Dress code wedding: The best outfit tips for wedding guests-and what mistakes it should be avoided

In the Outfit election for a wedding, guests have many dress code styling cliffs to circulate: Of course, you definitely don't want to appear underdressed for celebration, on the other hand, nobody wants to steal the show (especially the bride!) Or otherwise negativedance the series.With the following tips you master every styling challenge for wedding guests:

Tip 1: Read the invitation correctly

Most of the time, the invitation already provides important information for choosing the right clothing for the wedding.If a special dress code is noted for guests, you should definitely stick to it - everything else is rude.We have put together the best known dress codes at weddings below in the text.If there is no dress code for the wedding, you are always on the safe side with an elegant dress (plus matching shoes).If you don't want to wear a dress, you can of course also choose a festive jumpsuit or an elegant suit.Or you just ask the bride and groom what they want from their guests.

Tip 2: Find out about the location

Important dress code information always provides the location of the wedding: a celebration in the castle including religious wedding, of course, requires a more festive wardrobe and thus has a different dress code than a wedding in the registry office followed by a party in the club's restaurant.

Tip 3: If in doubt, move around again

Moving is an option at a wedding, especially when there is a common dinner or a big party on the program in the evening.If you don't have an opportunity for great creation, you can also make your day outfit suitable for evening with a few simple tricks - e.g. by changing flat for high shoes or replacing bags and other accessories.

Tip 4: avoids too bright colors and prints

An unspoken dress code rule that every guest should take at a wedding should be avoided for too bright and attention.The bride and groom should be the focus of every wedding.The couple to steal the "show" is insensitive.Say: The best way to keep your fingers of clothes with super bright neon colors or extreme animal prints.With soft pastel tones, good mood colors or flower prints, on the other hand, you can do relatively little wrong.

Tip 5: likes to show skin - with style

Very short dress in combination with extremely deep cutouts are rarely seen on a conventional wedding.Especially with the official part of the wedding ceremony, it is usually a bit more covered.An oversized blazer that matches the look is a nice option and "defuses".

Tip 6: White and cream tones only wear in consultation with the bride

Even if many know this conventional wedding rule, here is our little reminder: the bride to steal the show at his own wedding, the deadly sin is among the wedding fats!Therefore, do not wear white or cream -colored clothes, jumpsuits or suits - unless the bride expressly gave its "go" for it.

Tip 7: Better to be “overdressed” as “underdressed”

Even if it should actually be a matter of course: extreme casual looks such as torn jeans, t-shirts, sneakers or rubber flip-flops do not belong to a wedding-even if no dress code is specified, or something like "informal" or"How you feel comfortable".Anyone who makes no trouble with their styling shows their contempt for the special occasion in which the bride and groom invested a lot of love, time and effort.
