HOW TO DRESS FOR A SUMMER WEDDING

You have received the invitation in the mail.
A close family
member, friend or colleague has decided to get married and the date is set for
the summer. Even if you imagine a cinematic setting, the question that comes to
mind is, "What should I wear?" The rest of the year, the wool suit in
your wardrobe is good for anything, although it may require a bit of
creativity. Summer weddings are something totally different. Unless it's a destination
wedding that takes you somewhere up north, you'll have to face the sun, the
heat, and an almost entirely open-air ceremony and reception. Wool suits, in
this case, are not suitable, especially if you go to the Caribbean or the

Your family
member, friend or even a close colleague has decided to get married and the
date is set for the summer. Even if you imagine perfect weather, the question
that comes to mind is, "What am I wearing?" The rest of the year, the
wool suit in your wardrobe will have you covered, although a little creativity
may be a bit justified. Summer weddings are a completely different beast.
Unless it's a destination wedding that takes you somewhere far north, you'll
have to deal with the sun, the heat, and an almost entirely open-air ceremony
and reception. Wool suits, in this case, will not suit you, especially if you
are heading to the Caribbean or the Balearic Islands. So that you don't look
bad dressed in chinos and a shirt, here's how to wear your summer wedding

Truth be told, no one should have to do this. Unfortunately,
perhaps due to smart and casual assumptions, not all couples list the dress

you'll show up in a light-colored suit, dressed to be standing in the sand for
the next few hours. If you know the couple, it does not hurt to ask about their
expectations so that things are clear. But, if you are a distant relative or
acquaintance, you may need to do some research. For now, you can base your

The place:
Is the wedding taking place in a church followed by an elegant
ballroom, or is it outdoors or even on the beach? Usually a cocktail or
semi-formal party is sufficient for a church wedding. Weddings outdoors, on the
lawn or in the sand, are more complicated. Considering the temperature and
location, an unlined linen or cotton summer suit in a lighter shade is suitable
for the occasion.
Place:
For some, summer is synonymous with a destination wedding.
You will have to cross several countries, or an entire ocean, to stay in a
hotel, help in the preparation of the event and, finally, be on a beach to see
the bride and groom pronounce their vows. Occasions like these determine your
wardrobe for the event - so if you're heading to a warmer, if not tropical,
climate, brace yourself with a linen suit and a light dress shirt. The closer
you are to the equator, the more breathable the material should be.
