Do not wear your suit until the very last minute. We know you'll be greeting people and living those last few minutes of bachelorhood with your groomsmen. While you're letting it loose with them don't spoil your wedding suit. Please. Therefore, wear it in the end and take your groomsmen to help while you're at it.

12. See What Mother Nature Says!

Thanks to mother nature, our weather changes faster than our mood! So, pick an outfit that sits well with the temperature outside! Can you imagine wearing fur at a summer wedding? Absolutely not!

13. Theme? Colour? What?

Not every wedding ceremony has a theme but for the one which does, stick to it! there is a reason why the engaged couple chose to inform you about the theme. Read between the lines of the wedding invitation and figure out whether or not the wedding guests are expected to follow the overall theme of the wedding or not.

14. Heavy Makeup or Heavy Clothes? Pick One!

When used separately its great but when clubbed together a big fail! Don't go overboard with both of these! If you're wearing a heavy outfit then tone it down when putting on your makeup. And, if you're going for a full blown makeup then wear something light and breezy along with it.

15. Glass Slippers!

Pick a pair of shoes that are stylish, but still comfortable. Not every heel hurts! So, try on a few pairs before you leave for the function and see which one you are most comfortable wearing! What's a wedding if you cannot even dance on the stage. So be comfortable yet stylish!
