Choosing an outfit that will be worn to celebrate a couple’s special wedding day can be exciting but also overwhelming.
Etiquette
When attending a wedding, you need to be sure to look the part. Outfits should always be more sophisticated and stylish than you would wear on an average day.
Turning up in casual attire can make it seem like you made very little effort and can make you look out of place in photos. Slogan t-shirts, animal prints and denim are all a definite no-no.
Always opt for a more conservative look, leaving the plunging necklines or the revealing outfits for a less formal occasion. Sheer fabrics should also be avoided.
Shades of white or cream should be reserved solely for the bride. If these are your usual go-to colours, try a light pastel shade instead. Guests should be careful to not wear anything that takes the spotlight away from the bride, so sequins, sparkles or shades of vibrant red are all best avoided.
Think carefully about shoes. Flip-flops and trainers are a definite no, but you should also ensure that any heels are comfortable enough to wear for a long period of time.
