This weekend I am headed to Iowa to attend my Uncles wedding. I am excited to dress up and attend his big day! I put together two similar, but different looks, hopefully giving you an idea on what to wear to a wedding. Sometimes it is hard to know what to wear, but it can be fun, so don't stress about it! I have listed below four things you should never, ever wear to a wedding! 

1.{Black}: Try to stay away from the color black, it is boring and looks like you are headed somewhere other than a wedding, which is a time for celebration! If you do go with a black dress, try something with sequin, or something fit and flirty! You don't have to wear something as bright as I am, but something that is light and fun would be perfect.

2.{Something To Revealing}: There is nothing wrong with showing off a little leg, but a wedding is not the occasion for that. I think the perfect length would be this Skye on the Town dress, which is currently more that half off! The length hits the knees, showing off your cute shoes, and a little leg. 

3.{A Prom Dress}: I am sure we all want to relive our prom day (not) but try an stay clear of something that would get confused as a prom dress. Big, shiny and poofy dresses are a don't to any wedding. If you are going to a formal wedding, try the dress I wore in the first look. It is from Shabby Apple (also on sale!) and is perfect dress for a formal wedding. I love the color and detail throughout. It is a simple dress that won't scream "trying to hard".

4.{White}: Let's face it, it isn't your big day yet, so don't steal the show with a white dress. If you must wear something white, try going with something with a pattern or pop of color. I love the understated elegance of this kaleidoscope dress print. It is light, but super fun. You won't be confused with the bride!
