Wedding season is upon us, and summer weddings are close on the horizon! If you’ve already gotten an invitation or two to a friend’s summer wedding, you’ll need a fresh summer outfit to fit the occasion. If you’re scratching your head trying to figure out what to wear, check out the mood boards below featuring this season’s outfit inspirations! 

Summer weddings call for breathable fabrics—silk or wool blends for men, and lightweight fabric like chiffon for women. Summer also means there’s room to play around with things like bold colors, shoulder cuts and hemline variations—a bright midi dress for women or a linen suit in lighter colors for men works perfectly. 

Whatever you decide to wear, remember it’s always better to be overdressed than underdressed. This is a wedding, after all! Don’t be afraid to play with patterns or embellish with fun jewelry. Summer is all about soaking up the sun-filled season, and your outfit can easily reflect this!
