Weddings are special, magical celebrations, full of love, laughter and memories. There’s fancy food, exciting entertainment, and stylish outfits; for everyone from the bride and groom to the tiniest guests – your babies.
Finding the right outfit for your baby to wear to a wedding can be tricky, though. You want them to be comfortable, you want the clothes to be practical – you’ll still need to change nappies, after all – and, you don’t want to be spending a month’s wages on their wardrobe when it’ll all end up covered in milk, snot, tears, cake, and goodness knows what else.
There are lots of options for your baby when it comes to an eye-catching outfit; everyone loves a cute baby at a wedding, even if you’re running out to the back of the marquee with them as they cry through the speeches.
We’ve searched the best online retailers to find our favourite baby wedding outfits. We’ve looked at practicality, style, and budget options. One thing we noticed was how many baby wedding outfits feature tiny fiddly buttons, which you wouldn’t thank us for if you’re trying to change a nappy before the first dance ends – so we’ve aimed for the comfiest, handiest, and cutest options.
