Destination weddings are becoming more and more common. The special thing about them is that there's not as much of a pressure in looking so formal. Destination weddings are all about feeling pretty, light and dainty. So here goes...
With wedding season right up the alley, I personally have a lot of weddings to attend to (some friends, some family) and in the past it's always been a hassle for me to figure out what to wear based on the theme. I think I'm finally at a point where I've perfected each theme to a T, so this is my way of giving back!! I know how hard it can be to find a nice dress and sometimes even find one last minute. So here is a run down of my favorite guest outfits for a black tie theme wedding.
Wedding guest dresses and jumpsuits from my favorite brand! I own at least 6 of these. Lulus never disappoints! Their fabrics are luxurious and flattering, and the styles they release are never boring or plain. Even the most simplistic dress has small details that make it stand out.
A lot of items I used at my own wedding and they were a huge hit! I wanted to continue to share them with everyone else incase anyone else is on the hunt for wedding ideas. 😊
Fall is literally the most popular time of the year for weddings. So it would stand to reason that it's one of the most popular times of year to elope too! Most of the country has ideal weather in the fall (there's a reason Tennesseee Fall is my favorite season) and there's always so many fun things to do when you go somewhere fun in the fall, I mean what town or city doesn't have some sort of fall festival? Here's my list of the top places to elope in the fall based on their weather and potentially how busy it'll be around that time of year.

I was a 2024 bride and work in the wedding industry so I see weddings every day and am always keeping up with what's trending. I love seeing brides show their personal style! Whether it's a bachelorette party, rehearsal dinner, or reception dress change I love to see people's style. Because when else do you get to wear all the white glitz and glam?!
p.s. save this list if you like it because i'll be updating it occasionally with new dresses! let's face it, these sites have hundreds and hundreds of pages of clothing, and it's a nightmare to sift through. but i stand by the fact that you don't need to be spending hundreds of dollars on a dress, AND that you don't need to be wearing the same (plain) dresses as other people. i've searched through hundreds of dresses to find ones that are $100 and unique. both are also they're typically fairly quick and have a great easy return policy so i can order a bunch to try on and return.
