I’ve officially flipped the switch from shopping for dainty white pieces as a bride, to searching for fun, colorful wedding guest outfits to break it down in at some 2024 weddings. Not going to lie, it’s a sweet relief to be on the other side- attending weddings this spring and summer. I am so beyond excited to see some good friends walk down the aisle this year! Woohoo! ❤️
When picking a dress to wear to a wedding, you of course want to keep in mind the suggested dress code. Or maybe it’s a mandatory dress code, like black tie. Definitely want to have that at top of mind when starting your search. Next up, where is this taking place? Will you be in your friends backyard, or a rooftop hotel in the city?
Rather than looking at this as an intimidating task, try to view this as something worth looking forward to!! How often are we really dressing up anymore nowadays? Not very often, since the pandemic! Think of attending a wedding as a beautiful reason to get dressed up, celebrate life, love, and people you likely go way back with (or maybe they are a new connection- just as sweet!). So, don’t be afraid to put in some effort, don your best, and be proud of your outfit. After all, you might be in some pictures the couple will show their future kids one day! 😉
If finding a dress to wear to your best friend’s, sister’s, coworker’s or even your old neighbors daughter’s wedding- is a daunting task for you… maybe these can help you out.
