Is your son or daughter getting married and you are the godmother? Be aware that you will also be the center of attention for the guests. Therefore, we recommend that you note the following tips for being the ideal godmother.
1. ATTIRE
- We advise you to avoid patterns and choose a solid color. If the wedding is during the day, opt for a violet, pearl gray, or sea green, for example. If the ceremony is at night, you can use stronger colors such as bougainvillea, Klein blue, or emerald green.
- We do not recommend very shiny fabrics.
- As the godmother, you have more leeway to wear a long dress if you wish, even if the wedding is during the day.
- Avoid dizzying necklines. Our favorites are round, jewel, boat neck, or a not-too-pronounced V-neck.
2. ACCESSORIES
- The question that often arises, fascinator or mantilla? Choose what makes you feel most like yourself. If you opt for a mantilla, make sure you find someone who knows how to place it, as this is not an easy task.
- If you decide to wear a fascinator, try to make sure it is not too large, not exceeding the width of your shoulders.
- If the dress is more striking, try to make the fascinator more discreet, and vice versa.
- Gloves can provide the elegance you need. The shorter the sleeve of the outfit, the longer the gloves can be.
- A closed heeled shoe or one with an open heel would be ideal.
- As for jewelry, it's better to choose a single, more special piece rather than overloading the look. A brooch would be the perfect accessory.
- Choose a discreet and small handbag.
3. MAKEUP AND HAIRSTYLE
- Natural makeup would be our preference, although, the important thing here is to be yourself.
- An updo is the most elegant way, but if you have short hair, you can wear it down.
That's all you needed to know! Now go and enjoy one of the most important days of your lives
