I wore the dress everyone told me not to

A few months ago I came to this sub asking if this dress was too fancy for the dress code. I got a slew of comments about it being inappropriate because of the cleavage and a few comments about the dress being unflattering. Some people even said it was attention-seeking and I would be pulling attention away from the bride. I wore the dress. Literally no one at this small-ish reception batted an eye, there were other guests similarly dressed and I received many compliments. All this to say, maybe ask questions about wedding vibe before absolutely roasting the people who are posting. It’s not hard to be kind.

Cocktail appropriate?

Would this be appropriate for a September wedding with cocktail dress code? It’s at a NJ/NY waterfront estate if that helps. I believe it is an evening wedding. I tried it in dark green and really liked it, but got nervous about the thigh slit. I am 5’10, size 6. Would like a dress I can wear a normal bra with. I would absolutely appreciate other suggestions as well!!

Shoes!

Hi! I am having a bit of decision paralysis and could use some direction. I am attending a church wedding in Italy, the dress code is “summer formal - extravagant looks encouraged!” And plan to wear this dress. I want to bring in a fun pop of color with shoes and accessories, what color shoes would you go for? Or do I default to a nude heel? Thanks in advanced!

Wedding guest for "festive and jovial" cocktail

I'm attending a wedding in a few weeks with "cocktail - festive and jovial" as the DC. I wore this dress to a wedding earlier this summer where the bride said it was okay, got lots of compliments. Not sure if it's too white generally but I don't have anything else super festive! I don't know the couple at this upcoming wedding. Whaddya think?

Appropriate for a Formal Cocktail Attire wedding?

Too much? Too little? I haven’t been to a wedding in ages, and I’ll be about 20 weeks pregnant. This is the one slightly more formal dress I already own. I’m hoping to disguise the awkward bump/just-big-around-the-belly stage.
