Wedding Guest Dresses

What's the Best Style of Dress to Wear as a Wedding Guest?

Let’s be real, showing up as a wedding guest comes with its own kind of dress code pressure. You’ve gotta look polished (but not bridal), follow the theme (without losing your own style), and be comfy enough to dance right up until you’re politely being ushered off the dance floor.

From dresses for beach weddings to garden ceremonies and black tie ballrooms, there’s a wedding guest dress for every kind of “I do” at Selfie Leslie. Looking for cute wedding dresses that still feel elevated? Something that turns heads without doing too much? From one-shoulder slips and bodycon dresses to ruffle-trimmed maxis, our collection of wedding guest dresses is full of those just-right options.

Choosing the Perfect Wedding Guest Dress Colour for a Pop of Perfection

We all know the rule. White’s off the table. When it comes to every other shade, though, there’s room to have fun. More brides are setting a mood with all black dress codes, which can make unique wedding guest dresses stand out in the best way. 

If the invite doesn’t get specific, you’ve got options. A soft, pretty pastel dress is always a good move for garden ceremonies and sunshine-filled vows. For something more timeless, a deep blue or rich navy wedding guest dress works beautifully indoors and out. The secret? Choose a color that flatters your skin tone and fits the feel of the day. Instant glow-up.

Wrap Up Your Wedding Guest Look with a Cute Layer

Chilly nights and winter chills don’t press pause just ‘cause there’s a wedding! Just because the temp drops doesn’t mean your cute wedding guest dress has to be hidden under something boring. Throw on a tailored blazer draped over a more structured dress for black tie events, or go for a soft knit cardigan with a floaty maxi at a breezy garden wedding. 

It’s all about balance: keeping warm and keeping the vibe intact. Explore our latest outerwear drop to find that perfect layer to complete the look.
