What to Wear to a Wedding!

        Have you been invited to a wedding, but aren't quite sure what to wear?
The rules are different for different times of day, as well as different formalities. In general, you'll want to wear a dress and just about any color goes except for white. Long dresses are reserved for very formal weddings.  Here are some tips from Danielle of  David’s Bridal’s  and some tips on what type of dress to shop for. She’s included some dos and don’ts.   Get ready to look as good as the bride!  Informal Daytime: Short dress or suit (business attire OK for morning weddings)

 Informal Evening: Cocktail dress (which is any dressier dress -- for example, a little black dress not  full length.

Semi-Formal Daytime: Short dress or suit

Semi-formal Evening: Cocktail dress

  Ultra-formal or White Tie: Long gown, extra glitz (Costume Jewelry, faux diamonds, furs, etc.

Dos and Don'ts

If you have to ask if it's appropriate, it probably isn't. Do use good judgment if the invitation doesn't specify the formality of the event.
Don't wear white because it competes with the bride, unless you ask her first, as a courtesy. There are plenty of other colors available. This rule may seem outdated, but it's actually just good etiquette to not contend with the bride on her special day.
Anything too sparkly will make you look overdressed.  Don't wear black or sequins during the daytime.
Don't worry about wearing the same colors as the bridesmaids or mothers. You can't possibly coordinate with everyone in the wedding party.
Club wear: overtly sexy clothing (strapless, see-through, etc.) doesn't belong at a wedding. A pastel suit or soft floral dress for daytime or a little black dress for evening (after 6 p.m.) will take you almost anywhere.
Casual can mean a pretty sundress (like for a coastal or beach wedding) but rarely means something as sloppy as jeans or shorts.
