What to Wear: Complete Autumn Wedding Guest Fashion

Fashion & Jewellery

Autumn weddings allow for a whole host of styles for wedding guests. The fashion ‘off season’ means you’re free to choose from spring-friendly shades or go glamorous in wintery glitters. We’ve mainly headed to the high street to compile our stylish wedding guest outfits for today but of course there are plenty of incredible boutiques around Ireland to visit if you’re after something really unique. McElhinneys Department Store in Donegal specialises in styling occasion wear for all events and budgets, they also house some of the world’s top occasion wear designers and a huge range of accessories. Make sure to check out Olivia Danielle Boutique in Westmeath for hand picked special occasion wear. Olivia Danielle has some seriously stylish collections that are bang on trend for wedding guests of all ages, they’re also hands-on with all their customers and will style an outfit that suits both your personality and your occasion. If you’re searching for something truly unique, why not create your own dress with the help of Dresses by Me? Dresses by Me allows you to design a dress online by choosing everything from the colour to the shape to the fabric – it’s ideal for those who know what they want but just can’t find it in more conventional stores in the country.
