Received your invitation in the post? Agonising over what to wear? When it comes to wedding style, the Royal family and their guests ace it like no other.
As with any wedding, fashion is always at the forefront, meaning you want to look your best. Why not take tips from some of the people who do it best – the Royal family! And thanks to two Royal weddings in the last year, we have plenty of inspiration to go on. Check out our tips on how to attend a wedding and raise the fashion stakes just like the Royals and their guests!
Play It Safe With Pastels
Wearing pastels may not make you a risk taker but you can’t go wrong wearing them. Fabulous for spring and summer nuptials, shades of lilac, baby blue and soft pinks always work well. Look to the likes of Priyanka Chopra, Kate and Meghan for inspiration.
Bold Is Beautiful
Opting for a daring, bold colour will undoubtedly make you stand out from all the rest. Don’t be afraid to wear hues such as purple and vibrant yellow, just like stunning Amal Clooney when she attended Meghan and Harry’s wedding in May 2018.

Pretty In Patterns
Just because you’re at a wedding, doesn’t mean you have to wear one colour only. Mix it up by wearing different patterns and colours, whether it’s a summer or winter wedding, patterns always look great. We especially love this Alessandra Rich dress both Kate Middleton and actress Abigail Spencer wore in 2018.
A Hat Is Your Best Friend
A Royal wedding wouldn’t be complete without a guest wearing a fancy hat or fascinator! Don’t be scared to add some Royal style by adding a hat to your outfit. From traditional hats to delicate fascinators, they’re an easy way to fast-track your ensemble to being wedding guest ready.
Nude It Up
A firm favourite colour of Kate’s, The Duchess of Cambridge often wears nude hued dresses and shoes when attending weddings and family events and who can blame her? The colour is versatile and complements a range of different skin tones – definitely something to consider when outfit shopping.

Even though you’re pregnant, it doesn’t mean you can’t look good at a wedding! Take style tips from the queen of maternity looks, the Duchess of Cambridge. When Kate was pregnant, she wasn’t afraid of raising the fashion stakes by wearing different cuts, styles and colours.
Flower Power
At Harry and Meghan’s wedding in May 2018, a popular style was floral dresses – and it’s easy to see why. Naturally a go-to print for spring and summer, floral dresses always look chic and very easy to pull off.
