Tropical beach weddings have become increasingly popular and dressing the part often means fashionable sundresses with some fun accessories. Keeping “flowy and beachy” in mind, the look should help imbue ceremonious charm to the event. Of course, incorporating a tropical, nature-inspired motif throughout the look complements the setting. A long, light-colored, billowing halter dress that sways with the breeze is a great choice for high-impact, yet easy dressing. Experiment with an edgier look with an asymmetrical hemline or ruffles in bright hues for an unexpected twist.

A relaxed backyard wedding calls for floral designs, chiffon, and elements that are in tune with the surroundings. Nothing spells sophisticated warm-weather dressing like a pretty, romantic sleeveless dress in a classic silhouette. Lace also can work well for wedding parties and the material echoes the romantic, laid-back mood of a garden wedding. Beat the heat in a simple, lightweight chiffon or figure-hugging knit number that can be repurposed for a multitude of occasions later in the year.
