Weddings are officially back in full force, with many of our 2022 calendars packed with postponed ceremonies. While I'm looking forward to celebrating with loved ones, I'm also stressing about how many wedding guest outfits I'm going to need this season. I typically tailor my wedding guest look to the dress code, location, and vibe of the event—think fun and floral for an outdoor ceremony or sleek and sophisticated for a ballroom affair. This ensures I'm following the theme, but it can also make shopping for the perfect dress within those parameters that much harder.
With so many ceremonies on the calendar, I've been scouring the internet for the best wedding guest dress options, and I figured I'd share them here since so many of us are probably in the same boat. Thankfully, the fashion gods are on our side, and there are so many chic dress options perfect for spring nuptials right now. Whether you're headed to a beach destination or garden ceremony, your favorite brands have you covered.
I've come across gorgeous options for every occasion—from dreamy silhouettes to delicate details and bold pops of color. Below are the 29 best wedding guest dress options I've seen, all guaranteed to reel in compliments.
