Black Tie Optional Wedding
Is this dress appropriate for a black tie optional wedding in NJ?

Re: Black Tie Optional Wedding
I love you.
Yes, I think so... but NJ area weddings are pretty insane. If you feel great in it, that's all that matters! I'd wear it though.
ETA: I just reread what I wrote and it doesn't really make sense-- I meant it to say people have a wide array of attire at the weddings I've been to in NJ but a lot of them are very formal (even when it says BT optional). I love what you picked out though and would wear it myself.
I agree with Shuga and Tamzin.
Especially since you know how to accessorize and dress it up or down according to the occasion. So you'll be able to wear it again, even if Denny isn't wearing a tux!
I love the colour, too. Very elegant!
Yes, yes and YES! Agreed that it would look awesome on you too!
I am mildly crazy for Boden too, their stuff holds up really well and always looks awesome on!

Denny actually won't be wearing a tux. "Black tie optional" means "dark suit" according to the bride.
Sounds like you got it all figured out, but just wanted to chime in that you made a great pick and definitely love the beading.
Why the hell is it so hard for us to pick out what to wear to weddings? I did a fashion show for my DH last night and we argued about which of the two dresses would be more appropriate for the wedding. The bride says to wear a sun dress. DH has one idea of a sun dress and I'm slightly different (of course). So now I'm bringing two dresses and am going to have the groom's mom tell me which to wear for which event. In the end, it won't matter. But it is still frustrating.
