    If you do wear the black one, brighten it up with a colorful or light shawl, not a black one. All black to a wedding seems inappropriate.

    The gold one is lovely, but I think I would add a shawl to it, too. Maybe one of those long rectangular ones that you let slide down to catch in your elbows. Otherwise it feels a bit stiff and formal.

    The pink is great, but may be a bit too casual for certain venues (Catholic or Episcopal church services for instance).

    I would go with the pink one. The bride will be in white or off white as well as the mother of the bride. It is never a good idea to look better then the bride.
    The black one, would be more appropriate for a memorial service.

    Definately pink.

    And may I say, You look damn good!!

    def pink. the cream one is too close to white, which is a big no no! and the black is too, well, black for a wedding.

    i love #2 and #3

    I would accessorise the black dress with different heels - maybe gold or silver and glammed up earrings, bracelets etc.

    but really girl, you are going to rock anything you wear!

    The pink or black. The middle one, even though it's not white, still looks like a bridal gown in photos.

    I would say the black one with bright shoes and matching bright accessories!

    The pink one i think would be most appropriate for a wedding! Black is depressing white or off white isnt appropriate usually so the pink one i think would be my choice.

    Thanks everyone!
    I own all of three dresses so it will not be an extra expense. I was thinking the gold tone one was maybe a bit too close to white but I like it so much that I thought I would ask.
    We are staying in a hotel and going back there before the reception so it would not be a big deal to have the pink one for the ceremony and the black one for the reception. I love dressing up so that would not be a problem at all!

    I will be wearing pearls with the pink / gold and a topaz necklace with matching earrings and bracelet with the black one.

    You look beautiful in all the dresses.

    However, I have to agree with whoever said the pink one is a little too 'old style' for you. I'd rule that out. I love the gold one, very classic, but I'd go for the black one. Maybe wear it with a colourful clutch and jacket. Forget about a shall. Have a great day whatever you choose x

    I have silver heels. Didn't think of them until you mentioned it.

    Love that black one. Pink for afternoon wedding, black for evening.

    NEVER cream or white to a wedding unless you're the bride! LOL!

    Now that I've seen the black, my vote remains for black 100%. Looks great.

    In the afternoon, the pink. In the evening, the black.

    The black is more of an evening dress. I'd wear something like that to a play or special restaurant. You'll most likely not really wear the shawl if you're dancing which means you definitely need some bright shiny jewelry and would want something other than black shoes. Also, if you want some nice pictures taken of you and your hubby (guessing they are wearing traditional black), you're going to blend and not stand out.

    I'd go the pink route. You don't need a lot of jewelry and it's bright and cheerful and you'll like a nice contrast against your hubby. It's young (less funeral like) and I think it actually accentuates your curves nicely. It's probably easier to match up with any type of shoe (would take a pair of flats - I've had several weddings where shoes started to cause horrible blisters so you want a back up soft pair that will easily go with the dress). I suspect there will be dancing so that pink dress will make it easier for your hubby to find you if you send him off to get you a drink. Besides, it's darn right sexy.

    Pink! Pick the pink!

    Go with the pink for an afternoon or outdoor wedding, go with the black for an evening or more formal wedding. Don't wear white or off-white to a wedding!!

    I think the black is most appropriate with the shawl. The pink is cute but too summery and the gold one might be too attention grabbing.

    Love the Pink. Don't wear white or cream whatever you do. That belongs to the bride. You look fabulous in all 3, btw.

    I like the black one, looks formal
    but not in any way stuffy or over done.

    the pink one! the material on the gold one shows every single line and curve. wouldn't suggest black to a wedding. The pink one is pretty, fits you nicely, and can be dressed up or down for the occasion.

    Pink for the ceremony, black for the reception, go somewhere fancy with your man another time for the gold (in the context of someone else's wedding, it's just too bridalish, even full on gold and not white.) Ditch the shawl though, make yourself sparkle instead. And you are gorgeous!
