For destination weddings, I suggest finding clues for what to wear through the location itself. Determine the venue, the climate, and weather for the special day. Looking at the guest invitation card can also offer up some clues. Is the card printed on heavy cream paper and very pretty? Or is it on a lighter weight card and simple print is used? Contacting the bridal party, NOT DAYS OR A COUPLE WEEKS BEFORE THE WEDDING, will be useful. They will know exactly what is expected and might be able to offer a couple of ideas. I would rather call up the maid of honor and ask than rather be nervous and unsure of myself. There's nothing worse than being too under or over dressed.
Here are a couple of wedding guest outfit inspirations.

Do you have a staple outfit you wear to weddings?
What do you prefer: Black Tie or Casual?

I very much prefer black tie weddings, and most of the ones that we attend here are like that where people even wear ball gowns and the like. The destination wedding dress is so pretty, great colour.
That purple dress is great! I prefer a a mix between casual and black tie, but I've never actually been to a wedding yet so I don't really know what I'm talking about haha.

I love them both, they are both equally fabulous! Maybe I have a slight preference for the second one, because I'd love to have that dress in my closet immediately :) Great styling tips!

I always go for casual, at any occasion.
wow, great style collage..love love the dress of course! xo
Lovely lovely! Makes me want to go to a wedding so bad! I've never been to a black tie one, so I'd choose that!
I actually went to a very casual destination beach wedding about a month ago. I prefer black tie-esque or somewhere in-between, but it the very casual one turned out to be quite a lot better than I expected.
Love this! I have a wedding to go to in Bali so this was perfect! Thanks!
Have a lovely day!

Such a fun post! I love the dresses in both looks! I have a dress that I bought for a friend's wedding a few months ago so now I see it as my 'wedding' dress.

i'm in love with the blue dress! and i'd really like to attend a wedding again... but none of my friends are getting married now. well at least i know in april 2013 there is my friend's one and i don't have to decide yet:)
lots of love xx
I definitely prefer casual weddings. I think it allows more people to dress to their personality, because not all people can afford the "perfect" gown. I've also catered and attended many weddings and have found that the more casual weddings are the most fun; more dancing and more drinking.
