What to Wear to the Next Wedding as a Guest?


Weddings are special for everyone, be it the bride and groom tying the knot, or friends and family rejoicing and having a great time. From the food, music, dance, and rituals to the beautiful wedding dresses, everything comes together to make lifelong memories. Thankfully, when you have a wedding to attend as a guest, your planning part goes as far as the attire you want to wear and the gift you wish to hand over.

Having said that, choosing the perfect wedding dress for every event at weddings can be a daunting task. So, if you’ve been stuck in the dilemma of what to wear at the next wedding on your calendar, here are a few tips to sort it out.


  • The Theme

    If a wedding invitation mentions a theme all the guests need to follow, half of your dilemma ends right there. Since you already know a dress code or a specific color or style to follow, it's easier to decide your look. Just check what you already have in your wardrobe & shop for what you need.

    If it’s a formal black-tie wedding event, men can go for well-paired suits and women can go for a long party gown. If there are specific colors to the theme, and you’re close to the bride and groom, match the colors of your outfit to the theme. If you’re attending an Asian Islamic or Indian wedding, you can bring in a little traditional touch by experimenting with a sherwani for evening events and a kurta-pajama with a half jacket for daytime events. Women have an array of options for wedding dresses–Kurti sets, salwar suits, a long skirt with a silk shirt blouse, and much more just make sure you align it with the said theme.

  • The Season

    Of course, the season should influence the kind of fabrics and colors you choose for the wedding. Winter weddings call for deeper colors, and silky, shining fabrics. During summers, go for lighter colors and softer, breathable fabrics. Wearing suits and jackets for a winter wedding adds a touch of class and warmth to men’s wedding attire. While wedding dress ideas for women can range from velvet lehengas to long gowns with intricate embroidery or flowery embellishments.

  • The Right Combinations

    When it comes to completing a party look for wedding events, make sure your accessories are well coordinated with the dress you choose. Although weddings are a good time to flaunt your expensive jewelry, you must avoid going overboard with the bling. Choose your wedding event jewelry based on hairdo, attire, & makeup to achieve that perfect look. Men can wear a great combination of classy formal shoes, a contrasting pocket square, and a watch to complete their look. A little shine of an embellished brooch or a tie-pin can take the whole look up a notch.

  • The Fit

    A little loose on the sides, a little too deep at the neckline, somewhat long, or an inch tight on the sleeves - no clothing looks good if it’s not the right fit. For the long events at weddings, one must always have the right comfortable fit. After all, you don’t want to keep worrying about your clothes and miss out on the fun when everybody around is making the most of it. Plan your wedding outfits in advance and get alterations done in time. Make sure it fits you just right. Experiment with a different look only when you’re sure you can pull it off with confidence.

  • The Trend

    Every season, designers come up with new wedding trends in designs and fabrics for both men and women. Wedding collections include clothes for everyone from the bride and groom to their families, friends, and kids. Browse through the latest fashion trends and try them on. If a certain new collection works for you, just go ahead with it. The other option is to choose certain trending accessories and pair them with the favorites from your wardrobe. Checking out online fashion stores to check out the new collections is usually a safe option to get an idea and probably steal a deal if you come across one. You can always go for something you like but is probably not trending at that point. It's always good to stay a cut above the rest. Isn’t it!

  • The ‘No dress Code’ Code

    As crazy as it may sound, no dress code weddings too have a code. How? Well, weddings are social gatherings, they are not private unless specified by your hosts. The code to follow in such a case is to dress gracefully and look sharp. Don’t go too casual. If you’re not fond of wearing traditional formal wedding clothing just try creating a simple look without too many layers of clothing or accessories. Keep it simple yet classy.

  • The Curve that Completes Your Look

    You can go for the latest wedding trends, flaunt the most expensive diamonds, and walk in the most stylish pair of shoes, yet look incomplete without that smile. So, don’t forget to wear it. No look is ever complete if you don’t have a pleasant smile on your face. In fact, a smile can make you look stunning regardless of what you are wearing. Show off your elegant wedding dresses and accessories with an even brighter smile and you are sure to turn heads.


Plan and curate your unique wedding look for each event, keep a few backups (just in case) and enjoy the festivities thoroughly. The memories you make will stay in pictures forever. Try to make them even fonder by staying in the moment. And of course, with these quick wedding dressing tips, go out there and make a statement every time.
