You are a woman who prides herself on your good taste and are always spot-on for the occasions you attend. You have been invited to a beach wedding and you are trying to figure out what to wear. It promises to be a fun party by the water at sunset. But it is not your typical wedding ceremony or reception where you pull out your gorgeous evening gown and those to-die-for strappy sandals. Neither is it an event for which you want to show up in your beach gear of swimsuit and shorts. You don’t want to be too formal and you don’t want to come across as sloppy. Well, there is an answer to your dilemma. Think of something light and gauzy. A light material is just right for the beach and flowing materials will look pretty in the breeze. Depending on the time of the ceremony and your own coloring you can go with pastels or jewel tones – there is no wrong choice in the color. You may want to go with knee-length dresses and even choose one with an uneven hemline. This will be practical while in the sand and near the water. It is a great way to look dressy and casually elegant. Dresses with spaghetti straps or something with short-sleeves will capture the beach mood of the ceremony. But do carry a coordinating cardigan as it can get cool after the sun drops down the horizon. While you are lingering at the reception you can still look gorgeous without having to shiver through it.
