Spring wedding season is in full swing and it can be hard to decide what to wear as a wedding guest. Should you choose something short, long, printed, solid, bright colors or neutral? There are so many options out there to choose from so I thought I would share some of my personal looks that would work for a spring wedding as well as other options that would suit a variety of venues and dress codes. When I think of spring wedding guest outfits, I immediately picture lightweight fabrics in soft colors. Delicate details mixed with neutral accents perfectly embody a spring wedding guest look.
I like to err on the side of being a tad too fancy rather than not fancy enough when it comes to weddings. It’s one of the only times you can really get glam so take advantage of it and enjoy wearing something a bit more dressy. I like my dress to be the star of the look and often choose neutral and simple accessories to wear with my wedding guest dress. Here is a roundup of spring wedding guest outfit ideas at all price points.
What To Wear To a Spring Wedding

The cut of this dress is absolutely gorgeous and the color is perfect for spring. The neckline is a bit unique as there is a slight cutaway on one shoulder which is very flattering. I love the midi length of this dress and definitely think it would be a great choice for a cocktail attire dress code as well as something a bit more casual. And I could even see this worn to a beach wedding because of the light green color and mermaid style fit of the bottom portion. I like it worn without a belt but you could also add a delicate metallic or beaded belt to add some texture and color.
What To Wear To An Outdoor Spring Wedding

This is the perfect dress to wear to almost any spring function (graduation, mother’s day, baby shower, wedding, etc). I would opt for a look like this for a garden wedding or something outside. It’s flowy and delicate which is great in the heat though you could always drape a wrap over your shoulders in the evening. It’s not dressy enough for black tie or even cocktail attire, so I would choose this for a slightly more casual wedding or an outdoor wedding.

I actually call this my “wedding guest dress” simply because for me it checks all the boxes of any wedding I could go to. The length makes it suitable for something requiring cocktail attire or for an outdoor garden venue. The embroidering on the dress is so much more beautiful in person and really elevates the entire look. Since it’s not a true pastel or even rich jewel tones, it’s a timeless floral print and color way that would work year round for nearly any season.

So many wedding guest dresses are typically midi length or ankle length but don’t be afraid of opting for a mini dress for a slightly more casual dress code.
This is one of my most recommended wedding guest dresses. One of my friends purchased it for a spring wedding last year and told me it was one of the best dresses she has ever worn. It comes in a ton of colors but this sage dress would be perfect for a springtime wedding.
Florals will always be a great option for spring weddings. I really love the tiered skirt with the bold slit to really make a statement.
A simple slip dress is a timeless silhouette. If pastels are not your favorite, this rich blue is still suitable for spring especially with the large floral prints across the dress. And the price point is great!
I’m not normally someone who loves an all pink look but the details of this dress really work with the vibrant shade.
An absolute stunner for a more formal wedding dress code in a color that could easily be worn all year round. It’s not pastel but still soft enough to embrace spring’s color palette.
This fit and style reads a bit more casual so it’s a wonderful option for an outdoor spring wedding.
Florals done in the most minimal way possible – I absolutely LOVE this dress.
The draping on this gown is stunning and allows for a gorgeous statement earring!
This dress is a bit more bold though not too trendy so it would still be a style that could be worn for years to come. The floral applique is so unique and would be perfect if you love a more whimsical and artistic type of look.
What Colors to Wear to a Wedding in Spring?
Pastels
This is an obvious choice but pastels will always work for a spring wedding.

Not groundbreaking wedding attire but floral prints will forever embody a spring wedding.
