Before the wedding, the bride and groom decide on their own clothes, based on their own preferences, wedding style and location. But for guests who have received wedding invitations, a serious question arises - how to dress? After all, a wedding is a solemn, important event, so you need to pay enough attention to your appearance to look elegant and appropriate.
Instructions
Step 1
Study your wedding invitation carefully. Often wishes and recommendations for clothes are written on them. The dress code may vary depending on the venue and the style of the wedding. For example, it is now fashionable to arrange so-called "pirate weddings", which are celebrated on a ship or yacht. In this case, invitations are written with requests to dress in a pirate style: wear black, multi-colored or striped clothes, use appropriate accessories: blindfolds, bandanas, earrings.
Step 2
Find out the location of the celebration. For a restaurant, you need to choose formal clothes, and if the wedding takes place on the beach, you should not traditionally wear evening dresses and suits, high-heeled shoes. Loose and comfortable clothing will be more appropriate, but this does not mean that you can choose old shorts and a dirty T-shirt. In any case, you need to look beautiful.
Step 3
But, as a rule, weddings are arranged in the traditional style - in a festive atmosphere, in restaurants. In this case, you need to dress appropriately - men are advised to wear tuxedos, women - evening dresses and high-heeled shoes. But everything is not simple here, there are many rules that should not be broken. First and foremost, women should not wear white dresses. Even if you are sure that the bride will choose a different shade, it is better not to risk it, so as not to get confusion.
Step 4
Opinions differ about black dresses: it is believed that this is the color of mourning, which does not correspond to such a fun event, on the other hand, a little black dress, as stylists say, is always appropriate. If you do decide to wear a black outfit, use bright accessories to spice it up.
Step 5
It is not recommended to wear provocative, bright, open, as well as very expensive and chic clothes that will attract the attention of guests. At a wedding, all attention should be paid to the bride and groom. Therefore, exclude dresses with deep necklines, clothes that reveal the navel, very short skirts.
Step 6
Consider the time of year, especially if you are planning a walk in the park. No matter how beautiful your light summer dress with graceful shoes is, think about how you will walk along the snowy streets in such an outfit. It is very important to choose the right shoes for the celebration: women should not wear high-heeled shoes, as the wedding involves entertainment and dancing.
Step 7
It is usually easier for men to choose clothes for a wedding. A simple suit with trousers and a jacket of the same color will always be appropriate. Depending on the color of the suit, a shirt is selected - preferably not white. You don't need to wear a tie, but it will highlight the importance of the event to you. It is not recommended to wear jeans and bright shirts; sportswear is absolutely unacceptable.
