Dress Code Wording For Invitations

I think that sounds fine @@VegasBride121314 I wouldn't be insulted either if it was requested by the bride.

@@Lilian84 thanks! I'm hoping my guests feel the same. My mum doesn't...and it doesn't apply to her since she's walking me down the aisle!

I'm excited to hear that some east coast friends have said they can't wait to wear all white in December! Here in Cali, we pretty much wear whatever color whenever we want. But on the east with distinct seasons, white in the winter is a no no! I'm hoping my photos are as pretty in reality as they are in my head!    . Guests in black, white or beige, bridal party in red, turquoise and grey, mothers & fathers in grey! Oh, and the dress code does not apply to children. They are invited to match the bridal party or be colorful!

Interesting idea! I think it's very unique to have such bold bridal colors and have desired colors for the guests. I wouldn't be offended either if I were asked to wear particular colors. 

 

I didn't plan on commenting on the invitation as far as dress code but I made a playful comment about it on our website. I said "Since our ceremony will take place on the beach, I don't expect full formal attire from our guests but please dress respectively as you share this special day with us and not wear a bathing suit with cover up to our ceremony :-)".

I think it helps to add some advice on what the dress "code" is.  Many of our guests have been asking us so it's something people are wondering.

I have had a few guests ask the wedding colors. I'm not sure if they're asking in order to match or to steer clear of the colors. It sounds like people would rather know the dress code/wedding colors earlier in order to plan.
