What You Should Wear To Your Best Friend’s Summer Wedding
Summer weddings can be very romantic affairs especially if they are done outdoors. If your best friend is getting married this summer and you are elected to help the bride do the summer wedding preparations, try not to be too caught up in the summer wedding preparation and forget to buy yourself something fabulous to wear for the occasion. To help you choose what to wear for your best friends wedding, here are some pointers for you.
What To Wear As Maid Of Honor
Being the made of honor means that you get to stand near the bride so you must look your best for the part. Do not dress like the other bridesmaids. You must visually announce to the people who are attending the wedding that you are the maid of honor by dressing differently from the other girls in the bridal entourage. For instance, if the wedding colors are peach and gold, you may wear a golden gown while the other girls wear peach colored gowns. What if there is only one wedding color selected by the bride? If there is only one wedding color, you can still wear a dress of the same color but you need to style your dress differently and wear some distinctive accessories.
Is it alright for you to wear white like the bride? Although there are no rules that say that the maid of honor cannot wear white like the bride, as the maid of honor, you should not wear white at all. Always remember that this is your best friend’s summer wedding not yours so do not compete with the bride. You will have your turn to wear white when you get married.
What To Wear As Guest
If you live far away and you do not have time to perform some special roles during your best friend’s summer wedding, do not despair. You will still have a great time just being there and be a special guest on your best friend’s summer wedding. However, just because you are not part of the bridal entourage doesn’t mean that you can forget about looking great during your best friend’s summer wedding. To make your self look really pretty and cool during the wedding, buy one of those pretty pastel colored dresses for an outdoor or daytime wedding. Avoid dresses with long sleeves. Note that the summer heat could be quite relentless. Furthermore, avoid wearing heavy make up if you don’t want to end up melting under the sun.
