How to Dress for a Destination Wedding
Posted by
Feeling lost at sea? Not shore what to wear?! A destination wedding is an amazing experience, although dressing for sandy beaches can be a challenge! But don't worry, Frederick Thomas London are here to help you suit up for the beach!
Lucky you! A beach destination wedding is definitely one for the bucket list. It's not quite the typical church wedding on a rainy Sunday though, so it's important to adapt your suit accordingly.
Unfortunately a destination wedding doesn't mean you can wear your flip flops, what is does mean though, is lightweight and cool materials. There is a reason the bride and groom have chosen a destination wedding, and that's because of the sun! Warmer climates are always appealing, especially if you are used to the British weather. But a full blown suit in the sun is definitely not appealing! So it's important to focus on the materials. We suggest cotton and linen, from your tie down to your socks!
Have a look at our blog on How to Suit up this Summer for more heat defying top tips.
We know you're not a child....but a red face and sun burn won't look good in the wedding photos!
Getting off to the right start is essential, stay stylish with one of our Frederick Thomas London Weekend Bags - perfect for that weekend wedding away! Why not check out our blog on Packing Tips while you're here, a creased shirt is not a good look on the big day!
Depending on how formal the wedding is, footwear can be flexible! As we said before, flip flops are a no go. But a smart pair of brown leather sandals will do the trick nicely. But if the dress code isn't quite as forgiving, then a loafer or dress shoe might be essential. So instead, turn your attention to the socks. Cotton socks are a must! All our Frederick Thomas London Socks are made from 70% cotton. So at least your feet will stay as fresh as possible, despite all the sand in your shoes!
Featuring: Palm Tree Socks, Pink Linen Tie and Pineapple Cufflinks
Featuring: Lobster Cufflinks, Flamingo Socks and Nautical Linen Pocket Square
