Being invited to a wedding is a huge honour and very exciting – that is until you turn your attention to what on earth you’re going to wear. It doesn’t matter whether you’re male or female, young or that bit older, it can be a very daunting prospect to find just the right outfit.
From waistcoats to fascinators, maxis to clutches, one thing you can be sure of, FP has it all.
Here are just some of the highlights and must-haves.
Silky satins
No-one wants to upstage the bride, but do you want to feel special, and silky fabric will definitely do that!
This wedding season, all the best dressed guests are wearing slinky numbers like this from Quiz.
If satin is your thing, but you’d prefer a little more coverage, then check this gorgeous pale pink maxi dress from Apricot at £40.
The long and short of it
When it comes to wearing your hemline long or short, anything goes, even a jumpsuit can hit the mark.
This coral mini dress from River Island is perfect for those who want to show off their pins, but for those much happier covering them up, check out this beautiful pink co-ord from Monsoon.
Loose linen or sharp dressed man
Relaxed, or fitted, two-piece or three, men have much more choice these days, they can even experiment with different colours.
Moss Bros has a whole range of suits dedicated to the wedding guest, including this fabulous emerald green linen one.
Or head to Slaters and try a pale blue tailored two piece.
Mum’s the word
For mums, aunties, godmums and grans, there are some gorgeous outfits to make you feel a million dollars.
Monsoon has a myriad of dresses to choose one like this extremely pretty floral print.
Teeny tots to tweenies
Weddings are family affairs and we mustn’t forget the smaller people when it comes to the perfect outfit.
Our little-uns are generally well-catered for, especially in places like Monsoon, M&S and Next.
But for those inbetweeny tweenies head to New Look where there are some very pretty dresses in just about every colour, including this summer’s colour buttermilk.
Fascinating headgear
Right, so you have the outfit, now you need a hat. Actually these days that’s not true, head gear used to be a must, but much less so now. But there are some very pretty hats and fascinators around like this one from Accessorize.
Diamonds and pearls
Weddings are the chance to get your sparkle on. Whether that’s hair clips, jewellery, shoes or a clutch bag just channel your inner glitz.
