It’s Not What, but WHO Are You Wearing

Let me (its Brandi!), be the first to say that for me, picking out the perfect dress to wear to a wedding (as a guest) is a challenge. You don’t want to be too formal, too casual or look like an extra bridesmaid. Why do guys have it so easy!?

Because our ceremony is on a boat, we’ve received a lot of inquiries about what guests should wear to our wedding, so we decided to address it on this blog.

• No, you don’t need to make a costume change! Whatever you wear to the ceremony on the boat will look just fabulous at the reception. However, if you have two outfits and just can’t decide, totally rock them both!

• June weather in Pittsburgh can be a little tricky (according to Wikipedia, the average high is 80, while the low is 56). If it is a pleasant day, the ceremony will be outside on the boat. You should prepare for some sun or a have a cardigan or wrap on hand for chilly weather (check the forecast). If it is raining, the ceremony will be inside, but still on the boat.

• The bridesmaids are going to look hot in some apple green dresses!

• Our wedding is not black tie – no need for the men to wear or rent a tux.

• There is no need to dress in theme (i.e. sailor or pirate), but don’t be afraid to purchase a seersucker suit for the occasion.

While Brady and I embrace personal style and creativity, jeans and shorts (sorry Ryan!) are not recommended wedding attire.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact Brandi!
