WHERE TO WEAR?
Outdoor Events
Vineyard Wedding
Capture the natural elegance and romance of sweeping vineyard views with a flowing, floor-length gown in rich, bold hues like burgundy or emerald. Choose delicate lace details or soft silk fabrics that transition from early evening vowel exchanges to moonlit cork pops.
Garden Wedding
Garden nuptials are an opportunity to let your style bloom by wearing floral prints, tea-length dresses, and kitten heels. Choose a dress that transitions seamlessly from daytime ceremonies to evening receptions to after-parties by picking dance-all-night heels and a chill chaser.
Beach Wedding
Lightweight fabrics, vibrant prints, and of-the-moment accessories make a splash, looking both fresh and effortless. Opt for swept-back hair to counter sea breezes and draw attention to statement earrings and a necklace.
Match the Venue & Theme
Rustic Wedding
From quaint mountainside ceremonies to glamorous ranch retreats, reach for earthy tones and textures that blend naturally with the countryside setting. Choose flowy dresses in warm shades and accessorize with delicate floral headpieces or simple pearl earrings to complement the picturesque wedding ambiance.
Casual Wedding
When it comes to casual weddings, the bride and groom strive to create an environment of utmost ease. Match the ambiance with an outfit of simplicity and effortlessness, like a silk midi-dress and flats or light sundress paired with wedges. Minimalist jewelry and a relaxed hairstyle will complete your chic yet casual look.
Destination Wedding
For a tropical destination wedding, embrace the vibrant and relaxed vibe with a breezy, colorful dress and open-toed sandals. Lightweight fabrics like linen or chiffon will keep you cool, while bold accessories and a wide-brimmed hat can add a touch of vacation glamour. For colder climes, dress accordingly in a long-sleeve gown or go strapless and add a faux-fur capelet or jacket for warmth.

The Perfect Seasonal Palette
Fall Colors
Base your color choices on fall foliage, incorporating burnt orange, marigold, and deep fiery red into your look. Longer sleeves and hems are more appropriate to the season, as are close-toed shoes and leather or suede handbags.
Winter Colors
Faux-fur trim, rich velvet, and crystal brooches reminiscent of a snowflake are all exceptional options for witnessing vow exchanges in cold climes. Debut delicately-heeled boots embellished with faux mink or crystals, a wool capelet, and an architectural leather handbag.
Spring Colors
Embrace soft shades of blush, lavender, mint, and sky blue to capture the essence of the season. These delicate colors evoke feelings of renewal and promise, perfect for springtime weddings and celebrations.
Summer Colors
Think of warm and inviting shades reminiscent of sun-kissed days and balmy nights. Dive into coral, turquoise, lemon, or colorful patterns to reflect the vibrant energy of the season. These cheerful hues bring a sense of joy and optimism, ideal for beach nuptials and outdoor parties.
Tried & True Wedding Guest Attire
A dress that showcases superior craftsmanship never fails to impress and can be worn to many events, making it the jewel of your wardrobe. While it’s important to consider the venue and theme when choosing your outfit, a personal touch and artful details are what create true style.
How to Add the Finishing Touches
When colder seasons approach, an attendee’s look requires new stylish ways to keep warm. A luxurious fur shawl, crystal-embellished jacket, or long silk gloves are imperatives in being both fashionable and functional.
Evening Jackets
For those who wish to stay warm during the ceremony but might get a little too warm later on the dance floor, opt for a jacket to easily take on and off. Accentuate the waist with a cropped satin jacket, go for bold with a matching blazer and pants set, or stay extra toasty with a full-length coat.
Scarves & Shawls
For an effortlessly chic look, drape a refined cashmere shawl over your shoulders or stylishly knot a silk scarf around your neck, adding warmth and sophistication without sacrificing style.
Accessories
No wedding guest look is complete without the perfect accessories. From stunning diamond earrings to eye-catching beaded clutches, a sparkling statement piece can add a little (or a lot) of drama to your ensemble.
Here Comes The Bride
For all of the events leading up to your big day, there’s a flawless look that aligns with your wedding vision. Whether your idea of the perfect rehearsal dinner is a beach-side clam bake or a formal banquet at a private venue, a range of casual-to-formal dresses exists to bring your mental picture to life. However, the most important dress of all is the one you’ll wear on your wedding day, so dream big! Choose from ethereal princess styles, frothy chiffon creations, sleek, curve-hugging silhouettes, and others.
Mothers Of The Bride And Groom
This day, all eyes are on you, too! So find a look that radiates both pride and polish—be it a bedazzled bodice with a ball skirt, a sequined taffeta suit, or a caped column gown.
