Wedding guest from church to late night snack, what to wear underneath

Short answer: A wedding often runs from late morning to late at night, so what you wear underneath has to handle many hours. Choose soft underwear without coarse seams and edges, think about fit, and keep something comfortable for the journey home.

A long day asks for something different than a short one

At a wedding you sit in church, stand for speeches, eat dinner, dance and have a late night snack. That is many hours, and what you wear underneath is felt most towards the end. Choose something that feels good late in a long day, not only when you put it on in the morning.

Underwear that does not cut in

When you sit for a long time, edges and elastic press harder than you expect. Choose underwear with soft edges and no tight waistbands so no red marks appear. See the range of bamboo knickers, made to sit calmly all day.

Think about the clothes on top

If you wear a nice dress or a smart pair of trousers that you already own, your underwear should not show. Choose smooth edges and colours close to your skin or the colour of the clothes. Try the whole outfit at home and see whether anything shows through or presses.

Try everything before the day

Wear the outfit for a whole day, or at least several hours, and notice how it feels. Sit, bend, raise your arms and dance a little. If anything shifts, pulls or rubs, find another solution while you still have time.

Stay dry and comfortable

Dancing, warmth and nerves can make you sweat. Choose fabric that lets moisture escape, and bring an extra pair of underwear so you can change in the evening. It takes a few minutes and makes the night feel much fresher. You will find more among the bestsellers from Copenhagen Bamboo.

The snack and the journey home

When the late night snack arrives, you are often quite tired, and it is nice to put on something soft as soon as you get home. Keep something for the journey home if you change, and hang your good clothes to air rather than stuffing them into a bag.

When you get home

At home after the party it is nice to change into something completely soft. Have a look at bamboo sweatwear if you want something comfortable to fall asleep in, or simply to relax in the morning after.

Care after the party

Wash your underwear following the care label, often at a low temperature and without fabric softener, and let it dry fully. Nice pieces from the day should be aired before they are put away. Then everything is ready the next time you dress up for a long day.
