What to wear for a courthouse wedding?
Courthouse weddings are intimate, elegant, and often imbued with personal significance. With a more relaxed atmosphere than a traditional ceremony, they still carry a sense of occasion, and your outfit should reflect just that. Whether you're the bride walking into your forever, or a guest celebrating love, dressing for a courthouse wedding should strike the perfect balance between refined, modern, and meaningful.
What is the dress code for a courthouse wedding?
While courthouse weddings tend to be less formal than religious or large-scale celebrations, the dress code typically falls somewhere between business casual and semi-formal. Think polished, well-tailored pieces that feel celebratory but not overdone. The setting, a formal government building, still calls for tasteful, elevated attire.
Whether you gravitate towards a sleek jumpsuit, a chic courthouse wedding dress, or a tailored white suit, your look should feel intentional and special.
