Well ladies, the spring wedding season is officially upon us! I know some people hate weddings, but I love them because it's a good excuse to buy a brand new outfit!
The issue with spring weddings is that the weather can be so unpredictable. It can be 75 degrees and sunny one day and then 55 degrees and rainy the next. You want to try and strike a balance between dressing for the season and dressing for the weather.
First things first. We need to break down the dress code rules. I am pretty good at deciphering a wedding dress code based on the invitation and location of the reception but, just to be safe, I am going to reference the experts at The Emily Post Institute.
Formal Wedding
Daytime: Cocktail or dressy afternoon dress
Evening: Depending on local customs, long evening dress or dressy cocktail dress; gloves optional.
Semi-formal Wedding
Daytime: Dressy afternoon dress, suit or pantsuit
Evening: Cocktail dress, dressy pantsuit
Informal Wedding
Daytime: Afternoon dress; dressy skirt or pants and blouse
Evening: Afternoon or cocktail dress

Now that the official attire rules are out of the way, let's focus on the clothes!
