The wedding is Feb 1st. I would love for the dress to have long sleeves since I am cold natured and it will be winter. I am the only aunt to the bride. Mother of the bride is wearing navy and gold.

thanks for any help.

Budget? Dress length?

Nothing short. Right above the knee or longer is fine. Under $300

Do you want to avoid navy?

Long sleeves really limit things. If you can consider other sleeve lengths, you’d have a lot more choices. So many of the long sleeved ones just look kinda matronly. But these 2 looked nice

So, what feedback do you have on that round? Any on the right track? Any way off?

What time is the wedding? Venue? Just to get an idea of how dressy a dress.

Snugglebuggles thank you!

I think 1st, 4th and 3rd are my favorites of what you sent.
I did not like the last one at all.

Hi. The wedding is at 4pm. Its at a place that is on lots of land. They built a chapel and a venue for the reception. If I was a guest I wouldnt worry so much, but being her only Aunt and knowing I will be in tons of photos, I would like to look really nice.

Of the ones snugglebuggles (I have never written that out, it's a fun name!), this one is my fav, and would be nice to have in your closet for other events.

Not sure of your size/shape, but some spanx and you are set!

Cool. I tossed that last one on because I so often only show ones that are to my taste but wanted to include a wild card. [emoji4] I’ll keep looking.
