What to wear to a backyard wedding. Since we have seen the backyard style wedding really take off we can pretty much bet that at some point. Try not to wear jeans t shirts athletic clothing sneakers or anything you would wear on a normal day think your sunday best with a couple of alterations for grass lawns and potential inclement weather. We had a backyard wedding on a ranch with uneven surfaces and no question popped up more frequently for our guests even ones who traveled very far than what they should wear to this type of wedding. Some couples get married in their backyard because they want the wedding to be very small low key and super casual.
Among the virtues of an outdoor wedding is that the ceremony can transport you anywhere from beach dunes to the top of a mountain or deep in the grass of a friend s backyard. See our favorite cocktail dresses for wedding guests. An intimate evening spent beneath string lights and among bare feet padding through fresh sod on the way. There are few things we love more than a romantic backyard wedding.
Unless specifically instructed to do so do not wear jeans to a wedding. If jeans do happen to be requested as attire choose a darker wash with no distressing to avoid looking too casual. Casual backyard wedding attire could include a pretty sundress a skirt and a blouse or a casual maxi dress. Anything you d wear to a nice restaurant on a summer night is appropriate.
A backyard wedding is casual but it s still a wedding after all. A pretty sundresses is fine for a very informal wedding. For a daytime wedding outdoors a short sleeved polo or button down shirt looks nice paired with slacks such as chinos. Make sure shirttails are tucked in and trousers are accessorized with a simple brown or black leather belt.
In this case you would not need to wear a cocktail dress. Opt for khakis or dress pants just to be safe. While we can admittedly be sticklers for tradition even to a fault when it comes to weddings there s simply something irresistible and charming about a laid back evening of wedding festivities in your own backyard. A backyard wedding typically has a more casual dress code.
The wedding planner said that guests should not wear beach attire to the wedding itself even if the ceremony is right by the ocean. Jeans are usually too informal even for backyard weddings. Whether it s a beach botanical garden or backyard wedding men s guest attire is easy.
