why it would be inappropriate. If you like it and it looks good on you then wear it.
Yes, I think it will be fine. I help plan weddings and have had lots of brides go down the isle in the church with a sweat heart neck line. Since you are getting married this is a great site. http://www.BeeBows.Net. Hope I have helped!
It’s totally appropriate. If the church representative/officiant has no problem with it, then it’s perfectly acceptable.
Don’t worry about it.
It’s not like you’re getting married in a tube top and miniskirt.
Absolutely! Plus, its nice and summery. Here are some great hairstyles I found that are stunning.http://lifestyle.msn.com/specialguides/s…
(i love all 10)
I think someone is putting a thumbs down on every single answer that comes.
Do you like the dress? Is it so low it’s revealing? If you like it and the dress is NOT revealing then by all means wear it to the wedding. I bet you’d not want a Gibson girl dress with a high neckline and leg-o-mutton sleeves, because that was my choice, not yours. Go with your taste and have a wonderful day and equally wonderful married life-congrats.
I think that neckline is fine.
My worry for a church wedding is only when the gown is strapless or sleeveless. For this reason, I am buying a jacket to go with my sleeveless dress.
Scandalous!!!
