What NOT To Wear to a Wedding
Bridal Party Colors

While that pretty teal dress that you’ve been eyeing for the wedding may seem perfectly appropriate, we recommend that you do some research. Pull out the invitation and check out the color scheme, or give the bride a call and ask what color her party is wearing. Because, and we are speaking from experience, you do not want to show up wearing the same color as the bridesmaids! You’ll look like you are bitter that you weren’t selected, and in all of the photos, you’ll look like a bridesmaid. We promise, bad idea, even if it is a total accident!

Post a CommentI went to a Mid-West wedding a few years ago (2007) and in the back of my mind I figured conservative, probably almost everyone will be wearing black (formal affair). And I was right! Unfortunately, my Western culture begged me to wear color, so I did, and then I felt embarrassed! So find out the region you are going to and stick with their brand of fashion, and you won’t feel like a goof like I did!
No black or white at a wedding. The LBD is a classic, but mourning colors have no place at a wedding!!
I hate when people wear black to a a wedding…good advice
Yeah, no kidding…..no one should wear white to a wedding!
I had someone (a cousin) wear a black short, almost skanky dress with hot pink heels. To my other cousins wedding rehearsel her shirt said Do I make you look fat? And my other cousin is a big girl, I thought that was very inappropriate.
of course you dont wear white…you cant overshadow the bride!!
nice
I agree with ever tip!
I don’t see anything wrong with the black dress.
Nothing to revealing and short.
You know, I have no problem with people wearing black to weddings. I had several people wear black to mine. I didn’t think it was bad at all! Now, I did have one cousin wear white. Normally I would have agreed that this is a no-no, but she was giving us her beach house for a week for the honeymoon, so…honestly, she could have worn anything she wanted!
dont look like a ho at the wedding
lol hhaaha
The little black dress is so classic, why not wear it to the wedding?
I agree with the no jeans rule.
What’s better: flip flops or bare feet? (I prefer the latter, but don’t think it matters).
Certain people can wear pant suits.
No white = no brainer.
I love the dress in the middle
