Wedding season is upon us once again, which means your summer calendar is likely already filled with ceremonies of all dress codes. While weddings are always a highlight of the season, they do require a bit of strategizing—not just any dress will do. Whether it's a simple backyard soirée or a grand black-tie affair, you're going to need a dress that fits the bill.
Since I know you're busy this time of year, I decided to do the outfit planning for you. I scoured my go-to retailers for wedding guest dresses to find the best of the best, and 2025's selection does not disappoint. I'm talking about sophisticated necklines, scarf details, sheer elements, and the season's biggest color trends. (I'm looking at you, butter yellow.) Without further ado, below are the best wedding guest dresses from Reformation, Nordstrom, and Revolve.
