dresses for weddings: KAREN MILLEN 2
Karen Millen: A short shift dress with floral pattern looks great with heels or flat sandals. Down from £140 to £95 (Buy) Photograph: karenmillen.com
dresses for weddings: TOPSHOP
Topshop: Floaty and feminine may not be everyone's cup of tea, but the no-nonsense cut of this Topshop dress stops it from being too girly. Good with pastel heels too. £50 (Buy)

dresses for weddings: VAN MILBERT
Vera Moda: Wearing anything that bares a resemblance to white is tricky for obvious reasons, but it's all about how you accessorise. So maybe leave the lace veil at home, but do wear with bright colours or black patent shoes. The black v-neck on this dress serves the same purpose. £24 (Buy)

dresses for weddings: WHISTLES
Whistles: While we're on the subject of how pale you can go with your colours, yellow pattern over cream fabric serves the same function as a flash of colour. The model's coral nails are a great touch. £150 (Buy)

dresses for weddings: COAST 2
Coast: Can you wear black to a wedding? The short answer is yes- be sure not to wear black shoes and you're fine. Big, bold jewellery in big, bold colours always helps. £95 (Buy)

Wedding dresses: Hobbs dress
Hobbs: With its light balance of blue and yellow roses and its pure silk material, there's something incredibly delicate about this dress. But shift dresses also have that veneer of formality which prevents it from being too twee. We're a little bit in love. Down from £149 to £110 (Buy) Photograph: hobbs.com
dresses for weddings: WAREHOUSE
Warehouse: Navy is always a good bet for weddings, especially teamed with cream heels and "pearls". We love the subtlety of this wrap dress. £30 (Buy)
