Can You Wear a Baseball Cap as a Wedding Guest?

A baseball cap at a wedding works only if the dress code skews casual or outdoor—garden ceremonies, beach venues, daytime receptions where formality gives way to comfort. Pair it with a Silk Blouse or Little Black Dress to keep the silhouette polished enough for the occasion, letting the cap read as intentional rather than underdressed. The key is ensuring everything else lands on the dressier end so the cap becomes a considered detail, not an oversight.
