5 Best Dresses to Wear to a Summer Wedding as a Guest

Summer Wedding Season Is Coming

Summer may be the best season to go on a holiday, to bask in the Sun, and get a good tan. It is also a great time in the year to get married and why not, as the weather is absolutely fantastic for outdoor weddings around this time.

However, it is always better to book your wedding venue ahead of time. Most picture book outdoor locations and venues tend to be high in demand during this time and may cost you a little more than usual. By booking a location early, you can avoid paying over the odds.

If you are a guest at a wedding, then Summer-time is also the best period to attend weddings. But have you given a thought to the best wedding guest dresses for the Summer of 2020?

What You Should Know as a Wedding Guest

As a wedding guest there are a number of things you should know. That’s right! even wedding guests are expected to observe a certain etiquette. That being said, here are a few things you should know before you make a grand appearance at a family member or friend’s wedding.

Prior to the Wedding

  • Unless you have been told by the impending couple to bring along a guest to their wedding, it is best to go alone.
  • Always leave your kids at home. Unless of course they are a part of the wedding occasion.
  • Do some research on the location and venue ahead of time. Take a mental note of the time it would take to arrive at the venue.
  • Dress appropriately (more on attire below).
  • Unless you have been told to do so by the soon-to-be married couple, never wear a purely white attire to a wedding. The truth is, the only person allowed to adorn a completely white outfit at a traditional wedding ceremony is the bride. So if you do not want to be a wedding crasher, wear a colourful dress or another neutral colour.

On the Wedding Day

  • Avoid texting or calling the bride to be on the wedding day.
  • Make sure to celebrate with the couple. Do not sulk or shy away.
  • Avoid being preoccupied with other stuff like fiddling with your mobile phone.
  • Never go to a wedding without a card and gift. If the gift is quite large and cumbersome, you can have it delivered to the home of the couple.
  • Remember you are supposed to be at the wedding to show your support for the couple. Make sure you arrive at the venue on time and that means at least 25 minutes before the start of the wedding. Also, avoid arriving at the venue of the wedding too early.
  • Keep to the instructions. If the use of mobile phones, and cameras are not allowed at the wedding, please adhere to the instructions.
  • The wedding is all about the couple, so try to avoid the temptation of turning it into a family and friends reunion party.
  • Locations can be tricky sometimes. So if prior arrangements have been made for shuttle transportation to and from the venue, it is best to take advantage of it.

Now that you have been served with some tips for wedding guests before and during a wedding. You might be wondering what you should wear for the occasion.

Being Summer time, the only thing you may worry about is the possibility of rainfall. You should check out the weather forecast and bring along an umbrella if absolutely necessary.

When it comes to dresses to wear to a Summer wedding the key phrase is – Appropriate Dressing. The fact that a wedding holds in the Summer does not give you the license to dress inappropriately.
