Semi formal garden party - mt hood wedding
Hey y’all!
Looking for help in deciding which of these to wear to my cousins wedding at the end of the month!
The invite says semi formal/garden party for the dress code.
I wanted to find something a bit funky or different but ended up finding the light green dress which to me is classic garden party. I found the blue one shoulder dress after and just thought it was fun but not sure if it’s flattering or fitting for this event, even though it does have a flower pattern.
Also I would arrange the waist/belt situation nicely, in the photos I just threw it on and it’s a bit sloppy.
Thoughts???! Thank you!

Which is more appropriate for a ‘cocktail to formal’ wedding.
Note that this is a very small backyard wedding in about a week from now. I prefer the blue dress but am worried it might not be formal enough…

Which dress?
My sister is getting married in September in Victoria BC and I can't choose! Which dress should I wear? She has a cocktail dress code but she said she just wants everyone to feel fabulous and likes both of these too.

I hate the dress I had altered for a wedding
Wedding details - 7p wedding in a church with the reception in a bar. No dress code.
The pink dress was altered for a wedding with 15 days notice. I hate it. Does it look as bad as I feel it does? Do either of the other 2 work (blue flower or black) or should I wear the pink? Is black totally out of the question? Would the black work with a blush, burgundy, or champagne chiffon shawl or silver belt?

Which should I wear?
I'm a guest at a wedding on Friday and have no idea which, if any of these dresses woild qualofy aa semiformal. The yellow one has a stain I just noticed so I'd have to do some work on it before I could wear it.

Between three dresses
I’m one of 8 bridesmaids and we are all allowed to pick anything from a specific color pallet. All of these colors work. The fabric for everyone is satin, hairstyle is ponytail, and n**e heels. The wedding is indoors, NYC in early February.

Which dress? (Bridesmaid)
Bridesmaid in a semi formal to formal dress code wedding (early fall in the Northeast). Dress needs to be purple or pinkish purple is ok too. Which of these is best?

Which dress should I wear to a wedding at a barn in early September in Pennsylvania? Or should I keep looking? No dress code given.
Help me choose! Or should I go shopping?

Opinions on semi formal dress code?
Wedding is in Sacremento end of September, so while it seems like transitioning to fall season, it'll still be 90 degrees that day! I'm struggling to find less spring/summery options that still work in the high heat.
These are from my closet and one from a friend. Would prefer not to buy another dress if one of these looks ok. I'm just a plus one and don't know the couple, so won't be in a lot of photos.
Website dress code says:
"Wear something you are comfortable in. Dressy but not black tie formal. Semi-formal vineyard vibes!"
Thanks!

Black tie optional
Which dress is best (if either) ? Outdoor wedding ceremony and tent reception next month. Dress code on their website says: black tie optional - gowns or cocktail dresses are equally acceptable. The 1st dress (emerald) I would need to reorder in a size down. 3rd pic is just a closeup of the 2nd dress.

We are upcycling and repurposing this year’s Festival of Thrift in response to 2020… an extraordinary year full of unforeseen challenges and hardships for all of us.
After weeks of careful consideration we have come to the decision, along with our great friends and partners at Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council, that holding a large-scale festival in Kirkleatham will not be possible this year.
However, although our Festival of Thrift event scheduled to take place in Kirkleatham on September 12 and 13 2020 has been officially cancelled, in our true thrifty style, we will instead be going ahead with a repurposed Festival that has had a socially distanced makeover for 2020.
Sharing, creating, learning and building a sustainable community together are more relevant than ever. We have been inspired by how our communities have adapted to our new way of living and we want to harness some of that creative sustainable spirit and share it with the world.
So, in September we will still be celebrating, albeit from afar, but with our usual creative flair. We hope that, wherever you are, you will all join us to share, create, learn and enjoy in an alternative way.
As with any great upcycling project there is quite a lot of work being done in the background before the big reveal so - Watch This Space!
We would like to thank all of you for your patience and understanding and we ask you to keep following our social media and communications so we can continue to update you on the progress of our latest exciting project.
We will thrift again…
Warmest wishes and love from the Festival of Thrift Team
