Wedding Etiquette Questions: Ask the Etiquist

Is it alright to wear a long dress to an afternoon wedding?

Q. Is it alright to wear a long dress to a 3:00 PM wedding?

A. A full length gown is usually not appropriate at any but a very formal evening or black tie wedding.

However, if the dress in question is rather casual, such as a light cotton or linen at a summer wedding, the length might be just fine. If you're not sure if the dress is too formal or not, the safer action would be to opt for a shorter dress or suit.
