Color Rules
-
The color of your clothing may seem inconsequential, but this is far from true. If the color of your clothing does not match the atmosphere, then you risk being embarrassingly conspicuous. Luckily, there are few limitations for night weddings. Avoid bright colors, such as white, cream or anything else that is associated with daylight. A sound choice is a black dress, such as a cocktail dress. Red, dark blue or any other dark color is suitable as well.
Footwear
-
Considering the formality of a night wedding -- or any wedding -- appropriate footwear is crucial. You have a variety of choices, but the more elaborate the shoe, the better. Shoes like stilettos, high heels or sandals with straps will help augment your appearance. Obviously, make sure your shoes match your clothing. If you wear a black dress, choose black shoes. The same applies for any other color.

Jewelery

Accessories are equally important for a night wedding. Since the occasion takes place in the dark, the key is to wear something vivid and shiny. To adorn your head, choose a crystal tiara that will add sparkle to your look. The same applies for accessories like necklaces or bracelets. For example, you can wear a gold, pearl or crystal necklace. For added glamor, wrap a few similar chains around your arms.
Men's Clothing
-
While women have a variety of clothing choices for a night time wedding, males' options are less varied. Wearing a suit is a matter of common sense, but tuxedos are more suited to night time weddings. This makes it an easy -- albeit more expensive -- choice. Tuxedos have always been associated with evening events. The same can be said for formal dinner jackets. As always, ensure that you wear a dark-colored suit, such as black or dark blue. The same applies to accessories like footwear and neckties.
