Q: How Do You Match Wedding Attire To The Formality Of The Wedding?

Home

A: You should match your wedding attire accordingly by wearing formal wear at a formal fete and something more casual at a laid back celebration. For example, at a beach wedding, it’s typically acceptable for men to wear linen shirts or other lightweight fabrics along with khaki pants. At a formal wedding, the men would look best in a suit or tuxedo with tie or a bowtie.

For women attending a formal event, they should follow the instructions of the invitation or can always ask a member of the wedding party what would be most appropriate for the occasion. Women can wear anything from a formal ball gown or a cocktail dress to a tea-length sheath for Sunday brunch nuptials.
