Winter Wedding Guest Dresses and a Wedding Recap
The Rehearsal Dinner
The rehearsal dinner was held Saturday night at The Olde Pink House in Savannah. If you have not been to this historical restaurant, I highly recommend it. The food is fantastic, and you will be given a brief history of the mansion-turned-restaurant that dates back to 1771. It’s reported that the owner of the home James Habersham held secret meetings that helped secure the independence of the 13 colonies from England.

Christian (my youngest son) and I each gave Andrew a toast with a slight roast, and we finished the night by meeting Andrew’s friends at McDonough’s, who had flown in from near and far. I wore a Faux Leather Dress (old, similar here, here, and here) with a Leather Blazer (old, similar here, here, and here) and slipped into a pair of block heels with patterned black hose.

The evening was a true delight, and we were surprised with a serenade at the end of the evening with “Going to the Chapel” by a fantastic singer.

Wedding Day
What can I say about the wedding itself other than it was a beautiful day, beautiful bride, and beautiful ceremony and reception. Honestly, the day and evening couldn’t have been more perfect. Yes, I picked the Mother of the Groom dress that was part jumpsuit and a whole lotta chic. I received so many compliments not only at the wedding but also when I posted a small recap on social media.
The dress is from Alexia Maria, a brand that carries many options for formal wear. I chose crystal slingbacks and wore crystal drop earrings for the ceremony. When it was time for my mother/son dance, I slipped into a pair of Christian Louboutin sneakers that are absolutely FUN and helped me dance the night away!

Thank you, Suzanne! It was a beautiful day in every way!
Oh Beth everything looked so beautiful. I loved your mother of the groom dress!! Stunning. You were drop dead gorgeous. How lovely to have the rehearsal dinner at The Old Pink House in SAV. Where was the wedding held? I’m just north of you in Bluffton, SC. What a beautiful area (wherever it was) for a wedding. And I’m so happy the weather was perfect (unlike yesterday). Your pictures are so beautiful. It is so nice to see the boys and their wives. You have a lovely family. Thank you for sharing your beautiful memories with us.
Thank you! I absolutely loved my MOG dress. The wedding was held at Wilmington Plantation and the day and evening went off as planned.
How lovely to see such a special day. Your ideas for so many beautiful dresses are really helpful. Warmly, Jane
(Heading to sun from the cold north, perhaps you have posted ideas for clothes for warm winter getaways before?)
There are always so many requests for wedding guest dresses so I’m happy to hear the post was helpful.
No, I haven’t posted any outfits for a warm destination getaway. Stay tuned.
Congratulations Beth and to your son and new daughter in law!! What a beautiful day !!
Thank you, Francesca! We couldn’t have asked for a better day in every way.

Just stunning Beth! And your sons are so handsome! Lucky you to have a few females in your life now!
I have two sons, and I’m waiting for some DIL’s! I think I’m a ways away though! Oh well.
The wedding looked wonderful.!
I wish I had a winter wedding this year. Last year I had a NYE wedding, and would have been “all over” the shoes you’re showing!
Aren’t these crystal slingbacks gorgeous? I hadn’t heard of the designer before I purchased these but they’re now on my radar.
DIL’s are in your future! Hangeth thou in There!
Beth, you look simply Marvelous in your gown! Your family looks so happy and gorgeous in all the photos. Thanks for sharing. Glad everything went well the entire weekend. You have a wonderful family!
Thanks, Janet! I am truly blessed with a wonderful family! Happy New Year!
Absolutely stunning in your mother of the groom dress. What a beautiful family you have! 3 handsome sons and now 3 lovely daughters in law..
I am so blessed with three amazing DIL’s! God is good!
Congratulations Beth on your son and DIL’s wedding! Thank you for sharing the beautiful pictures! What a stunningly beautiful venue!
My husband and I had a wonderful dinner at the Olde Pink House. We sat down in a lower area (basement area) but it was beautiful. The wedding was beautiful. Congratulations on a new daughter-in-law!
