My brother has asked me to be the God mother of his new baby girl and of course I said yes. However, she is being baptised the last sunday in march and I have no clue on what to wear. I got some advice and tips from my friend, but I cant seem to find anything anywhere. However, I did happen to browse on Dillards' website and found this really cute sun dress. It is on the dressy side, but it is also semi casual looking. But I was telling my friend about it and she asked me what the color of the dress is, and I told her it is white with peachy colored floral on it. She told me that sometimes you are not allowed to wear white to a baptismal. Is that true or is white okay? Technically the dress isnt only white. But I am just asking to be sure.
What do you think? Is white okay to wear to a baptismal or should I keep looking and find something else? What color would you suggest be okay to wear if not white?

like I said, the dress is not all white. The color of the dress is actually white and a cantalope peachy color. And the floral decoration is all over the dress which gives it this pinkish color. It is very weird but kinda cute. I even asked the mother (my sister in law) what she is going to be wearing and she said she is wearing black slacks and a nice shirt. But I dont want to be like everyone else. And I would feel more comfortable wearing a dress inside a church anyways.
And the dress is right at the knee, so it isnt too short or too long.

I checked with my grandmother and she said that white is allowed at the baptism.

I was just about to suggest white. I'm not quite sure if that isn't allowed. I recently attended a baptism for a friend's baby. They dressed the baby in a white garment. Again, I'm not sure if white isn't allowed at a baptism but I would suggest something with bright colors. Like, a blue or a pink or even yellow.

I been to many baptisms and I never heard of a color regulation so any color should be fine but one thing I have heard was some woman wear there dresses with very low cuts and very high splits that is the only thing I would be mindful of

I dont think theres a dress code for a Baptism. a sun dress is perfect. a short dress would be the only inapproriete thing to wear. go for the sun dress! Good luck

ummm....... i think taht u should wear a cute pant suit ..... but remeber 2 wear only fitted ones caz if it iz lose... then it will look awful!!!!!!
if u r keen on wearing a dress..... i suggest a cream colour so that u don't accidental violate teh dress code....... also a knee lenght with metallic high heeled sandals and a cute clutch...... i would reccomend a different dress caz it might b a little bit tooo summery for this kinda event.....
Stay Gorgeous,

I would not wear a pure white dress, but what you have described sounds fine.

you can wear anything.. there's no color-restriction.. and white would be a very good choice! just wear something semi-casual..

Don't wear white when it gets wet it will turn clear when it gets wet try something dark and nice yet not fancy!!!!!!
Hope this helps you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
