Brides: How many of you wore white to your Rehearsal Dinner?

I’m seriously struggling what to wear to my Rehearsal Dinner, which is next Friday now…

I wanted to wear white, but I can’t for the life of me find anything in-store that’s white and nice. I could order online, but fear nothing will fit right (I’m 5’9 and midsized, US 8/10).

I own a couple long dresses I could wear, but they aren’t white. My mom thinks I should wear a jewel toned (navy, forest green) dress because I have red hair and pale skin, but I sorta want to wear white. This is like one of the few times I would wear white since it’s not a color I typically choose and I’m the bride.

So my question: Did you wear white to your Rehearsal Dinner, or another color? Why or why not?
