Summer Wedding Guest Dresses

The summer season is, of course, one of the most popular time for weddings! Finding summer wedding guest dresses that keep the wearer comfortable, stylish, and wedding-appropriate through outdoor ceremonies can sometimes be a difficult task. This shopping guide of dresses for summer weddings is here to help with everything from breezy maxi dresses and sundresses for outdoor daytime weddings, to formal gowns that won’t wilt in summer temperatures!

Shopping sources in this post use affiliate links from retail partners and sponsors, which means we may earn a referral commission in the event that a qualified sale is made.

What to Wear to a Summer Wedding

With this shopping guide, finding wedding-appropriate summery styles should be a cinch! We’ve picked out stylish, light weight dresses that will stand up to summer temperatures, and have you looking lovely!

The usual wedding attire guidelines stay about the same. Female summer wedding guests should wear lighter colors and more informal fabrics for daytime weddings; dress up a little more for evening weddings.  Pick special occasion styles and formal lengths for black tie weddings. Maxi dresses, cocktail dresses, skirts with pretty tops, or jumpsuits can all be appropriate. Just remember not to wear white, or anything too ill-fitting or flashy.  Men can opt for lighter color suits or blazers for daytime; darker suits for evening.

Pretty Dresses for Summertime Weddings

These are our picks for summer wedding guest dresses up to date for the 2018 summer season.
