Selecting evening dresses

I have been invited to attend my friend's wedding dinner which is just less than three months away. Well, we've been friends for almost eight years and I am very happy for her! But, I'm clueless as to what I should wear because all the evening dresses hanging in my closet are either black or white. For sure I do not want to upstage the bride by wearing white. Even though wearing white to a wedding is no longer a faux pas, but I would stay away from it anyway. Oh, definitely no black, again. If nothing fits the bill, I would have to purchase a dress; one that makes me looked as fabulous as possible without taking away from the beauty of the bride. LOL. Before I head out to the store to sort through hundreds of dresses, it's probably a good idea to start sifting through some styles of dresses.

What do you think of these dresses?
