When you're considering wedding guest outfits, it can be a fine line trying to look striking without stealing the spotlight. Consider this your guide to what to wear to a wedding, no matter how big or small.
Whether you choose a feminine fit and flare shape or sophisticated shift, a dress is the most effortless option of all. It creates an instant wedding guest outfit - all you need is a few choice accessories and you're all set. Perfection.
While a mini dress can look sophisticated, it's worth considering what the wedding day holds. If you're sitting for long periods of time, it might not be the most comfortable option. A midi-length dress will look effortlessly elegant and feel good to wear from first toast to last dance.
Countryside setting? City ceremony? Beach wedding? Different destinations will probably call for a different dress code. For example, floaty floral silhouettes speak of nature while a structured co-ord exudes municipal sophistication.
Some religious ceremonies will require you to respectfully cover-up, so you might want to wear a dress with sleeves, drape a scarf around your shoulders or slip on a jacket when needed. There's also the matter of weather. You'll never regret layers for 'just in case'.
If a dress isn't your style, there are plenty of alternatives. A jumpsuit boasts the same instant ease when it comes to creating a look. While coloured suiting is perfectly wedding-appropriate - and can be styled for other occasions too.
Whether it's a bag that contains all your essentials or shoes you can walk in all day, trust us, you'll be thankful for taking a sensible approach. But you needn't compromise on style either. Think colour-matching block heels and wedge sandals.
