Wedding Expo Attire

ArianaB, on September 16, 2017 at 4:45 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 23

My FH and I are going to our first wedding expo! I have heard mixed reviews but honestly we just want to experience it ourselves. What do people typically wear? Its at a somewhat fancy hotel during the day. I assumed causal but figured I would ask WW.

    I saw people in yoga pants and t-shirts at the one I went to

    Its usually just a big convention room with tables for all the vendors set up to show their stuff off, Nothing fancy.

    FH and I both wore jeans when we went. I work a tank top and cardigan (bc it was summer lol) and FH wore a button down but only because he came from work

    Yea, it's super casual. Lots of people wear cheesy Bride stuff, but its not a fancy event regardless of the venue.

    Thank you both! I got nervous when I realized the location. You both have made me feel better!

    There's no dress code. Expos are events where vendors can sell themselves to you. That's all it is. Don't wear anything that you wouldn't wear to a normal vendor or craft show.

    I'm going to one today Smiley smile

    Taking my dad's fiance because she's never gone and I think they are entertaining to go to with friends. It's super casual; I'm in jeans and a t-shirt at the moment and not changing lol

    Have fun!

    I saw people in everything from sweatpants to cocktail dresses. Wear something comfortable, because you will do a lot of walking around. I've also heard the "fancier" you dress, the higher your estimates will be because they think you have money.

    Dressy jeans are usually allowed, but brides are encouraged to dress up. I wore a dress to mine, but saw alot of people in jeans.
