When attending a wedding in the enchanting bushveld of Bela-Bela, choosing the right wedding outfit is essential. At Mbizi Lodge, we understand the importance of dressing appropriately for this special occasion. To help you make the best fashion choices, we’ve compiled a list of dos and don’ts for your bushveld wedding outfit.

Choosing a Wedding Outfit

Selecting the perfect wedding outfit for a bushveld celebration can be exciting and challenging. Consider the weather and the natural surroundings when planning your attire. Opt for light and breathable fabrics that keep you comfortable throughout the day. A flowy dress or a lightweight suit is an excellent choice for an outdoor wedding at our lodge.

Accessorise wisely with sun hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. You can also bring a light shawl or jacket for cooler evenings. A pair of comfortable and stylish shoes is essential, especially if the wedding ceremony is outdoors.

What Not to Wear

While a bushveld wedding allows for a relaxed and natural atmosphere, certain clothing items are best avoided. Steer clear of anything too formal or heavy, like ball gowns or heavy tuxedos. Instead, embrace a more casual and chic look that complements the rustic beauty of the surroundings.

Avoid wearing all-black outfits, as they might absorb more heat on sunny days.

Dos and Don’ts for Men’s Attire

For male guests attending a bushveld wedding, consider wearing a light-coloured linen shirt paired with chinos or comfortable trousers. You can roll up the sleeves for a more relaxed look. Complete the outfit with loafers or stylish sandals that are both fashionable and practical.

On the other hand, avoid wearing heavy suits or formal ties. Instead, embrace a more laid-back, natural appearance that reflects the bushveld ambiance. A straw hat or a classic fedora can add a touch of fun and elegance to your ensemble.

Hair and Makeup Dos and Don’ts

Simplicity is key when it comes to hair and makeup for a bushveld wedding. Opt for natural and effortless hairstyles that withstand the outdoor elements. Loose waves, braids, or a low bun are excellent for a bushveld wedding.

For makeup, go for a fresh, dewy look that enhances natural beauty. Waterproof mascara and long-lasting products are essential, especially if the wedding involves outdoor activities or a dip in the pool.
