1. Don’t Shy Away From Bright Colors

Destination wedding dresses call for something fun and cheerful in brighter hues. Colors like bright pinks, turquoise blues, and vibrant oranges will be great. You can spend the weekend in breezy caftans by day and chic maxis by night. Make sure your fabrics are natural and breathable. to consider fabrics such as chiffon, lace, silk, and tulle. Skip the regular and go a little wild for this one.

2. Accessorize

As far as accessories are concerned, you definitely want some bling. Opt for statement necklaces, colored stone rings, and solitaire studs. Prioritize comfort and make sure you’re able to carry all that jewelry with ease.  In case of a garden wedding, floral headpieces and embellishments will fit in superbly. If accessories are not your thing, add some oomph to your wedding attire with a bright clutch and a fun pair of shoes.

3. All About The Shoes

Shoes are the make or break for destination weddings and should be given utmost importance. For a beach wedding, try wedges and blocks to avoid your heels from sinking in the sand. Flats will work fine too, just ensure that they’re not dull and boring. If it’s an indoor wedding, you can experiment with metallics, sparkles and bright colored heels. However, makes sure they fit well and you are comfortable walking around in them.

4. Flowy and frilly? Yes, please!

Have fun with your attire and choose a dress with a statement ruffle, a hi-lo hemline or short, sassy mini dresses. Not only do ruffles look fun, but they also add a stylish twist to your overall look. A flowy dress will look stunning in the ocean breeze and it will also ensure that you’re cool and comfortable in tropical temperatures. For a castle wedding, go all out with a ball gown or a full A-line wedding dress with a chapel-length train.

5. Makeup And Hair

Opt for a natural look with a fairly simple updo. As far as the makeup is concerned,  airbrush makeup is a very popular solution to ensure a longer lasting radiant look. Also, don’t forget your sunscreen! You can opt for straight hair or curly locks but make sure you follow up with a good hairspray. For a beach wedding, keep your hair all up or go for a pulled back updo so that you don’t have to worry about the wind blowing your hair during the ceremony.
