Daytime Wedding Guest DressesFinding the right dress to wear to a wedding doesn't have to be tricky. You can begin by looking at the dress code for the level of formality. You can also find your ideal dress based on when the ceremony will take place. In general, daytime weddings are less formal, which means you can wear short dresses like a cocktail dress, sheath dress, or a fun jumpsuit. Opt for one-shoulder or strapless options during the warmer months. Explore dressy separates like a cold-shoulder blouse or dress pants. | Evening Wedding Guest DressesFor a more formal wedding, explore full-length gowns with sleeveless designs or embellishments at the waist. Celebrate in style with a flattering wrap dress or look elegant in a long satin dress. Explore midi, maxi, and strapless dresses from the brands you love like Simply Vera Vera Wang and Apt.9. And of course, don't forget the shoes and fashion jewelry needed to elevate your look to new heights. Choose from a stylish pair of sandals, women's heels, or flats. |
Wedding Guest Dress Colors to Avoid
When it comes to dressing up for a wedding, you'll likely begin searching for endless bold patterns and colors or more subtle neutral looks. But in recent years, wedding guest etiquette has changed - including colors that you shouldn't wear. In short, you'll want to avoid anything that could potentially upstage the bride on her special day. When figuring out what to wear to a wedding here are a few colors you should think twice about before donning:
- White/Ivory - If there is one color that you should absolutely avoid, it's a white dress. The majority of brides wear white dresses to their wedding, so the bride must be able to stand out at her wedding - and yes, even if your dress is ivory or off-white. Basically, try to stay away from any color or pattern that could be construed as white or ivory.
- Bridal Party Colors - It can be awkward blending in with the bridesmaids if you're not a part of the wedding party. If you're unable to get a heads-up on what color they will be wearing, one of the best ways to find out the bridal party color is to look at the wedding invitations. For example, if the invitations have mint green accents, they will likely be wearing some variation of mint green.
- Bright Colors/Patterns - It's important to try to blend in with everyone else. Otherwise, bright colors and patterns like sparkly metallic and shimmery dresses can be very distracting.
Choose These Colors Instead
Choose a dress with earth tones or a pastel color palette such as pink, light purple, or a pale blue. Not only do they look great on any skin tone but they're soft, warm colors that look flattering without taking away the focus on the bride. Additional fresh colors and patterns include:
- Seasonal-appropriate colors
- Blue dresses
- Yellow dresses
- Floral dresses
- Stripe wedding guest dresses
