Wedding season is here, a time for celebration, but it can also be a time for stress when it comes to figuring out what to wear as a guest. Whether it's a beachside ceremony or a formal affair, dressing for a wedding can be tricky.
We're here to provide you with some tips on how to dress, the wedding guest trends we're expecting to see in 2023, and how you can make them work for you.
Tip one: Consider the dress code
Before you start planning your outfit, it's important to take note of the dress code specified on the invitation. If the dress code is not stated, you can usually gauge the level of formality based on the venue and time of day. A daytime wedding typically calls for lighter, more casual attire, while an evening wedding often requires a more formal feel.
Tip two: Choose the right fabric
The type of fabric your outfit is made from makes all the difference in how comfortable you are throughout the day. For warmer months, lightweight materials such as linen, cotton, or silk are great choices.
Tip three: Keep accessories simple
Accessories are a great way to add some personality to your outfit. A statement necklace or earrings can add some flair to a simple outfit, while a clutch or small purse is perfect for carrying essentials like lipstick or a phone.
The wedding guest looks we're coveting this season
One: Bold colours
In 2023, bold and bright colours are in. Don't be afraid to stand out with a pop of colour in your outfit. A marriage of bright pink and lime green are a winning combo in our eyes.
Pairing our Ganni Love Potion Dress with their Chunky Nolita Knot Heels plus our Ganni Nano Bag and a pair of simple Pernille Corydon Hoops hits the colourful nail on the head.
Two: Midi-length dresses
Midi-length dresses are a great option for wedding attire in 2023. They're versatile enough to work for both formal and casual weddings, and they're also a great way to show off a wonderful pair of shoes.
The straps on this season's Sessun Daligat Dress are divine, a gorgeous piece for a summer wedding. We're also loving the cut and flowy movement of the Gala Smocked Sessun Dress, simple and sophisticated and beautiful with a pair of statement heels.
Three: Floral prints
Floral prints are timeless and always on-trend for weddings. In 2023, look out for oversized floral prints in bright colours or delicate, dainty floral prints in pastel hues.
Stine Goya is the queen of florals, a sure fire winner for any style of wedding. Pair the Rania Floral Wrap Dress with a pretty headscarf from Becksondergaard for an uber feminine look. Or dress up the Stephanie Shoulder Blouse with some light, colour-blocked wide-legged pants and a pair of simple heels.
Four: Metallics and sparkles
Big time party vibes? Metallics, sequins and crystals are a great way to add some glam to your wedding outfit. Think golds, silvers, sparkling sequins and metallic threads.
The subtle metallic glimmer in the Stine Goya Jasmine Dress adds an elegant twist to the dress's puffed sleeves and oversized shape. Paired with the Nolita Knot Sandals and Paris Embellished Clutch this night will have you sparkling from the nuptials to the dance floor.
