Fall weddings have something magical, enchanting, and soul-touching. Think of the perfect in-between weather - it's no longer freezing and dry like during winters or hot and humid like it is in summer. The weather is chilly.

As a guest invited to a fall wedding, you want the perfect outfit that blends in with the season without sacrificing a sense of style. However, the problem is one thing.

Finding the perfect fit for the big day is no easy task - you have to consider dozens of things, which can be pretty overwhelming. But don't worry. This post will walk you through everything you need to know to choose the best wedding guest dresses in 2021 - including some of the best examples you can choose from.

 

3 Guides to Choose Your Best Wedding Guest Attire

    1. The requested dressing code

    In most weddings, the couples usually want to set a theme. They want to set up the wedding mood by ensuring things are as formal or casual as they wish. Therefore, the dressing code of the wedding you're about to attend should be your first lead to choosing the best outfit

    Here are the popular wedding themes (dress code) that define what you'll wear as a guest. 

    • White Tie Wedding

    Seeing 'white tie' as the dress code in the invitation letter means wearing the most formal wedding guest attire - think of royal banquets or state dinners dressing codes. This might sound a bit extra for a wedding, but what other option do you have if that's what the engaged couple wants? Plus, you don't want to be the awkward guest at the event. 

    That said, what should you wear? 

    Full-length dresses are non-negotiable in a white-tie wedding. Here, no knee-length dresses. No cocktail dresses. A white tie ceremony demands the likes of a strictly formal, full-length A-line, ball, or sheath gowns. 

    Compliment the outfit with beautiful jewelry, lovely make-up, and an awe-inspiring hairstyle. Finish off with adorable sleek dress shoes to magnify the glamour. Also, you can go for the elbow-length white silk gloves if you like - they might be appropriate but not a must. 

    • A Black tie wedding

    A black-tie wedding reflects an evening occasion with a formal dressing code. But not strictly formal like in white tie. Here you can wear a formal gown of any length. You can go for the full-length gown or a formal cocktail dress that's less revealing but in rich fabric and tone. You can complement the black-tie dress with accessories like a necklace and matching earrings.

    • Casual dress code

    A casual fall wedding gives you plenty of outfit options, if not the freedom to wear anything you like. But that doesn't mean you jump into shorts, tennis shoes, or running gear. It doesn't mean you get into your club-intended attire and convince yourself you're going to a wedding. 

    Here's the thing. Wear smart casual wedding attire. Keep your outfit elegant and easygoing. For instance, you can opt for a stylish midi dress for a perfect casual outlook. Alternatively, go for an eye-catching midi-skirt or in-fashion cropped pants and pair each with an on-trend top. 

    For footwear, block heels, wedges, or sandals can help you paint an adorable impression with your casual wear. 

    2. Location and Time

    If the dress code isn't specified on the invitation card or letter, it's up to you to select a decent outfit. An outfit that radiates beauty and falls in line with the location and time. 

    Take a fall beach wedding, for example—the dressing code demands a relaxed outfit with light fabrics, colors, and prints. Also, maxi dresses are preferable to short dresses due to the windy conditions at the beach. More than that, the beach cancels any intent to wear high heels or stilettos - your footwear should be appropriate for walking on the sand. 

    Apart from location, time is also a critical consideration. If the fall wedding is expected to extend till late, wear something that can easily transition from day to night or carry something to cover up yourself (like a shawl), provided it'll get cold in the evening. 

    3. Stick to Some Basic Rules

    • Rule one: Don't upstage the bride

    Understandably, you want to dress to kill and attract as much attention as possible - just don't compete with the bride. 

    For instance, wearing a white prom dress or a maxi gown with a train may steal the people's attention to the bride, or even worse, they may confuse you for the bride. The best you can don't wear white garments unless it's part of the dress code for the fall wedding. 

    • Rule two: Don't wear anything too skimpy

     Avoid cutaway and plunging neckline dresses or see-through fabrics. In short, don't show too much skin. If you must wear such outfits, take caution because they tend to be sexually suggestive to some or may appear indecent to others. Don't pick low-cut outfits, and keep your high heels to the correct length.
