How to Dress for a Wedding Party
Although knowing the dress code is important if you want to know how to dress for a wedding party, it’s not the only information to rely upon. This information is usually written on the wedding invitation.
If not, you can presume that it’s a casual or “come as you are” type of wedding celebration.

Type of Wedding Celebration
As mentioned earlier, the dress code is not the only criteria to decide on what to wear to a wedding.
In my opinion, the venue where the celebration is being held or the wedding theme can also give good insights on how the fellow guests will dress.
The following suggestions will help you choose the right outfit.
What Can You Wear?
If your invitation states: “You are Invited to Our Blue Jeans Theme Wedding”, then you can wear a clean cut jean and know you will fit in just fine.
Otherwise, weddings are usually a little dressier than what you’d wear on a regular family and friends gathering.
The wedding theme and venue is a good indicator on what you should wear. Here are some ideas to determine the type of attire suitable based on these aspects:
Themes
Casino Royal theme:
- Women: Gown or evening dress.
- Men: Tuxedo or formal suit and tie.
- Women: Cocktail dress, light colors, and fabrics.
- Men: Semi-formal attire (suit with or without a tie).
- Women: Long or short dress, dressy pants with a cardigan, etc.
- Men: Formal wear, tuxedo.

- Women: Short dress, dressy pants, and top.
- Men: Semi-formal (suit), collar shirt.
How to Dress for a Wedding Party Held Outdoor
In this specific case, you should take into account the weather factor. If it’s a summer or beach celebration than you will most likely need to cope with hot temperature.
Therefore your comfort is just as important and perhaps more than dressing according to the established code if any.

Choosing the right fabric can greatly improve your comfort. Cotton and linen are well known for their ability to keep the skin from becoming moist due to warm and humid temperatures.
Unfortunately, pure linen fabrics will wrinkle easily making your elegant outfit look deformed and neglected.
Choosing blends that include small amounts of synthetic fibers will help you get the best of both worlds.
Enjoy the Wedding Celebration!
