👗 Bonus: Timeless Style Rules
- Never wear white or anything too close to it (unless the bride says so).
- Black is acceptable only for evening or formal weddings.
- Less is more, especially for daytime weddings. Skip the heavy sparkle.
- Fabric quality matters: texture and flow elevate the look.
- Always dress for the venue: A countryside wedding is not the same as a luxury hotel soirée.
