What to Wear to a Fall Wedding
Fall weddings are ever-increasing in popularity, but what should you wear if you’re invited to many? Check out this advice to help you decide what to wear to a fall wedding.
Fall is such a popular time of the year for having a wedding. You may find yourself getting invited to several weddings during the fall season, which could make it even more challenging to decide what to wear to each celebration. When choosing your wedding outfit, there are so many different factors to consider. The formality of the event, the weather, the location, and more can influence your choice. But you can also look at each of these factors as clues to help you determine what to wear to a wedding in any season!

KEEP FORMALITY IN MIND
When deciding what to wear to a fall wedding, you’ll want to start by making note of the formality of the event. For a black-tie wedding, you could simply wear a floor-length gown. If the wedding is more of a laid-back or casual atmosphere, you would look overdressed in something so formal. Keep an eye out for style notes in the invitation or on the couple’s wedding website.
KEEP THE WEATHER IN MIND
You’ll also obviously want to consider the weather. Make sure you wear something that will keep you feeling comfortable without sacrificing style. Fall weather can vary in temperature or rainfall, so keep inclement weather in mind. If you’re a guest at a fall wedding in an area that is known for being rainy or cold, the wedding will likely take place indoors. Be sure to consider the climate when deciding what to wear to a fall wedding.
KEEP ACCESSORIES IN MIND
In any season, choosing the right accessories will help complete your look and keep you comfortable. If you need to add a sweater, shawl, or jacket for extra warmth– don’t hesitate to do so. You should also take care to pick appropriate footwear depending on the wedding venue. If you have to navigate the lawn of an outdoor wedding, you won’t want to wear stilettos but may opt for a more stable wedge style or flats instead. Selecting proper accessories will ensure your comfort no matter the season!
Colors to Wear to a Fall Wedding
Another thing to consider when choosing what to wear to a fall wedding is the color palette. Often, couples will incorporate their color scheme into their wedding invitations so be sure to look closely for clues.
