What To Wear At A Bachelorette Party As A Guest: Must Know

Today, we’re going to be looking at what to wear at a bachelorette party as a guest. You’ve been invited to a bachelorette party and you’ve likely been looking forward to this moment for weeks, or even months, now. And finding the perfect outfit for any event can be difficult – so what do you wear to a bachelorette party? Can you wear white? Are there do’s and don’ts? Let’s take a closer look.

What Is A Bachelorette Party?

A bachelorette party is one of the most exciting days for the bride (and her bridal party) before the wedding. It’s a time to come together and celebrate her last night out in singlehood. It’s a chance for the bride to let her hair down and have some fun with her nearest and dearest female friends (and sometimes family).

It usually takes place a few months prior to the wedding and can be anything from a weekend away in Vegas, to pizza and wine in my pajamas from the comfort of your home!

Dressing For The Occasion – Bachelorette Party Dress Code Ideas

Your outfit will depend entirely on the activity of your bachelorette party and whether there’s a dress code. If it’s a spa weekend, you don’t really want to be turning up in a black formal gown! And if it’s a fancy dress party, you don’t want to be turning up in a pair of jeans and heels!

So if there’s no specific dress code and you know what you’re doing – here are some suggestions to wear for each occasion.

Dinner and Dancing

A night out bachelorette party outfit is one of the easiest. If you’re going for a traditional bachelorette party of dinner and then hitting the nightclubs, the perfect outfit is that little black dress hidden away in your closet for special occasions. Your shoes and accessories for the outfit can be changed depending on where you’re going for your night out. But you can never go wrong with a pair of stiletto heels!

Spa Getaway

Spa days are the perfect way to relax and grab some me-time before the wedding. It’s always best to bring a swimming costume to a spa – you never know when you might end up in the hot tub! And for the daytime, some sweatpants and a t-shirt are completely fine. You can find some super cute Bride Squad matching tee and shorts from sites like Boohoo. They make for some great photos!

Weekend Away

The outfits for the weekend away all depend on where you’re going! It’s always best to throw in a swimming costume and towel. And you can’t go wrong with a maxi dress or a cocktail dress for the evening – particularly if you’re going somewhere warm. Just don’t forget to bring a jacket – it can get chilly in the evenings!

Wine Tasting

Wine tasting is becoming increasingly popular for bachelorette parties. And it’s an event that is a lot more relaxed in terms of what to wear. A sundress and trainers are more than dressy enough! But if you want to go all out and dress up, there’s nothing stopping you. It just may be better to dress more casual…especially with all the wine you’ll be drinking!

Glamping

THERMALS! If you’re going glamping, it may be cold so make sure you bring enough clothes to keep you warm and cozy. Jeans and jumpers are perfect for glamping. Comfortable is the keyword to focus on when you’re choosing your outfits for glamping!

Staying Home

The perks of having a stay-at-home bachelorette party is that it can be as chill as possible! This is the time to get personalized robes and pajamas. Take some super cute photos in your matching attire and play some fun games – all from the comfort of your home!

Bachelorette Party Attire Tips

Here are some tips and tricks you may want to stick to when choosing your outfit.

Don’t Wear White. This should go without saying, but it’s always best to avoid white. White is the color that is strictly reserved for the bride, and unless she specifically states in the dress code that she wants you to wear white – steer clear! The bride may not even want to wear white for her bachelorette party, but it’s always best to avoid it, just in case.
Follow the Dress Code. If there is a dress code, do follow it as closely as possible. It’s the bride’s special day and you don’t want to take any of the attention away from her by turning up in an outfit that isn’t appropriate or makes you stand out for the wrong reasons.
Go for Comfort. Wear whatever you feel most comfortable in. If there’s any part of the day you feel insecure about (such as wearing a bathing suit), talk to the bride or the maid of honor. You can easily adapt outfits to suit all body shapes and sizes, so be sure to include everyone.
Make it Your Own. While most bachelorette parties will wear matching tees, sashes, etc., be sure to make your outfit your own. Add a belt, a hat, or a piece of statement jewelry. While it’s cute to be matching, you want to be able to tell you all apart!

Conclusion

I hope this article has helped to answer the question of what to wear at a bachelorette party as a guest. It really couldn’t be easier! You probably already have something tucked away in your closet to suit any occasion. As long as you’re sticking to any dress code given, and dressing appropriately for the activity – you can’t really go wrong with your outfit choice.

When To Have Bridal Shower and Bachelorette Party: The Perfect Time

Today, we’re going to be looking at when to have a bridal shower and bachelorette party. In the lead-up to any wedding, there are many events to plan and get excited for.

For women, the two that are most common are bridal showers and bachelorette parties – but what’s the difference between the two? Are they the same thing? We’ll be taking a look at the best time to have them and the differences between them both.

What Is A Bridal Shower?

A bridal shower usually occurs in the daytime. It’s a celebration of the bride’s upcoming marriage. It’s a time where gifts are often given to the bride to help them in their new venture of married life. Female family and friends of the bride traditionally receive an invite – however, you can invite whoever you wish.

What Is A Bachelorette Party?

A bachelorette party (or hen night, depending on where you are) is a party held for the bride-to-be. Traditionally it happens in the evening and is attended by females only. However, in more recent years, male friends and family members of the bride can be invited; and some couples even opt to have a joint bachelor and bachelorette party.

Difference Between Bridal Shower And Bachelorette Party

Although they both seem like parties (and they are), there are many differences between the two. The main one being, a bridal shower is to prepare the bride for her venture with gifts and a celebration. Whereas a bachelorette party is usually the time for a bride to let her hair down and celebrate her last night of singlehood.

There are some other significant differences between the two. Let’s take a look.

The Activities

Your bridal shower will often be more sophisticated than your bachelorette party – there may even be children in attendance at your bridal shower. Because of this, you’ll often play family-friendly games, open any gifts you’ve received, and celebrate with a glass of champagne or two.

Whereas at your bachelorette party, you can really let loose and you’ll likely end up with a hangover for the next day or two. And this is the time to use the penis straws and have a bit of fun…definitely not something you’d want your grandma seeing!

The Timing

Some brides do prefer to have their bridal shower in the afternoon, and their bachelorette party in the evening, but traditionally, they are not done at the same time. We’ll be taking a look at the best time to have both in more depth later in this post.

The Guests

While some guests may be attending both parties, the guestlist for both will be significantly different. The guest list for your bridal shower will be much longer than your bachelorette party. Your bridal shower is the place to invite your grandma and your future mother in law, and any other nearest and dearest female friends and family members.

Whereas the bachelorette party is often just your bridal party – the closest females (or males) in your life. It’s the night when you can really have some fun with the closest people in your life.

The Atmosphere

There’s no doubt about it – the atmosphere will likely be completely different. At your bridal party, it’s more likely to be something like brunch, a spa, or afternoon tea. Whereas your bachelorette will likely be at a nightclub or a bar and can last several days; depending on what celebration you choose. One will be calm and relaxing, the other will be wild and fun.

The Hosts

Everyone close to you will likely play a part in the organization of both. However, traditionally the maid/matron of honor and bridesmaids will arrange the bachelorette party and the family of the bride (such as the MIL and mother of the bride) will plan the bridal shower.

When Do You Have Bridal Shower?

The bridal shower is typically much closer to the wedding than the bachelorette. The ideal time is between 2-4 weeks before the wedding. This is the perfect time to celebrate your upcoming nuptials, without being too close to the wedding. The bridal shower only usually lasts a few hours in the afternoon, so you do not need to give as much notice as you would for the bachelorette.

When Do You Have A Bachelorette Party?

Typically, a bachelorette party happens between 1-3 months before the wedding day. This will give you more than enough time to recover, but it’s close enough to the wedding to really feel some excitement. It may last a few days, or at least overnight – so make sure you give any guests plenty of time to get the dates in their diaries.

Where To Go For A Bachelorette Party?

Where you go for your bachelorette party all depends on what type of person you are. Some brides may prefer for a quiet few days around the pool sipping margaritas and being pampered. Whereas other brides may like to go to Las Vegas for a few nights and go out of single life with a bang.

If you’re planning the bachelorette party, it’s important to take the bride’s interests and values into account. If she’s not a party girl, simple afternoon tea and a pamper day may be better suited.

Whichever bride you are, this article from The Knot has some great suggestions on the 32 Best Bachelorette Destinations. There’s something for every bride!

Conclusion

I hope this article has helped you learn when to have a bridal shower and bachelorette party. The truth is, there’s no “perfect” time, the ideal time is when works for you. Some brides may want one long day of celebrating with both parties on the same day, whereas others may like to prolong the celebrations. There’s no right or wrong time.

What Size Wedding Dress Am I?: Everything You Need To Know

Today, we’re going to be looking at how to answer the question: what size wedding dress am I? Choosing your bridal gown will probably feel like one of the most important aspects of your wedding – at least, it was to me.

When I went bridal gown shopping, I wanted to go in with some knowledge of my measurements and what size I may be. But how do you measure yourself for a wedding dress? Is wedding dress sizing the same as standard clothing sizing? Let’s take a closer look.

Choosing Your Dream Dress

Before you go for your bridal consultation, you may want to do some research online. Whether that be choosing your preferred fabric, dress shape, cut, or style – it’s good to go into the boutique with a vague idea of what you’re looking for.

Of course, that may change the second you try the dress on! But it’s good to go into the store with some ideas of what you’d like to try on and what you’re looking for. That way, your bridal consultant will have a starting point and know where to begin.

I’m one of the rare few who chose my dream dress online, found a local stockist, tried it on…and fell in love. My consultant told me that was incredibly rare and often brides leave the store with a dress completely different than what they’ve envisioned. Even if you love a dress, be sure to try on a few so that you can be sure it’s “the one”.

Are Wedding Dress Sizes Different?

Yes! Wedding dress sizes are different from standard sizing. Whatever size you think you are, that is more than likely not the case in wedding gowns. They are different in many ways – and we’ll be looking at why they’re different in more detail later in this article.

Wedding Dress Sizes: How to Find Out Yours

To find out your size, there’s a range of ways to do this. The size will all depend on the style and shape of the dress. And frustratingly, what fits in one designer’s size, may not fit in another. Let’s take a look at how to find out your wedding dress size.

Do Your Research

Finding out your regular size before you go into a boutique is actually really helpful. Your bridal consultant will know how the sizing of their gowns compares to standard sizing, so giving them that information will be super helpful.

You can also let the consultant know what dresses you usually opt for and suit your body shape – that way they have a starting point on how to flatter your body shape the most, and also what you feel most comfortable in.

How to Take Your Dress Measurements

If you’re wanting to go in with knowledge of what dress size you may be, this is definitely possible. Wed2B has an amazing Wedding Dress Calculator, which lets you input the style of dress you’re looking for and your measurements. Then it gives you a rough sizing for the style – how incredible is that?

Measuring couldn’t be easier, so let’s take a look at the most important measurements and how to take them.

Bust. You should measure directly across the bust and then around under your arms at the widest part of your shoulder blades
Waist. Measure wherever your natural waistline is, all the way around the waist
Hip. Fullest part with feet together
Waist – Hem. Vertically measure from your waistline to the floor

Be sure to use a flexible tape measure so the measurements are as accurate as possible.

Wedding Dress Size Chart

Every bridal boutique and wedding dress designer will have its own size chart, so if you’re looking for a certain designer, be sure to look at their size chart beforehand. Most bridal boutiques have a website you can visit and download their sizing guide.

Do Weddings Gowns Run Small?

Yes! I can’t stress this enough. There is a huge possibility that you will likely need a size or two bigger than usual for your wedding gown. For example, if you’re a size 4, you may need a 6 or 8. While this may be something that you feel insecure about, please don’t. This is very common with wedding dresses and it’s simply just the way the sizing is.

There is no “one chart” for every wedding dress, but most will run smaller than standard sizing.

Is Every Designer Different?

Frustratingly, yes. You may be different sizes depending on which designer you’re trying on. So take into account that every style has slightly different sizing, and every designer does too – knowing your size can be a bit of a minefield!

The most important thing is that you have your measurements, as ultimately that’s how you decide on a size and every designer will have one.

What If I Want To Lose Weight?

Many brides will choose to shift some weight before the big day. It’s important not to buy a size that’s too small for you. While you may think it’ll give you motivation, it puts a lot of pressure on you too. It’s much easier to tailor a dress to make it smaller than it is to make it bigger.

So opt for the dress size you are on the day you try it on, and the dress can be tailored as and when it needs to be. Be sure to shop well in advance so there’s enough time for any adjustments that need to be made.

Conclusion

I hope this article has helped you to answer the question: what wedding dress size am I? And hopefully, you’ll now enter the bridal store brimming with confidence and knowledge about your dress size and style.

How To Tell If He’s Going To Propose: The Signs

Today, we’re going to be looking at how to tell he’s going to propose. And the signs and hints your boyfriend may give when he’s on the road to making his grand proposal. But what should you be looking out for? Can you really tell when he’s about to pop the question? Let’s take a closer look.

Can You Tell When A Man Is Going To Propose?

Let’s be honest, we can never truly know when a man is going to propose, as every man will respond in different ways to the build-up of the proposal. But there are subtle hints and signs you may want to look out for and start preparing for your perhaps imminent engagement.

How Soon Is Too Soon To Propose?

I don’t believe it is ever too soon to propose. While your family and friends may not agree with the proposal, it’s essentially when feels right for the couple. I remember when I and my husband got engaged we’d been together a year and had been living together for 6 months – everyone thought it was too soon. But when you know, you know. And almost 6 years of marriage later, we’re still in a happy marriage.

It’s important that you’re both on the same wavelength, and at least discuss marriage in some way before you propose, as marriage may not be something your partner wants. But as long as you both feel ready, that’s all that matters. Whether that’s two years down the line or two months!

Signs He Will Propose In The Future

There are some signs to look out for that may mean he’s about to propose. Let’s take a look!

Tightening the Budget

If your partner suggests out of the blue that he’s on a tighter budget than usual, or spending less money than he usually would – that may mean a proposal is on the way. Engagement rings can be incredibly expensive, so it could mean he’s saving up for the ring of your dreams.

Becoming More Interested in Jewellery

Is he suddenly asking for your ring size? Or asking if you like silver or gold? Or wondering if you like diamonds or another gemstone? It may just mean he’s buying a piece of jewelry for your birthday or Christmas…or it may mean he’s getting ready to pop the question!

Hanging Out with Your Family Without You

Is he pulling family members inside and having secretive chats? Or going out for a coffee on his lunch break with your mum? Or asking for family’s phone numbers? If this is something he wouldn’t usually do, he may be looking for information on how to make the proposal as perfect as possible, or even asking for permission!

More Conscious of Plans

Is he asking what you’re doing months in advance? Or telling you to keep a particular day or weekend free? While he could just be planning for some quality time together, he may also be organizing a moment you’ll likely never forget.

Planning a Surprise Vacation/Weekend Break

Is he suddenly whisking you away for the weekend on a surprise trip? This is one of the telltale signs that something exciting is about to happen. More often than not, if it’s a surprise vacation – it may end with an engagement!

Talking About Marriage More

Is marriage being mentioned more than usual? Or have you just had your first serious chat about whether marriage is something you’re open to? While the proposal may not be in the imminent future – it’s definitely on his mind, and could be on its way soon.

Suggesting You Have a “Pamper” Day

Most men know that getting that perfect engagement ring shot is important. So he may tell you to go and “treat yourself”, “have a spa day”, “get your hair and nails done”. If he’s suggesting you do any of those things, you may have a shiny ring on your finger within the next few days.

Questions About the Future

If your future is becoming increasingly important to him, engagement may be on the cards. If he’s asking questions like:

Where do you see us in 5 years?
Do you want to have children in the future?
How did you like ____’s wedding?
Do you think we’ll spend the rest of our lives together?

then he clearly sees a future with you and hopes you feel the same way too. A proposal certainly won’t be far behind these questions – as long as you’re answering with positive responses, of course.

How A Man Acts Before He Proposes

Let’s be honest, it’s impossible to predict how every man acts before he proposes – because everyone is different. But usually, you will notice at least some change in your man’s behavior in the lead-up to the proposal. Some men may become more needy or anxious. Others may even become agitated and irritable.

Remember, this is a terrifying moment for him, as he plucks up the courage to ask you to spend the rest of his life with him. So if you notice his general attitude change, alongside any of the signs above – he may be about to propose, so you may want to cut him some slack!

Conclusion

While most men will try for the element of surprise, it’s likely you’ll have some kind of “gut feeling” when it’s about to happen. Whether that be a few weeks before, or a few hours before – you’ll just know. I didn’t think I would with my engagement and I was looking for signs everywhere, but it turned out my instinct was the best sign to follow – and I was correct!

I hope this has helped to give an idea on how to tell if he’s going to propose. Do you have any other signs? Let me know in the comments below!

When Do You Have A Bachelor Party?: The Perfect Time

Today, we’re going be answering the question: when do you have a bachelor party? When, you announce your engagement, one of the first questions you’ll likely be asked by friends is “when’s the party?”, and it’s important to plan the party at the perfect time – but when is the sweet spot? We’ll be taking a look today! And other important questions like who pays for the party, and who typically receives an invite.

What Is A Bachelor Party?

If you’re reading this article, you likely already know what a bachelor party is, but if not, it’s a (small or large) gathering of friends and family members to celebrate when a man is about to get married. You may know a bachelor party as a stag do or a buck’s night – all depending on where you’re reading this from!

For a bachelor party, it’s usually only men that receive an invite. However, in more recent years, it’s become increasingly common for female friends to be invited – or even to have joint bachelor and bachelorette parties! It all depends on the couple and what they’re comfortable with.

What Is The Point Of A Bachelor Party?

You may be wondering what is the reasoning behind a bachelor party, and it often symbolizes two things. The first is to wave farewell to the end of a man’s single life, and the other is to celebrate the new journey he’s about to embark on with his new forever partner.

Who Pays For The Bachelor Party?

You may be wondering who pays for the bachelor party, and it’s a simple answer. Whoever is attending the party should pay for themselves. The financial costs do not fall down to whoever is planning the party. Usually, every attendee pays for themselves and etiquette says that all attendees pitch in so the groom pays nothing.

However, if the party is out of town, or requires a plane, the groom is usually expected to make some contribution, particularly if the destination is his choice.

As long as everyone attending is happy with their contribution, that’s the most important point.

When Is A Bachelor Party Held?

The reason you’re here – when should it take place? Before we highlight the perfect time, let’s have a look at when you shouldn’t have it.

Too Early

I know planning the bachelor party is exciting and you’ll likely want to start the experience as soon as possible, but it’s important not to have it too far in advance. The bachelor party is often a great way to really get pumped for the wedding, and if it happens 6 months prior to the wedding – it will lose its magic and the true meaning of a bachelor party will get lost.

Too Close to the Wedding

While it’s tempting to have the bachelor party as close to the wedding as possible, sometimes even the night before – this is not the best idea. In the lead-up to the wedding, there will likely be lots of last-minute planning and you’ll want that time to relax. You also don’t want to be nursing a hangover on one of the most special days of your life!

Another aspect to bear in mind is that attendees may not be able to get time off work that close to the wedding if they’re already taking time off to attend that – particularly if it’s a destination wedding.

Without Planning

You should aim to give the guests at least a month’s notice for the bachelor party; this should be longer if it’s a destination party. This is why it’s important to do some planning, no matter how loosely it is. You’ll want to make sure that everyone the groom wants at the party is able to attend, and that won’t be possible without at least, some planning.

The Perfect Time?

The perfect time is usually 1-3 months prior to the wedding. The most common time is around one month before. It’s close enough to the wedding that the excitement is really starting to build, but far enough away to recover from the party and then look forward to the wedding.

Who Plans The Bachelor Party?

If tradition is important to you, the best man should be the one to plan the party. Or if he needs some help, it falls down to the male friends and family members of the groom to help with any planning. However, in recent years, the groom may like to do the planning himself.

If the best man isn’t a particularly organized person, it may be best to assign some tasks to everyone within the bachelor party group to ensure everything is booked in enough time.

If you’re looking for some bachelor party ideas, you can find some great inspiration here.

Who’s Invited To The Bachelor Party?

It’s really down to the groom to decide how small or large the party is. It’s seen as etiquette to run the guest list by the groom before sending any invites, that way he can make the final call on who receives invites. While some grooms may love a huge party, others may not. You should always have the groom in the front of your mind when choosing who to invite.

Male family members and friends are the most important people to invite to the party. And it’s important to note that anyone who receives an invite to the party, should also receive an invite to the wedding.

Conclusion

I hope this article has helped to answer the question of when the best time is to have the party. And other important questions like who pays and who helps to plan the party. There really are no set rules on how to have the perfect party – you should be led by the groom and what he wants.
