Dress Tips For Principal Sponsors Attending a Casual Wedding


Principal sponsors take a special part in a wedding because they stand as the godmothers and godfathers of the wedding couple. They are like the second parents of the newlyweds, so it is important that they would also stand out from the entourage. In looking for a dress for the principal sponsors, it is important to pick ones which are age-appropriate. The sponsors’ outfits need not match the color theme of the wedding. Just imagine if the motif is pink; it might not compliment the sponsor’s age. Instead, choose colors which are subdued, such as cream or off-white.

Another great option would be earthly colors such as brown, maroon and olive green. These colors are very welcoming for the mature people. Or if you want variety, you can match the neutral with the dark, for instance, cream with chocolate brown. Principal sponsor dresses should not necessarily look boring and matronly. It’s just a matter of wearing the right dress, the right accessories and the right hair and make-up.

For the females, dress length should be from knee-length to a few inches above the knee. It should not be shorter because it would look inappropriate, considering the age of the sponsor. The material should be light and comfortable, such as silk or linen. Meanwhile, males can wear the usual tuxedo. And the style of the dress should be simple, following the general rule of casual weddings. If the female principal sponsor is not comfortable with wearing a dress, she can wear a dressy blouse and tailored silk pants. For the accessories, jewelry should also be simple yet elegant. Pearls or diamonds are good choices. In terms of footwear, female principal sponsors can wear platforms or low-heeled closed shoes. As for the male principal sponsors, they can wear patent pumps or oxfords. Boots and slippers are obviously too casual, hence, you should not even consider wearing them for this event.
