How to Be the Best-Dressed Wedding Guest This Spring:
5 Spring Wedding Guest Dress Looks That Won’t Let You Down
With the arrival of the spring season comes wedding invitations in your mailbox. Whether attending one or several, you will want to arrive in a stylish and stunning dress without outshining the bride or bridal party.
For many, picking out a showstopping look can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. Below are five simple tips for choosing spring style wedding dresses for guests that won’t lead you down the wrong aisle.
FIVE.
Foolproof Fancy Florals
Floral pattern dresses are a spring and summer wedding essential and can even squeeze their way into fall. You can never have too many gorgeous floral print dresses like the Selena in Berry. Her knotted waist creates a floral printed wrap dress with a figure-flattering effect. Not only are they ideal spring or simple summer wedding guest dresses, but you’ll also be able to wear them throughout the season and beyond. Don’t forget to grab a lightweight sweater, or shawl like our Ruth Cardigan, for warmth once the sun sets, and finish the look with nude strappy sandals or cute flats.
Another reason to flock to florals is the ability to find a print that speaks to you and your style. Floral dresses are available in everything from shades of pink, like Stevie Floral Sheath Dress, and pastels to vibrant bolds, delicate daisies, or dark backdrops. You can find white floral dresses (but don’t wear them to the wedding of course) and other floral prints that paint a picture of your unique personality.
FOUR.
Choose a Classic Cocktail Dress
You can’t go wrong with elegant dress to impress dresses, especially for an evening, cocktail, or formal affair. Keep it classy and vintage-inspired with something shimmery with sheer details like the Stevie in Pale Nude. Accessorize with fine jewelry or metallic earrings and a simple pendant necklace. Complete the look with statement heels or comfortable flats if you plan on dancing the night away (and who doesn’t?).
Any color will do, except consider choosing an alternative color to white, as you don’t want to risk upstaging the bride. Dark, dramatic colors like navy sequins like the Grace Sequins Lace Dress or bright, bold fuchsia like the Sari will make you stand out on the dance floor. Another great choice is Carrie, a wrap dress plus size or regular size is a figure-flattering look with a flair that works perfectly for any wedding, any season.
THREE.
Stress no further, we have the perfect graduation outfit for you!
Like florals, dresses like Dorothy and her pastels scream spring and summer wedding seasons. A plus size sheath dress in a pretty pastel is feminine and flattering on all figures. Whether you prefer pink, periwinkle, lavender, or sea green, pastels are perfect for spring weddings and all other events. Consider collecting pastel dresses for a special occasion, brunch, church, or wear them to work. You could even wear them when you feel like dressing up in something other than jeans or shorts.
TWO.
When in Doubt, Wear Black
Not everyone enjoys wearing a dress, and that’s okay! You still have plenty of dazzling, desirable options to earn you a placeholder for being a best-dressed guest. Consider sophisticated jumpsuits such as Sara if you’re looking for something outside the dress. You can complete your look with accessories and shoes. Consider a clutch, elegant jewelry, and strappy high heels for a powerful and unforgettable presence.
Whether you opt for floral prints, classic cocktail dresses, pastel shades, trusty black, or even a sophisticated jumpsuit, you'll be dressed to impress and ready to celebrate love in style. Find the dresses you need for spring and summer wedding seasons here.

The Non-Dress Disclosure Statement
The guidelines for what to wear as a graduation guest are much less specific, however, like with any event, there are a few things to keep in mind. To ensure you have a smooth flowing and fun day, let us help you out with some simple tips!
1. It’s always better to be overdressed than underdressed. - You will always feel better being a little more dressed up than dressed down. Leave the jeans at home! Go with a nice dress, jumpsuits, or fun co-ord set.
2. Wear something comfortable - Graduations are usually pretty long, so you will want to wear something comfortable. Try to steer clear of anything heavy, itchy, or too tight!
3. Let the graduate shine - It’s their special day, not yours, so try not to overshadow the most important person. Try to keep your outfit a little more understated. However, you can still wear colors or prints, just leave the sequins and extra bold pieces to the graduate.
