Winter. Depending on where your geographically located, it can be cold or warm or like Seattle, it will probably be rainy. Thoughts going through your head: You want to look nice but stay warm, and what colors are in?
Purples, Dark Brown, and Yellow(Maybe a yellow rain jacket over your beautiful Purple or Brown Sweater dress?) are good colors. Don't be afraid to be fun and flirt with other colors than just black. If you are accustom to wearing black and white(two colors you can't wear to a wedding) then do your favorite dark colors for this winter wedding, hopefully there is snow to bring out the rich color of your dress. And, don't forget to add accessories and the BEST color for shoes are cream!
April showers bring spring flowers some would say, but I think it brings one heck of a color scheme that is most fun to experiment with. I would love to be married on a fresh spring afternoon. Any colors that you choose, make them soft and rock the legs! Again, depending on the weather, you either wear a pretty sweater or moisturize your legs and arms with baby oil to not only make them shine but will soften your legs while collecting a little bit of sun. An idea of what I will be wearing to the wedding looks a little bit like this:
Look, look! Cream colored shoes! Told you. The color is really simple along with the design, yet very elegant in so many ways. Wear a side bun and string some pieces of Babies Breath through it, unless you wear a black belt around your waist then I would recommend a pair of onyx(My favorite stone that ever existed) earrings and your simple bun. Get creative and fun!
I'm very excited to attend any summer weddings because hats are back in my opinion, hats give off that assumption of sophistication, look at Audrey Hepburn for example! If the Bride has decided to have her wedding outdoors a hat will be nice to have for multiple reasons, like protection from the blazing hot sun (Us Washingtonians don't have to worry much about that one).
For your summer attire, wear something that will be comfortable for you because most summer weddings are intended to be outside. Now, location is a key factor to what you will wear but I say be fun and shine a little, wear a long flowing dress so you can keep cool. You can still have fun and accessories, Sunglasses may be neccessary, unless you have your nice hat to shield your eyes. Mix it up a bit and do your own thing, make your outfit your own but don't get too stressed over it. Start with a dress, get a color you feel accents your skin and does not go against the Bridal ettiquette. Once you have your dress get your shoes and go to a decent thrift store(the best hand-me-down, vintage jewely) and don't forget about the belt, do a belt whether it's big or small. I'm all for hair pretties, flowers are even nice to entwined through your bun or braids.
