With the rise of Pinterest-inspired weddings, Couples are getting extra creative with their decor, concepts, and reception themes, which could make finding the perfect wedding outfit quite the task. If you find yourself on the hunt for the perfect outfit to celebrate the nuptials of your nearest and dearest, keep reading for style tips from the fabulous Couture Team on how to style a wedding reception look that is equal parts classy, fun, and dancefloor ready!    

Summer Lovin' Style

For the classic beach wedding where the celebration of love meets a whole lot of fun in the sun, take full advantage of the theme to dress up your look with bright colors, short hems, and funky patterns. For this look, Sales consultant Alina Kulik chose to pair this Missoni Chevron dress, with this simple yet casually glamorous Gucci 1973 python crossbody. Sporting a cute and compact crossbody to match you wedding look allows you to keep the essential phone and lipgloss combo close by for easy access when ready to snap a pic with the newlyweds!    

An Evening Affair

If you find yourself to be the lucky attendee of an over the top evening wedding, we advise keeping the ensemble neutral,formal, and elegant. If looking to keep it classy without feeling confined to the "little black dress" look, the jumpsuit option is a great way to achieve that form-fitting evening style with a slightly more democratic fit. Our fabulous luxury fashion buyer Hayley DeBuck is seen here sporting her ideal evening wedding ensemble that features a stunning black off the shoulder V strap jumpsuit with a Louis Vuitton Malesherbes Alligator bag. While wearing red has always been seen as a wedding guest faux paux, incorporating a red accessory as your pop of color to compliment an all black look is always a stylish and safe bet!    

Spring Time Soiree

April showers bring....May weddings! For anyone preparing to attend a spring time wedding on the terrace where love is in the air, keep it simple and chic with textured pastels, neutrals, and did we mention FLORALS? Showcasing her spring-time wedding style, Couture inventory manger Tessa Jones is seen here incorporating a flowing floral midi dress with this gorgeous pastel blush Chanel Coco Curve bag . Seeing as though outdoor weddings typically present a more casual, relaxed vibe, cork wedges like these Kate Spade Tawny sandals are an effortless yet appropriate choice that allows you get through cocktail hour and the inescapable cha-cha slide dance party in style and comfort!    

THE Wedding Guest Dress

Whether it be evening or daytime, outdoor or indoor, or any theme imaginable, this dress is THE ultimate wedding guest dress. As seen here worn by Couture photographer Lydia Challenger, this stunning Angel Sanchez gown with an open back faux-pearl lined concept offers the perfect coral color, fit, and hem length without having to steal the shine of the glowing bride. If wanting to go completely purse-free, don't forget a complimenting hand held clutch bag like this Kathrine Baumann crystal clutch.
