Fall wedding season has arrived, and we know you’re just as excited as we are to dress up and toast all the happy couples. Wearing the appropriate attire for each occasion is important to honor the bride and enjoy the celebrations to the fullest. We’ve curated four complete outfits for the week’s events in anticipation of the festivities. This guide will focus on ensembles for attending the bachelorette party, rehearsal dinner, wedding, and the day after brunch.
Bachelorette Party
Depending on the venue, dress codes can vary. Choose the right dress for what's in store for the evening. Cocktail length is fool-proof, and the more thrills, dress with more frills. A beautiful color in a fall-friendly shade – like fuchsia – is ideal for getting noticed without overshadowing the bride-to-be.
Style Tip: Gold-toned metallics complement vibrant hues and add visual interest to photographs in a sea of black and silver. Additionally, golden chain earrings and matching shiny heels are versatile investment pieces that can be worn on many other occasions throughout the season.
Rehearsal Dinner
The significance of the rehearsal dinner works to set the tone as a prelude to the wedding day. We recommend semi-formal attire that balances elegance and comfort, such as a stylish cocktail dress or a longer maxi length. A neutral color ensures you’ll have more flexibility to dress the outfit up or down as needed. A bit of shimmer with some pleating details adds understated glamour.
Style Tip: To make a statement, wear our chic python scarf tied at your neck and bold chrome heels to complete the look. Don’t forget that it’s likely to be chilly in the evening, so bring a coordinating jacket or a polished blazer that you can take off during dinner.
Wedding Ceremony
The wedding invitation will specify whether the dress code is black tie, formal, or semi-formal. It's important to dress according to the indicated preference. While it's essential to adhere to the specified dress code, our arsenal of wedding guest dresses will keep you strikingly on trend and covered for all venues.
If you are looking for a midi length that wows the crowd and works for all three, we can’t take our eyes off this gorgeous A-line with sexy peekaboo mesh. Showcasing a pop of decolletage and graduated floral embroidery, this is a must-have occasion dress. It’s sure to be a hit at any black-tie, formal, or semi-formal event.
Style Tip: Black heels and crystal drop earrings complement this style without overpowering it.
Day-After Brunch
A post-wedding brunch typically has a casual and friendly atmosphere where guests can unwind and reminisce about the moments they loved most. Sometimes, it’s charming to incorporate subtle nods to the wedding theme or colors into the outfit for a cohesive look- but know your crowd and venue.
Consider wearing a comfortable and stylish dress for the next day. A flowy maxi dress with a touch of bohemian whimsy is a chic and safe choice. We adore the exploded floral print and embellished border on our newest wrap silhouette.
Style Tip: A felt hat is perfect for the day after and works for outside or brunch indoors. We love the hint of glam that pearls and gems bring to this outfit. Paired with a dark-grounded maxi, you can’t go wrong with easy and stylish black boots.
Cheers to being the best-dressed guest!
