28 Wedding Guest Dresses for Every Type of Ceremony
Depending on the exact location, outdoor weddings often come with unpredictable weather. So reach for a breezy dress that can beat the heat, like Reformation’s organic cotton design, or one that looks lovely with a shawl in the event of an unexpected cool breeze, like Maggy London’s sleeveless dress.
Micro Wedding in the Park
Bring some more romance to the park with a lace, floral, or ruffled dress from designers like Hill House Home and Maygel Coronel.
Black Tie in the City
This is your moment to go all out. Layers of tulle, high-shine fabrics, and scalloped lace make an elevated statement—and designers like Needle and Thread and Self Portrait show us how it’s done.
Wedding by the Beach
Lightweight fabrics like that on Jason Wu’s cotton dress or Zimmermann’s linen design are perfect for those shore-side ceremonies.
Casual Courthouse Celebration
Elevated comfort is the name of the game here. Slip-on an easy-going dress with a polished finish, like Blaze Milano’s blazer dress or Zara’s fuss-free tunic.
Cocktail Affair
Prepare to say “cheers” to the new couple in a fun dress that makes a glamorous statement. Metallics and rich, vibrant colors always work well for those memorable moments as you can see from Ganni’s silver mini and The Attico’s tangerine frock.
Romantic Garden Ceremony
You can never go wrong with a romantic bloom, be it a micro floral frock from LoveShackFancy or a bouquet-covered Erdem dress.
