Wedding Dress Codes, Love 'em or Leave 'em:
Without fail, you'll get that message from one of your wedding guests: "What should I wear to your wedding?" How you respond depends on your overall vision for the day. So here are some things to think about!
Are you having a small wedding? Small ceremonies increase the chance that everyone in attendance will be part of your wedding photos! This is an awesome opportunity to dress everyone in your wedding colors, and make some really beautiful pictures!
Do you have a bridal party? If so, do you want people to avoid matching with your bridesmaids?
Some cultures encourage each side of the family to wear a different color, making for some really fun photos
Is your wedding formal? Casual? You get to decide! If you want your guests to wear denim shorts and crocs, or a full on suit, as long as you ask, people are usually happy to oblige if they're able
Comfort over aesthetics? Sometimes, the deciding factor isn't how it looks, it's how it feels! One huge factor in dress is comfort! If you want your guests to focus on being comfortable, be sure to tell them that!
Have fun with it! Adding a cute example card to your invites is a fun way to make sure your guests know what you'd like them to wear.
If adding a dress code for your wedding isn't something that matters to you, that's completely okay too! Remember, your guests are coming to celebrate your love, and that's truly the most important thing.
