Our current times have brought a number of changes to wedding planning. Due to COVID-19, implementing new safety precautions, like sanitizing stations and social distancing, has become top of mind for today’s couples.

But another important safety precaution — wedding masks — can be both functional and fashionable. Read on for our rundown of eight stylish masks you and your guests can wear during your socially distanced wedding.

Note: The following cloth masks are not medical grade, and are not considered replacements for surgical masks. Please use these in combination with other CDC safety precautions.

Masks for the Couple

Not only should couples have exclusive face coverings, but being able to wear them long after the wedding day is a big plus. Whether masculine or feminine, choose a mask that looks fab but also feels comfortable, so make sure to give it a test run before the big day. 

1. Hand-Embroidered Face Mask

It would pair perfectly with the delicate nature of a wedding dress. 

These face coverings from Hibiscus Linens are hand-stitched with feminine touches, like a bow and dainty flowers.
