You are invited to a wedding and you’re probably thinking what to wear to a fall wedding. Most of the time, dresses to wear to fall wedding as a guest are the most difficult to decide on because the unexpected weather during the season makes you torn between wearing warmer clothes or a much lighter clothing.

Choosing the right fall wedding dresses is very important because you would not want to upset the bride by being too casual and you also do not want to create too much attention towards you that would upstage the most important woman during the event—the bride.

If you are looking for the right dresses to wear to a fall wedding, the following are the simple tips to guide you on what to wear for a fall wedding:

Check the Color Motif

Make sure to dress up in shades not similar to what the bridesmaids are wearing so you will not look like a member of the wedding entourage and not stand out among the crowd. The least thing that you can do is to wear something very bright in contrast with the motif because this will draw attention to you. It is also good to use fall colors such as turquoise, purple, maroon, marigold and dark green.  But please, don’t wear brown as it could look very sad during a happy wedding event.

Bring a shawl

You would not want to use coats and boots to a fall wedding just because the fall season is very cold. In this line, you may bring a shawl to make you warm during the evening party.

Never wear white ivory or off-white

Unless you are the bride, never wear these shades because you would look like the bride or the mother of the bride. Even if the bride does not wear these colors on her big day, you cannot wear these colors because you might be mistaken to be the bride-to-be.

Use a printed dress with white instead of using a plain white, cream or ivory dress

Dress to Impress

Regardless if the wedding is not a formal one, never use jeans, shorts, too short skirts, plunging tops and too tight clothes. Fall weddings are not club parties so you must dress appropriately.

Aside from your dress, never forget to accessorize and use the right shoes

Dressing appropriately to a fall wedding allows you to show some respect to the bride and groom so make sure to wear appropriate clothes and look comfortable in them.
