why do you have to wear heels if the dress is floor length? if it’s touching the floor nobody will see my shoes anyway so can’t i just wear something comfortable on my feet especially if i’m gonna be dancing at the wedding?
I got married at 10 am with a lunchtime reception and had no clue how to say ‘no jeans’ and ‘appropriate because I have super religious relatives’ and was fielding a lot of calls
Small question: is it disrespectful for a female guest to wear a suit/tux to a wedding? It honestly seems so much easier and cheaper then getting a dress and stressing if your outshining the bride
Very obvious yall did not watch the linked vid w more info 🤦♀️
I’m going to a destination wedding in Jamaica at the end of this month😬 the dress code on the website just said formal, I’m planning on wearing an ankle length pink silk (I think) dress with black lace floral designs but after watching this I’m worried I need a new dress🥲
I’m still confused with beach formal, is it more like a cocktail with longer length dresses?
Cuz linen sounds like a great option
Okay!! So it’s Formal/Black tie would a floor length black dress with open back, with ruching on the butt? Is that appropriate?
I am going to a black tie wedding: the invitation says dress like you are going to a movie premiere.
Why would it not be appropriate to ask the couple for wardrobe clarification if they sent the dress code. 🤔
Maybe I’m the outlier, but I’ve never had friends who would have a strict dress code for their wedding and know the difference. Don’t think I’d ever want to either.
Can you do creative black tie
My uncle in law literally wore cargo shorts to our wedding 🫠
I've a wedding coming up where the dresscode is "summer chique". Would that be similar to semi-formal, or perhaps cocktail?
What would I call it if I want people to dress like they’re going to a formal tea party or perhaps the derby 😂
Can you elaborate a bit more on the formality of different materials? I was surprised to see that a linen dress would fall under the cocktail category.
Ive never been to a wedding with a specific dress code or anything – I’ve always just worn jeans and a t shirt, then again I was just a teenager and they were Mexican parties where jeans and boots are basically formal wear anyway. All this to say that this is very informative!!
This video is SO helpful! Going to a wedding in a week and still haven’t got my dress…
Is it appropriate to wear something a little more “formal” to a semi-formal event? I’m going to an indoor/outdoor wedding but it’s in the evening and the venue is giving me more formal vibes. I’m not very close to the couple and don’t want to show up underdressed, but also not overdressed.
I’ve only ever been to formal and casual weddings and I am so confused 😩
