[sassy_gal18]

Hi hope you could gals help me po.

First time ko aattend ng wedding. Funny yes haha pero nakaattend na ko bata pa ko nun. This time it's a church wedding. Formal daw. Motif nya peach and mint green.

I dom't know what to wear and where to buy. Please give me ideas. Yumg affordable lang sana.

Eto sana gusto ko
Maxi skirt and crop top? Kaso baka marami kapareho or over dress? Under dress?

Salamat.

just avoid the following colors:

white, off-white, or anything that can be mistaken for a wedding dress
black (this is more accepted nowadays but i always avoid black in case the couple is secretly conservative)
the motif-- ayaw ko mapagkamalang abay or gustong maging abay

hindi na ako masyado familiar sa boutiques sa manila but i remember landmark had decent formal dresses. medyo underdressed yung balak mo and i don't know how the crop top will fly with the couple.

Thank you sis sa tip. I think pwede ko pa kaya ipilit yung maxi skirt?

Plan ko pa naman mag black top or white glad you told me. Super clueless kasi ako sa outfit. Super strict pa naman nung bride as she told me  "oh by the way wear something formal ha", lagi kasi nya ko nakikitang naka jeans dahil nga commuter lang ako iwas sa bastusan. Before lagi ako naka dress.

gabi ba yung event? buy an evening gown na mahaba so nasunod na rin yung maxi na gusto mo. never ever wear a crop top to anything formal.

be prepare to spend at least p1500 up kasi wala kang mabibiling gown na maayos at matino for less than that. madami ako na a-aattendan na wedding and kahit sinabi formal attire there are guests pa rin who are under dressed. yung iba nga naka polo and jeans lang. yung iba mukhang galing lang sa mass pag sunday. but siyempre ano naman impression sa kanila?

ako i buy sa forever21, although they are not evening gowns. because i have nice legs and hour glass figure i prefer to show them off kaya i never go for long dresses. knee length kadalsan. kaya kahit formal attire mukha na rin sosyal. i guess you should use your assets din kung ano magandang part ng body mo para kahit hindi mamahalin damit mo hindi mukhang bastusin or cheap. as long as good fit and maganda yung tela carry na din. 

don't splurge on a dress you will only wear once. dyahe din na yun lang formal dress mo kada may ikakasal diba? isipin mo yung other times na pwede mo pa siya masuot.

Salamat sis amethyst.

3pm wedding sa church then reception sa hotel.

Nag tingin tingin ako sa landmark hindi mga masyado maganda ang maxi skirt. Parang so so lang at hindi sya ok saken.

May nakita ko dun din apple and eve,navy blue dress na chiffon dress below the knee yumg haba. Ok sya saken. Medyo pricey. Yun na first choice ko since pwede ko magamit sa office.

Pero hahanap pa rin ako baka sakali,ok ba yung floral maxi skirt o mukang magbbeach?


Salamat sa time mga sis. At sa help po.

hi sassy_gal18!

a maxi skirt is formal enough lalo na kung plain sya, no prints. or pwede ka mag-printed maxi skirt pero make sure your top is formal enough. wag naman yung tipong mag-mall ka lang. i am also ok with a short dress na plain lang din ang color.

pero of course, consider the tela. di porke walang prints ang damit mo e formal na.

karimadon is a good place to find a formal dress. i think last year, nakabili pa ako dun sa Galleria ata which i used for our prenup photoshoot.

alternatively, pwede ka din patahi if you know a good dressmaker.

stalk Instagram (try mga kung ano anong hashtags, #wedding, #weddingguest..baka may ganito) to find out what people wear during weddings

Thank you so much sis kim.

First time ko kasi mag mamaxi kaya pilit ko talaga syang pinipilit haha eyeing at this floral maxi skirt sa ig kasi color black sya tapos print nya rose na kasing laki i think ng fist ng bata. Super gusto ko sya and medyo cheap.

Titignan ko nga yang hashtag tip mo sis. Thank you.

how old ka na ba sis? kung early to mid 20's and kung outdoor/garden wedding you can get away with a floral print pero baka nga parang beachy siya.

try mo mag google ng "maxi dress/skirt for wedding" to get ideas on what will look good. at the end of the day it boils down to what looks good, how much you are willing to spend, and being dressed for the occassion.

[sassy_gal18]

Hi mga sis salamat sa mga tips nyo.

Nakabili na ko last friday sa greenhills last minute. Nakakapansisi kasi nagpunta pa ko dun dahil napaka konti ng choices atvoaulit ulit pa to think na ang lapit ko lang sa makati malls. I ended up buying beige lace to and dark printed maxi skirt.

Nakakapansisis lang kasi mas ok na yun mga nakita ko sa landmark. Out na sa list ko ang greenhills next time.

Pero all in all ok naman yun event nakasabay naman ako sa flow. May mga nakajeans pa nga. Formal na formal yun event mas maraming under underdress.


Salamat sa tips mga sis. 👍👍👍

i suggest wear something that is safe i mean between too formal and less formal, kasi sometimes even if they say na formal other guest naman woud not wear gowns, etc. so safe to say dress siguro na magdress ka na hindi naman casual. choose a fabric na pwede pang formal din or evening event. it would depend din kasi sa relation mo sa groom or bride, kung relative ka close relatve then you wear a gown, pero kung ordinary guest lang siguro sa safer side ka

I'm attending a wedding this June, formal attire daw. I plan to buy at Karimadon, they have nice dresses and long gowns. Pwede pang-wedding

I suggest imatch nyo yung suot ng ibang immediate family nyo. So if naka-formal/long gown sila, then also have similar attire. Para pag nag-family picture kayo e maganda pa din tingnan.
