Proper Wedding Attire

Summer is the time for weddings. When you are invited to a wedding, one of the most difficult decisions to make is what to wear. These rules of etiquette will help you avoid common blunders.

First, make sure that consider the type of wedding you are attending. Is the wedding formal or informal? Will it take place during the day or at night? A short dress or casual suit is fine for a formal or an informal daytime wedding. Cocktail dress is appropriate for informal evening weddings as well as for semi-formal evening weddings. A formal evening wedding, ultra-formal wedding, black tie event, or white tie event will require a long gown, dressy cocktail dress, or formal suit.

Next, consider common rules of courtesy when it comes to dressing for a wedding. One of the biggest rules is not to wear white; this makes it look like you are competing with the bride. You should also avoid wearing black during the daytime. It is also a good idea to ask about the colors of the bridesmaid dresses and to avoid wearing those colors as well. You do not want to look like you are part of the wedding party.

Above all else, make sure that you dress appropriately. This means avoiding clothes that are too revealing or too casual. You should not wear sandals or flip flops unless it is a beach wedding. Always aim to appear well-groomed and pulled together.

Men should avoid wearing creative tuxedos or any tuxedo during a daytime wedding. A dark suit is a good bet for an evening wedding. Men should also be conservative in their dress, aiming for suits and ties unless otherwise specified.

These tips will help you avoid embarrassment when attending your next wedding. The goal is to dress respectfully in order to avoid making a scene.
