How to look good in wedding photos as a guest?

Start with your outfit. Pick something you feel confident in, not just something trendy. Make sure it is ironed and fits comfortably, because you will be sitting, standing, and dancing. Avoid large patterns or logos that can distract in photos. Solid colours and soft fabrics usually photograph best.

On the day, check your hair and makeup in natural light before the ceremony. Bring a small mirror or ask a friend. When a photographer points a camera at you, take a breath, stand tall, and relax your shoulders. A genuine smile reaches your eyes, so think of something happy or funny. Do not say "cheese" with a forced grin.

In group shots, follow the photographer's directions. They will tell you where to stand and where to look. Keep your hands visible, maybe one on a shoulder or holding a small bouquet, but avoid clutching a glass or phone. If you wear glasses, tilt your head slightly to avoid glare. Most of all, enjoy the moment. Candid photos of you laughing with friends often look better than posed ones.
