FAQ

• What is the best color to wear as a guest to a wedding?

  Yellow, pink, lilac, and green dresses are all great options to wear as a wedding guest. Dresses with patterns and floral designs also work well for the spring season—just be sure you aren't wearing the same color as the bride's bridal party, and of course, stay away from white!

• Can I wear black to a wedding?

  Yes, a black dress, jumpsuit, or suit is appropriate to wear to a wedding (especially for a black-tie wedding). However, we recommend dresses that have more color for the spring season.

• What accessories can I wear to a wedding?

  If your look is minimal, you should certainly dress it up with a statement necklace and earrings. However, if you're playing around with color and patterns, it might be best to opt for a piece of simple jewelry.
