    I have read your blog about this at least 10 times before finding this video. It is very helpful. I am going to a wedding in Barcelona in September, but I wanted to prepare in advance. In the US, weddings only last a few hours. The wedding I am attending starts at noon and is expected to end at 3 AM. Would that still be considered a day wedding? Also, are there any types of fabric that are considered tacky or not fashionable in Spain?

      Hello! If the ceremony is at noon that sounds like a day wedding to me! :)

    Hi, thanks for the tips great help. I have a wedding in September in Bilbao, is it appropriate to wear a full light beige linen suit? Im more concerned with the linen suit as I dont know if linen suits are appropriate for Spanish weddings. Thank you.

      Hello! I have never see anyone wear a linen suit to a wedding here. 😅 I might check with the bride and groom on that one.

    Would high platform sandals be ok to a Spanish day wedding. The wedding takes place outside. I am worried about high heels sinking into the grassy ground

      Hello! If the wedding/reception is outside on grassy areas then that might be a good idea. I’ve also used “high heel savers” - I gave them as gifts at my wedding because the reception was in a plaza with cobblestones. Here’s an example m.es.aliexpress.com/item/1005003333638360.html

      @@kimprothro6024 Congratulations! :) I went to a friend's wedding in Aragon a few years ago, the wedding experience was similar to what we see down here in Andalucia. Pronovias is a popular wedding dress brand here so you could look to their spring collection for inspiration on what to wear! I've also got these tips on spring looks (for guests) if that helps: www.katestraveltips.com/2017/04/29/what-to-wear-to-a-wedding-in-spain/

    So can I not wear a long dress for a day wedding? Also, here in nyc you dress to impress. I usually wear gowns to weddings, would that not be appropriate for a Spanish wedding. The women in the pictures you showed seemed to have it toned down lol thanks I’m just super unsure and I don’t want to disrespect anyone or stick out

      Hey Mel, you can wear a long dress to a day wedding. The main thing is to not wear accessories like a fascinator or pamela with a long dress. If you’re still not sure you can check if your outfit will be appropriate with the bride and groom. ;)
