Shortly after you RSVP to attend a wedding, you'll likely start thinking about what to wear. While most wedding invitations include the preferred wedding dress codes, it might be hard to decipher exactly what types of wedding dress codes to-be-weds envision, from rehearsal dinner attire to the wedding day itself. Plus, with the rise of creative wedding guest attire suggestions (like whimsical garden party or tropical formal), you might be stumped when it comes to interpreting what they mean.
