Would you rather... have a guest show up wearing jeans or a white dress?

Let's face it, there's always someone who's going to be dressed inappropriately at a wedding! So which would you rather witness? Would you rather... have a guest show up wearing jeans or a white dress? Jeans are my formalwear! I didn't even realize this dress was white! Photo by The Grovers in...

    I would pick the white dress because no one can outshine a 15 ft train! And we are in a castle so jeans would look really bad.

    Jeans, but not because I want to be the only one wearing white. I figure i'm going to have to be all dolled up, and if I invite someone to my wedding I want them there in whatever they feel good in as long as they are clean

    Oh, I want them to be dressed up at least a little formal no jeans and I will be putting this in my Invitations.

    I actually anticipate a few guests will be in jeans but I live in the midwest. I can think of 2-5 possible guests that will be in jeans but their "nice" pair they wear to weddings and funerals.

    White dress if it is a really nice dress, if it is like a sundress it probably wouldn’t really bother me. Jeans won’t bother me since my groom and his groomsmen are wearing jeans to the ceremony. It’s more of a casual wedding and country wedding.

    I’d rather them wear jeans or a monkey suit to be honest! I don’t want anyone in white other than myself. Maybe im dramatic but I want all eyes to know I’m the bride and not in competition wirh any other white dress!

    Personally I would rather someone wear jeans, as long as they aren't torn up and at least have a nice shirt/blouse and some decent shoes.

    Jeans. Every time. I can understand jeans especially if with not a super formal wedding. Wearing a white dress to someone else's wedding is just rude ( unless the bride isn't wearing white in that case to each their own)

    It doesn't matter. If the jeans are dressy and worn in good taste that's fine.

    Most of our guests will probably be in jeans anyway

    I'd rather the jeans, as my dress is white and not very embellished to begin with.

    I would rather have someone show up in jeans. I'll most likely be wearing casual attire as well.

    I'm not really bothered about either. I guess jeans make more sense though, as we're having a very casual wedding.

    A white dress, hell, I'd rather have them wear a full on sparkly white ballgown than jeans. I have nothing against jeans, but I want a more formal gathering and jeans would be out of place. I truly don't care if somebody wears a white dress or upstages me at my wedding.
