5 Foolish Wardrobes
Selected not for the clown noses (a circus themed wedding gives this prop quirky charm), but instead for the second ensemble to the left. Adorable dress (I actually own it), but the pattern's scale and contrast is too bold amongst the humble neutrals and low-notice solids.
One ensemble never suits all. Buying a uniform outfit for every member forces ill-advised compromises.
The liberal legs, decolletage, and shine on Mrs. Claus distract from the remaining members.

Ensure that all photographed hues have equal weight. The bright teal in this set outshines the rest of the backdrop and participants. Still an adorable family and a lovely family picture.
Few families (short of sweet beyond saccharine Shayce Nicole and her quartet) could carry this styling off without appearing costumed. The remainder of us need be wary of extreme trends, for they could betray us several years down the road.
