If you have been entrusted with the honorable duty of being a witness at a friend's wedding, you should prepare for this event in advance. And you need to find out not only about what, according to tradition, this role is, but also think over your appearance, because the attention of guests will be riveted not only to the bride and groom, but also to those who will attest their happiness in the book of civil status …
Instructions
Step 1
Ideally, your outfit should harmoniously complement the bride's wedding dress, but by no means be more expensive and solemn. It makes sense to consult with the bride in advance and consider the style and color of her wedding dress.
Step 2
Avoid white dresses or very light pastel colors. If the material is monochromatic, then choose it a few shades darker than that of your girlfriend who is getting married. But it shouldn't be too dark either, because a wedding is a joyous day. In wedding photos, your outfits should not merge. If your dress is also very light, then complement it with bright contrasting accessories, jewelry, so that the guests do not have a question - which of you two is the bride.
Step 3
The choice of color depends not only on how well it suits you. On a spring day, next to the bride, you will look harmoniously in a light green, pink, light gray outfit. In autumn, olive, green, orange and golden tones are good. In summer, a multi-colored dress or a dress with floral prints is appropriate. Consider the seasonal factor when choosing a color.
Step 4
You should not wear a provocative dress with a large neckline or too short for a wedding, so as not to distract the guests' attention from the bride. Fluffy skirts and an abundance of ruffles will also be inappropriate. You don't have to look vulgar. An elegant tight-fitting dress will perfectly match the formal attire of the bride.
Step 5
If your friend's wedding is not the first, then you can dress more strictly as a witness at the wedding - a trouser suit or a vest with a skirt. But the outfit should not be too formal - emphasize the solemnity of the moment with beautiful accessories, a handbag. Do not add a lot of jewelry to it - a modest set of earrings, pendants and rings is enough. Be guided by a sense of proportion.
