Rehearsal Dinner Attire with Gordmans

Sharing rehearsal dinner attire in today’s post, in partnership with Gordmans. I’m getting ready for two weddings I’m in this summer!

This summer feels like the summer of 10,000 weddings. I have 9+ through September! I guess turning 25, I’m at the age where many of my friends are settling down (not me- haha). With weddings comes bridal showers, bachelorette parties and rehearsal dinners. All of which are fun, but you may struggle with what to wear.

The first rehearsal dinner I have is in three weeks and I was quickly running out of time to find an appropriate getup. Rehearsal dinner attire definitely depends on the venue, the time and the number of people attending. Here’s my rule of thumb for summer weddings:

Evening dinner, 20+ people, formal entree (like a chicken or steak): Colored dress, heels or wedges, refrain from black or white (a lot of people think black is okay, but in the summer, I’m highly against it)

Lunch time, 20+/- people: Colored ROMPER or dress, flats or wedges, still refrain from black or white

I found this adorable floral romper at Gordmans and I couldn’t have been more excited! The rehearsal lunch is in Texas (#hot) at 11ish on a Saturday, with a Sunday morning wedding the next day. The romper has the perfect casual but dressy feel. I paired it with the sandals, necklace and sunglasses, all also from Gordmans. With the romper being only $15.99, the entire Gordmans look (including necklace, sunnies and sandals) was inexpensive! Gordmans is an off-price retailer which means they buy excess inventory from department and specialty stores, then sell it at greatly reduced prices. For shoppers like us, that means exceptional deals on designer and name brand fashion and home decor. This is why you may find items like my sunnies – which are Oscar de la Renta – for literally $2.99! Gordmans gets new merchandise in every week (on Tuesday, Fremont gals!) and you can find your closest store here.

With nine weddings, I have to be a little more budget conscious, but if you know me, you know I want to wear something new/different to every shower, bachelorette and rehearsal dinner! This romper can not only be worn to the rehearsal lunch in McKinney, but to a bachelorette party lunch before going out later that night or a bridal shower – this is totally acceptable shower attire! Think of Gordmans when you’re shopping for your perfect summer wedding attire and don’t want to break your budget!

Have a great week, friends! Cheers to it being 80 degrees in Nebraska 🙂

  • First off, it IS a hair barrette even though I was originally unsure (see stories). So much fun collaborating with @maurices tonight to shop in Fremont! Snagged this camo poncho top and I’ll be living in it because it’s so soft. I’ve linked everything in my try-on on the @liketoknow.it app or you can shop at this link: http://liketk.it/2JLGw #liketkit #LTKunder50 #LTKworkwear #discovermaurices #maurices #nebraskablogger #springstyle #hairaccessories #collab

  • You can find me here for awhile. Ordering everything on @amazon. Avoiding people. But thinking of those who need good vibes. ⁣ ⁣ Also, does anyone know how to get a rug on carpet to not roll? ⁣ ⁣ #WorkFromHome #RemoteWork #OfficeDecor
  • Hi! Wow. The last time you heard from me was in March. I was looking forward to warmer weather, summer starting and everything that would bring. I wasn’t planning on taking a six-month hiatus from blogging, but somehow, that happened! ⁣ ⁣ Honestly, it’s been good to take a little break from posting on social media, but I’m excited to be back and frankly, I missed you all! I missed the random text conversations with the friends I’ve met through this space, DM-ing about Peloton rides and connecting with so many new people.⁣ ⁣ I’ve now got some catching up
  • Rewarding myself with this @starbucks after swapping out my cabinet pulls. It’s the little things I found these in a 30 pack for $25 on Amazon- wish I had known that at my previous flip when I got them for a lotttt more at Menards! I’ve linked them on the @liketoknow.it app if you’re searching to update yours.

  • Slowly but surely hanging up items in my office. I have lots of decor, but it’s so hard to actually hang things on walls! I was excited when @mapiful reached out to partner with me on styling one of their prints in my home. You can customize your location, and I chose my college town, Lincoln, NE where I have so many good memories. I feel like if I was to move, Lincoln’s a place that will always feel like home If you’re looking for the perfect gift or decorating your walls, check out the link in my bio! #mapifulfamily
  • 1, 2, or 3?! Tonight on stories I’m sharing how to style #fauxleatherleggings with two of my fave gals, @laviebynicole and @embersbeneathme! They’re both big fans of the #spanxleggings and I’m wearing a lil knock off pair from @nordstrom I’ve had for 4 years - still love them SO much! Let me know which look you’d style them with right now... casual, WFH, or out and in the office! As always, everything is linked in the @liketoknow.it app! #spanxleggings #fauxleather #winteroutfit

Back this summer I finally got around to painting this brick fireplace white Swipe to see the before ⬅️ ...goodbye tan! I still want to sand down the mantle to a light wood, but that can wait until after the holidays! #falldecor #brickmantle #mantledecor #nebraskablogger #whitefireplace #whitebrick #homedecor #beforeandafter #homereno #livingroomdecor #familyroomdecor
  • The perfect accent to the space I spend so much time in! This print I partnered with @mapiful to create not only features my favorite city, but reminds me of how things have changed... just 5 years ago I was working my very first post-grad job in #Chicago and now we’re living in a pandemic, #WFH world. Where were you 5 years ago? Crazy times. Right now you can get 20% off when you buy a print + frame at #mapiful! Such a fun holiday gift! Look back a few posts for another print inspiration! #mapifulfamily #framedmap #map #chicagomap #partnership

  • Keeping date nights going during this pandemic has been interesting, especially when your bf is a nurse! Last night we enjoyed dinner at Leadbelly (seriously, SO COVID-friendly & the same owners as my fave place Toast in #LNK) and the Season of Lights in Turner Park at @midtowncrossing! Thank you so much for having us, Midtown! It was a much needed little getaway into Omaha, followed by driving around and seeing more lights. We loved: -132nd & Larimore, which has a few houses set up to radio stations -132nd & Hamilton - Linden Estates Area - which blew me away
  • Two months ago, I tested positive for COVID-19 and during that quarantine period I did a whooooleeee lot of binge-watching. Whether you’re in my situation or you’re just quarantining before you see family for the holidays, I put together an important guide on the blog: Everything I watched in quarantine, ranked from worst-best. #quarantinewatchlist #whattowatch #nebraskablogger
  • 200!! Happy to kick off 2021 with a big @onepeloton milestone! I’ve been loving the #bikethatgoesnowhere for almost 2 years and finally hit this goal. Big thanks to @robinnyc for the back-to-back rides today! I’ve never stuck with a fitness program this long and could go on and on about Peloton. If you’re on the fence, GO FOR IT! I’m sharing my favorite rides and recommendations after completing 200 on the blog today.
