We still find ourselves in the strangest time ever, but we cannot imagine a year without weddings! So according to the Yoek team, the dreamy wedding season has officially started.
So yes, we first think of a beautiful, sunny day, celebrating the love of two people starting their life together. And second we think of THE dress, either ourselves in that pretty gown in which we would like to say ‘yes’ (one can dream, right?), or the perfect wedding attire being a guest.
In this blog we will show you several outfits, from being queen for a day, to the mother of the bride or when your best friend is getting married. As a bride, you can choose everything yourself, but as a mother, family member or friend, you probably have a special outfit wish to stick to (a specific colour arrangement or another theme which can be challenging sometimes). Let’s find you the perfect outfit, whatever your role is!
Mother of the Bride (or Groom)
Being mother of the bride or groom, you know on beforehand that the spotlight will be on you as well! And this certainly is a special day for you too, seeing your child taking a next step in his or her life is quite something, so you better look and feel good in your outfit. Let’s make you picture-ready! Ps. Don’t forget your tissues
This is a day to dress up for, so we do love to choose for elegant, voile outfits. It has a sophisticated look, is revealing a hint of skin through the semi-sheer fabric and will be something you can easily put in your wardrobe for other special occasions, being timeless and without a remarkable print.
The only thing you have to decide on is; do you prefer a voile dress, beautifully finished with ruffled details? Or are you more a chic-pair-of-trousers kind of person? With the first you are done in a sec, only needing shoes and accessories (but truly, this is the perfect day to wear a flattering hat!), with the second you need a few extra pieces to your outfit. We have matching voile singlets, with broad shoulder straps or thin straps, in a flare fit or long singlets with either a v-neck or round neck. And since we know mums are not always keen on showing their arms, we have the perfect layers; a short jacket with a waterfall front or a longer voile jacket.
Maid of Honor
Oh dear, you have quite a job! You have probably already organized a bachelor (or bachelorette) party and maybe you have more wedding tasks to fulfil in order to make it a wonderful day. But let’s not forget about your own looks! Since you will probably be close to the bride all day, it will be nice to give you a soft-coloured, pastel look which will look beautiful next to her (most probably) white or cream-coloured dress.
We are in love with the romantic floral print in pastel shades, available in a midi-length blouse-dress, featuring a buttoned front. But if you are not too tall, there is also a shorter, knee-length version, finished with wide sleeves. The material of these pieces is lightweight and has a subtle bubble structure.
Or if you are into ditsy florals, you will love the cute light blue print with yellow daisies, on a lightweight summery fabric. This piece has a sweet, ruffled hem.
The Best Friend
An end has come to finishing bottles of wine while listening to your best friend’s funny date stories. She has found the one! An important day to celebrate her finding the love of her life. Let’s dress you up, beautiful lady!
Since we think you have to stand out of the crowd a bit, being such an important person in her life, we have found you a striking dress! This piece in a vibrant design of brush strokes and pastel stripes is an outstanding choice, featuring a gold button.
Since we know these kind of events can be difficult to find an outfit for, since you will be photographed all day long or because you will meet family members from ‘the other side’, we have a personal shopping service! At Yoek we can make an endless amount of outfits for weddings, so you can contact us at any time to find your special look.
