Tips for guest of the wedding........
You can usually find out whether the wedding is casual, semi-formal, formal, or white tie by the invitation. Save yourself some guesswork and check it first.
*Black tie: a formal style in men’s dress that includes black bow tie and a dinner jacket!
*white tie: a man’s full formal evening clothes, consisting of a black suit with a tail coat & a white bow tie.
Tip: If you're getting ready for an informal wedding in the morning, you can choose business attire instead.
If the wedding is held after 6 p.m., you can dress for evening in cocktail dresses and more formal gowns.
Tips and Tricks for Evening Weddings
Informal
Wear a cocktail, or "after five" dress. Look for one that ranges from below the knee to tea length.
Tea length is about two inches above the ankle.
Semi-Formal
Choose a conservative cocktail dress. Chiffon, silk, and satin are all good choices for semi-formal gowns.
Formal or Black Tie
Wear a dressy cocktail gown with a bit of a flounce, or a longer formal gown.
White Tie
Go all out with a long dress, gorgeous accessories, a stole or wrap, and stunning heels.
Tip: Remember that sleeveless gowns are still an option for the plus-size figure.
Weddings are the perfect time to incorporate wraps, shrugs, and lightweight shawls into your wardrobe.
Choose feminine, floaty styles for any wedding.
Stick to Classics
Wear never-fail accessories like pearls, drop earrings, and classic cuff bracelets.
Consider Your Options
Vary the level of formality depending on the type of wedding.
Try a feminine dress in a floral print for a casual "destination" or themed wedding.
Don't shy awa y from a touch of creativity. You just need to have a guideline of what's appropriate before you start planning, so review the invitation or ask other guests what they're going to wear.
Do Your Research
Find out the color scheme of the wedding if you're worried about coordinating your dress.
If you don't want to head to the reception wearing pink surrounded by red roses, ask around.
( White tie is more formal than the black tie!)
Tips and Tricks for Daytime Weddings
Informal
Try a suit or a dress that hits around the knees. Colours like peach, light green, and soft blues are good choices.
Semi-Formal

Choose a short dress or suit, and add a traditional touch with a hat and shoes.
Are you on a budget?
Then the Little Black Dress is for you. You'll have an excuse to buy a great dress for any wedding after 6 p.m. Try to punch up your black dress with interesting hair accessories, gorgeous shoes, or a stunning bag.
Think texture like embroidery and beading, not tons of color.
Just a Reminder: Avoid black during the day.
Keep your body type in mind when you are selecting your wedding guest attire. One-piece dresses will skim along the body and can make you look trim. If you would like to wear a suit, you'll find that ones with seams and shaping will give your figure more definition.
Keep a few things in mind when you are selecting attire for attending a wedding……..
Avoid White: It's the bride's turn to shine. Why not just choose another color to avoid potential drama!!!!
Stay Safe: If you really don't know what to wear, stick with something simple like a cool pastel dress for the daytime or a subdued cocktail dress for evening.
Last but not lest, find comfort in your personality style
