A Guest’s Guide to Dressing for a Destination Wedding

Here comes the bride—in a totally new location! Destination weddings make it easy for happy couples to have the perfect weather and background for their special days. A travel agency can help you get the tickets to your loved one’s destination wedding, but these tips can help you figure out what to pack:
 
Think About the Location
It is always important to consider the location when packing for any type of trip, including the destination wedding of a loved one. Many couples choose tropical locations for their destination weddings to get away from the colder weather they experience at home. If your loved one’s wedding will be held in a tropical locale, be sure to bring clothing that will keep you comfortable without making you feel too warm.
 
Look to the Invitation for Clues
If you are having trouble figuring out what to wear to the wedding and on the rest of the trip, look to the wedding invitation for clues. Brides- and grooms-to-be typically set the mood for their weddings with their invitations. Look for specific words such as formal or casual to help you choose an appropriate ensemble.
 
Ask Questions
Nobody wants to be overdressed or underdressed for a wedding! That is why it is important to know what the bride and groom want for their big day. If you cannot figure out how to pack on your own, try asking the best man or maid of honor for advice regarding what to pack. These two bridal party members will know what will work and what won’t work for the special event.
 
Keep it Simple
You do not want to deal with a large suitcase filled to the brim! It is better to keep it simple when it comes to packing for a destination wedding. Other than the ensemble you plan to wear to the ceremony, pack a few simple pieces you can mix and match to create new outfits.
