What shoes should a guest wear to a beach wedding?
I’d recommend cute sandals for women. Delicate sandals in gold or silver with rhinestones are a good choice!
What should guests NOT wear to a beach wedding?
Avoid black dresses, dresses with velvet, and dresses that are too short.
Avoid being TOO casual too. If a dress looks like a beach cover-up then it’s not a good wedding guest dress for a beach wedding.
What color dress should I wear to a beach dress?
Beach weddings are meant to be fun. Go with any bright, cheerful colors (like pink and coral) or pretty pastels like peach, light yellow, or baby blue.
Can you wear heels for a beach wedding?
You could, but I wouldn’t recommend it! You want to be able to walk in the sand, and beach weddings tend to be less formal.
If you want, go for cute wedges instead.

In general, you'll want to choose vibrant colors or pastel-colored floral dresses, and pair them with comfortable sandals or wedges.
