I've definitely been team JOMO(Joy of missing out) for a while now. Perhaps it was the pandemic which made me a happy recluse. These days, I find myself embracing those little dress up moments. I am a Fashion Designer and stylist by profession with a keen eye for detail and highly knowledgeable on textiles. A happy occasion like a wedding is something I love assisting my clients with. I've curated this list to help you decide on your perfect wedding guest outfit. Whatever the theme, dress code or season, I hope you'll find exactly what you need.

I got married in 2023 to the love of my life! We planned our wedding to be in the Central Pennsylvania area, and had to include our dogs. We wanted everything perfect for us, but not break our bank. These are some of the items that we used to make our day special and affordable!
Items that are must haves on the big day!! After being a bridesmaid one too many times, I’ve learned a thing or two. Some of these items are no brainers but some of them were a lesson learned because the bride was searching for the item the day of. So it’s better to have them ready so that she has a smooth day :)
All of the links are the cheapest price found online to help make things easier. You’ve got enough to worry about prepping for the big day! Most of these are from Target so you could do a mass pickup order if you wanted to.
My favorite little amazon finds for the newly engaged couple! (many just for the bride to be!) that are perfect for an engagement party, or just because you want to celebrate their exciting news!
It doesn't get more affordable than this! AND being able to customize things at these prices, you can't beat! I planned a destination wedding in Mexico but I also am doing all the decor ourselves. For a video of this haul, find it on my tiktok page @gabrielasells. Let me know if you have any questions! :)
💍 As a 2025 bride myself, I know how overwhelming (and exciting!) it can be pulling all the details together. This list is filled with the invitations, stationery, signage, and little extras that helped me bring my wedding vision to life. Think of it as your shortcut to the pretty pieces that make the whole day feel seamless and special. If you’re in the middle of planning, I hope this saves you time, stress, and gives you a touch of inspo for your own big day!
Through the years, I've designed many different wedding invitations, but the ones on this list are some of my favorites. I tend to prefer simple and minimalist designs, but there is a little bit of everything here!

I had a year between engagement & my actual wedding.
