    What's the story

    A Jewish wedding can be a culturally rich experience for any first-time attendee.

    If you have received an invitation to such an event celebrating love, tradition, and community, you might be wondering what to wear.

    In this fashion guide, we will explore how to dress appropriately for a Jewish wedding, keeping in mind the customs and traditions that make this celebration so special.

    Dress code 

    Understanding the dress code

    The dress code can vary depending on the level of formality. It is essential to read the invitation carefully, as some weddings may specify the attire.

    In general, it is best to opt for semi-formal or formal attire. Men should consider wearing a suit and tie, while women can choose elegant dresses or gowns.

    Make sure to avoid outfits that are too revealing.

    Outfit 

    Grace is a must

    Humbleness is a significant aspect of Jewish weddings, and it's especially important when it comes to dressing.

    Women may choose dresses with sleeves, avoid low-cut necklines, and opt for maxi skirts. Men can wear long pants and shirts with sleeves, avoid shorts and tank tops.

    For some weddings, it's also customary for men to wear a head covering, such as a kippah or yarmulke.

    Dressing according to the season

    When selecting wedding attire, factor in the season and time.

    Opt for lighter fabrics and colors for summer weddings, with pastel dresses for women and lighter suits for men.

    In the winter, darker and more substantial fabrics work well. A stylish coat or shawl can also add a touch of chic fashion to your outfit, especially if the ceremony takes place outdoors.

    Accessories and footwear 

    Women can add elegance to their attire with tasteful jewelry and a clutch or handbag.

    When it comes to footwear, comfortable yet stylish shoes are a must, especially if you plan to dance at the reception.

    Men can choose dress shoes that match their suit, and don't forget to wear a kippah throughout the event. A kippah clip can help keep it secure.
