Do’s and Don’ts for Her

• Don’t wear white because this color is for the bride only. There are plenty of other colors guests may select from

• Do opt for something feminine and appropriate. Clubwear, too sexy clothing are not good ideas for a wedding ceremony. If you ask yourself whether it’s appropriate or not, it probably isn’t.

• Don’t wear black or sequins during the daytime.

• Do take off gloves to eat or drink.

• Don’t worry about wearing the same colors as the bridesmaids or mothers. You can’t coordinate with everyone in the wedding party.

• Do be particular in selecting the outfit if the invitation doesn’t specify the formality of the event. Chose a pastel suit or a soft floral dress for daytime or a little black dress for evening, you’ll never be mistaken with these.

• Don’t wear opera-length gloves (to top of arm) with anything but sleeveless or strapless gowns.

Wedding Style for Him

• Informal Daytime: Dress shirt and trousers, a sports jacket.

• Informal Evening: Suit

• Semi-Formal Daytime: Suit

• Semi-Formal Evening: Dark suit

• Formal Daytime: Dark suit and tie

• Formal Evening: Tuxedo (if invitation says “black tie”) or dark suits if women wear short dresses.

• Ultra-formal Evening or White Tie: White tie, vest and shirt.

Do’s and Don’ts for Him

• Do wear a dark suit with a tie if the wedding is in the evening (after 6 p.m.), and doesn’t state “Black Tie.”

• Don’t wear a tuxedo for daytime or morning weddings, regardless of the formality of the event.

• Do be particular in selecting the outfit if the invitation doesn’t specify the formality of the event.

Chose a dark suit and conservative tie, you’ll never be mistaken with these.
