I’m glad the bride gave you the thumbs up! Hoenstly, I think it used to be a lot easier to dress for weddings but now it’s hard to tell how formal things are going to be because no one really spells that stuff out on the invitations anymore.

Guys, just wanted to give an update. Sent a picture to the bride, asking if it was too white and her response is: “Heavens no! it’s BEAUTIFUL. You would be beautiful in it. Just come looking fabulous.”

Yeah I love the idea of a colored slip. My best friend is pretty laid back so I’m fairly certain when I ask her, she’s just going to roll her eyes, but I think asking is the best way. Thanks.

No love for Emilia Clarke’s freaking adorable outfit?? It’s so perfect! Tea length dress with the linen coat and the adorable ribbon heels? I lovvve ittttt.

Is the slip white too? I think if you’re really concerned then maybe put a blue slip underneath. I don’t think it’s too white, but if you’re feeling uneasy about it, just do whatever will make you the most comfortable.

Harington looks handsome as hell, too, but there are a lot of daring clothing choices happening: the cream vest, pinstripe pants and elongated black blazer certainly make a statement (one I’m still trying to decide if I’m about).

I had a friend once who encouraged people to wear red to her wedding because it’s a symbol of good luck. These etiquette rules tend to just kind of reflect one culture.

ah yes, some people have senses of humour, I always forget :)

Um, yah, you shouldn’t wear red to a GoT wedding...

Wait, can I ask a sort of OT question? I totally respect the no-white rule, BUT, my best friend is technically already married (did the courthouse thing a few weeks ago) AND when I was thinking of wearing it to another wedding, she said it was totally acceptable. But I’m paranoid that other people, like her parents,…

I think Sophie’s dressed for the bachelorette party and Maisie’s dressed for the rehearsal dinner.

It did seem a bit clubby for a wedding but not like, sloppy or anything--Maisie looks like a really on-trend hostess at a wine bar. Love it.

These were my exact thoughts re: Sophie’s outfit! Super cute but maybe not for a wedding and also I’m officially old. 

My grandmother was a seamstress and she often said that as a guest you never wear white, black or red to a wedding. Not white for obvious reasons, not black because black is for funerals and not red because it draws too much attention on someone else’s day. It’s sound advice and I have followed it.

He is wearing a morning suit which is traditional wedding attire - not really daring. And the “jeep” is a Land Rover Defender, which is very posh amongst the horsey country elite.

Rose Leslie is extremely posh - scruffy landrovers are a status symbol as per the Queen.  Kit is wearing a morning suit - traditional wedding wear for very posh weddings in the uk.

I love Rose’s dress. Not crazy about her haircut though. I hate Sansa’s outfit. She tries too hard to be edgy. Also, I’m going to be very disappointed if the band didn’t play the Rains of Castamere.

I remember the books being OK for me - but I think I was finding “two supernatural beings who should be enemies are in looooove” trope a bit annoying. However the scene with the oubliette was appropriately scary. Made me appreciate oubliettes.

I live in the community on the Canadian side of this story. There isn’t much of a sign, and especially if the tide is low, it’s very easy to cross accidentally. I’ve done it, and been caught, and it was a quick questioning and then we were sent back on our way. (I’m also very white). It really isn’t uncommon and I…

Yes, but that would require getting access to a burner and a pan to sauté the bread at these reunions, and those are in short supply, given how many we are and how much we like to eat. I’ve done something like what you suggested a few times for just me and my husband. Have you ever added cooked prosciutto? Yum.
