Can I coordinate what guests wear!??!?!

I only had 14 guests & knew them all well enough to know that they'd go along with my plan. In my invitations and on my website I stated "We are going for a 'white wedding' look so please consider wearing dressy beach attire in shades of white and khaki". Everyone did.

maybe tell them that you are considering them part of your wedding party. seems like a nice touch.

Yeah, Morgan that is a good idea that I think everyone would respond favorably to.

Its really hard to say if its too much to ask or not unless you know how the people will react.

 

I would never dream of asking my guests to wear certain colours as that would not go over well with quite a few individuals that are coming to my wedding (mainly family). My friends on the other hand would think the whole thing is great hoot and would go along with it. I actually think half my girlfiends would buy matching outfits and pretend they are secondary bridesmaids.

 

So I think you know best if its too much or not to request such co-ordination from your guests.

Thanks so much guys-- I think I'm going for it... If people get annoyed, then they can wear whatever-or just have a few more drinks at the AI bar and I'm sure that'd help! ----

 

I think I'll put in there since we are having a small wedding and everything invited is special to us, we consider all of our guests to be part of our official wedding party- with that, it'd be great if everyone can wear dressy beach attire in shades of white, khaki, blue, red or yellow... If a guests wants to wear orange or black -we'll just stick them in back of pix- hehe Thanks again everyone!
