Wedding & Bridal Beauty Tips
Always Avoid White
While there are many things you can certainly
wear to a wedding, the easiest place to begin might be what you should
never wear to a day or nighttime wedding. Most importantly, never wear
white to a wedding. Proper wedding etiquette states only the bride
should be in white on her wedding day. Of course, if the bride arranges
for her groom to wear a white tie and tuxedo there is no fashion taboo
being committed. While this may be a cultural fashion rule with a rich
tradition and history there’s always at least one guest who pushes the
limits and shows up in white or a similar color like ivory. Take our
advice and don’t be that guest!
Black Is An Easy Choice
If the invite isn’t clear about the dress code
for the nighttime wedding clothing expectations, you can always play
it safe with a Little Black Dress. While it may seem like a boring
choice, it’s extremely easy to make a black dress work in casual or
formal situations. Add formal jewelry to your dress in case the attire
is formal that can easily be removed and slipped into your purse if you
arrive to see others wearing much less formal attire. Pair a black
dress with a pair of simple black heels and no matter what the dress
code may be, you’ll look as if you fit in perfectly.
Think About The Season
When dressing for a nighttime wedding it’s
also important to think about the weather. While you may long to wear
your strapless black dress, if the weather is chilly you’ll need to
remember to bring a wrap along. After all, chances are a nighttime
wedding’s temperatures will be cooler than a day wedding. This is true
for any time of year.
Pant Suits Are A Possibility
Many women don’t feel comfortable wearing
skirts or dresses to any event, regardless of whether it’s a wedding or
not. While most pant suits are too casual for a nighttime wedding,
some wedding attire designers are finally creating beautiful pant suits
suitable for wedding wear. Be sure you aren’t reaching in the closet
for your favorite office pant suit, however. Look for a pant suit with
sequins or beading around the top jacket to help you fit in whether the
event is casual or more formal.
Nighttime wedding clothing options might
not be limitless but there are many options to think about. From your
Little Black Dress to a dressy pant suit, you definitely have choices
to make. Think about using accessories to help you quickly dress up or
dress down an outfit, even after you’ve arrived to the wedding
ceremony. Of course, if you want to quickly figure out what the bride
would love to see her guests wearing you can always make a quick phone
call and ask her yourself!
