Question

A person who was invited to a wedding during Sefirat HaOmer – is he allowed to shave in honor of the wedding? And if not, is he at least permitted to slightly trim his beard?

Answer

Shalom u'vracha, 

It is forbidden for guests to shave or trim their beard for the purpose of attending a wedding. 

One may shave and take a haircut on Lag BaOmer.
