Help: Which dress to wear for a wedding?

[slickskin]

I'm attending a wedding next month; cocktail attire is required. Do we like any of these dresses? Please rank from best to worst. I'm also open to suggestions, as long as the dress costs <$200. Thank you!

I'd say the first or the third. I really like them all, but the second seems a little matronly, and I'm just not feeling the last. The order would be:
1. First dress
2. Third dress
3. Fourth dress
4. Second dress
Hope this helped!

I would second that!

btw, here are some cute dresses I found:

Basic black...you'll wear it forever $175 from saks.com

This one's adorable, but slightly out of your price range $215 from neimanmarcus.com

Just barely out of your price range (eek! i'm bad at this) $215 from neimanmarcus.com

^^^I agree!
People tend to wear their little black dress for evening wedding . Lighter color for sure will make you stand out from the crowd.

I knew I could count on you all! Thank you for your opinions and suggestions. I'm trying to stay away from black, if at all possible. I love these:

Too bad it's black!

I also love the Macy's picks. Thanks passerby!

I will look some more and then decide.
