What to Wear to a Destination Wedding at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen

Destination beach weddings are the perfect opportunity to show off your fashion sense, your curves and have fun with your wardrobe for the big day. Leave the boring formal frocks at home, a Villa la Joya wedding is your chance to GLOW and play with colors and silhouettes that show off all your best assets. 

First off, think fabrics, LIGHT fabrics. The heat and humidity in Playa del Carmen are not satin friendly, really. Think chiffon and silk and cotton voile, fabrics that flow in the breeze and let your skin breathe. Not only is it more comfortable in the heat, but flowy fabrics in the ocean breezes look incredible in photos! Give us a twirl!

What to wear to a beach wedding in Playa del Carmen

Bring on the colors and patterns! Make it bright and fun and use the tropical vibes as inspiration. Some couples like to set a dress code and ask for “all-white” for example, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS, you don’t want to be in lemon yellow in a crowd of white. Speaking of white, unless it is requested, obviously you’ll want to avoid white dresses, don’t be that girl. While black is totally chic and slimming, it may prove to be too hot in tropical climates, but you do you! You’ll want to buy a dress you will wear again and again, careful shopping will add a beautiful new piece to your wardrobe for other occasions.

This is a chance to show off that beach body you’ve worked so hard for, show some skin with a sexy halter or backless dress, ideal for a destination wedding at Villa la Joya. Long flowy maxi dresses are light and fantastic for dancing the night away. Avoid styles that restrict your movements like tight skirts or anything too tight on the shoulders, you’re going to get your groove on and get down and get your hands up, make that fashion comfortable!

Beach wedding fashion ideas: Shoes! We all loooove shoes!

There are a few things to consider when shopping for shoes for a beach wedding. It’s going to be hot, there will be times where you may have to stand for a long while. You may be walking on sand or uneven surfaces, you are going to DANCE and you want your legs to look amazing. A pair of sexy, strappy, spiked-heeled sandals are definitely in order, but you may want to bring a sweet pair of flats for dancing or difficult terrain. If you are going to show your toes, be sure to enjoy a good pedi before the wedding and be sexy from head to toe.

Accessorize with sparkle and bling! Catch the sunlight on jewels that shine and the sparkle of silver and gold are always appropriate for a beach wedding. You’ll want to invest in a fabulous purse of course, make sure you have room for everything you need like tissues for crying and lipstick for touch ups.
