Yellow is a gorgeous color for spring and summer weddings, but finding the right yellow dress takes a little bit of thought. A barely-there butter yellow and other extremely pale yellows are gorgeous colors in person, but sometimes - especially in satin styles that look like classic bridesmaids' dresses - they can photograph as off-white and cream, which can have unintended consequences in photos and with the increasingly judgemental people on social media. Still, a more vibrant yellow dress is always a safe, festive choice for summer, in our opinion. Here are some yellow dresses in all sorts of shades that we love!

Yellow Dresses for Wedding Guests

These are our editor's picks for a collection of yellow dresses that are wedding-guest worthy. Yellow is a happy color for wedding guest attire, especially for daytime weddings in spring or summer. It's also a great color for destination weddings or beach weddings in warm climates.

These yellow dress picks are made with wedding guests in mind, but they can be worn for nearly any wedding event. Some of the more casual styles are perfect for bridal showers.

In colder-weather areas, especially in the fall and winter months, mustard yellow and gold wedding guest dresses are a better choice than the sunny yellow dresses we usually pick for spring and summer. While yellow dresses are having a big season right now, yellow is a color that goes out of style every few seasons, making it sometimes hard to find a yellow dress some years.
