The Best Dresses to Wear to a Spring Wedding

Ready to nab the perfect wedding guest outfit for spring 2023? We've found gorgeous picks for every dress code. Seriously, these dresses and jumpsuits will earn you all the compliments. 

1. Blush maxi dress

There's nothing we don't love about this blush pink floor-length maxi. From the allover floral print to the delicate spaghetti straps and sultry leg slit, it's a total showstopper. If there's still a bit of a chill in the air, pair it with a light-colored cardigan or shawl. (Psst, who knew formal spring wedding guest dresses could be so affordable?!)

Lulus Still the One blush pink floral print satin maxi dress, $94, Lulus

2. Fairytale tulle dress

Attending a garden wedding with a vintage fairytale vibe? Regencycore fans will adore this powder blue masterpiece. There's a lot to love about this spring-worthy dress for a wedding guest, from the comfy smocked bodice to the showstopping tulle skirt. Shop sizes XXS to 3X in pastel blue or pink colors.

3. Vintage-inspired midi

Any and all pastel hues are welcome at a spring wedding, including this stunning shade of green. Vintage elements on the bodice give this otherwise streamlined silhouette unique charm. A crisscross detail helps to define the waist, while a lace trim draws attention to the neckline. This creates the perfect opportunity to show off a subtle piece of fine jewelry like a pendant necklace.

4. Silk floral slip dress

Of course, pastels aren't the only route you can take when it comes to finding a suitable spring wedding guest dress. In fact, darker colors like navy and black are very much still in fashion if the dress code commands formal evening wear or black tie attire. Dainty florals add playful (and seasonally appropriate!) pops of color to this elegant ankle-grazing slip.

5. Sleeveless jumpsuit

There's no reason you can't swap out a dress for a jumpsuit or pant suit instead. Ultimately, you should wear what you feel most comfortable in (as long as it's formal enough for the dress code). This coral halter-neck jumpsuit feels fancy enough for a daytime cocktail wedding, especially when paired with shiny metallic accessories. It's also a great pick for beach celebrations (and you won't have to worry about the ocean breeze creating an unwanted Marilyn Monroe moment).

6. Bold pink slip dress

While rich, saturated hues aren't normally a spring staple, this year is an exception (and you have Barbiecore to thank for it). Even Pantone selected a passionate shade of magenta as the 2023 Color of the Year, so you can expect to see bold pinks and reds trending for the foreseeable. The semi-sweetheart neckline and simple spaghetti straps would go beautifully with a statement necklace or shoulder-duster earrings. 

Reformation Marguerite silk dress in Flambe, $298, Reformation

7. Wide-leg pastel jumpsuit

How's this for a statement spring wedding outfit? The ruffled bodice, strapless neckline, and wide-leg trousers give this mint green jumpsuit serious wow factor. Skip any over-the-top accessories—this stunner speaks for itself.

This glamorous yellow maxi dress embraces the celebratory vibe of the spring season as the days get longer, brighter, and more lively. 

Lulus Dreamy Romance mustard yellow backless maxi dress, $92, Lulus

We don't care what Miranda Priestly has to say, the florals on this spring wedding guest dress really are groundbreaking.

Better yet, it's available in a variety of inclusive sizes, including petite and plus-size options. Play up the Barbie theme by adding accessories in signature hot pink. A velvety pair of block heels or strappy heeled sandals will look equally stunning.

There are so many options when it comes to dresses to attend a spring wedding. This streamlined midi would be a versatile addition to your wardrobe.

17. Sparkly floral gown

Who said you have to leave the sequins in winter? Spring wedding guest outfits can sparkle too—it's all about finding the right balance. While a bold red or silver sequin gown feels a little too festive for nuptials in March, April, and May, a sequin gown with a pastel floral print is right on the money. This loose-fitting silhouette comes in at the waist for a comfortable fit that's still flattering. And if sequins aren't enough to match your statement-making style, batwing sleeves add one final dramatic touch. 

ASOS EDITION curve floral print sequin wrap midi dress, $325, ASOS

18. Ruffled midi dress

Nordstrom has lots of cute spring dresses for weddings, like this pretty floral midi. An asymmetrical hemline, faux wrap skirt, and ruching at the waist create a fun, feminine silhouette. While the high neckline may not lend itself to a statement necklace, you can take advantage of the high-low hem to show off your favorite formal footwear. 

Julia Jordan floral print flutter sleeve midi dress, $129, Nordstrom

19. Airy maxi dress

Looking for a long spring dress for a wedding? Here's a sweet and simple gown that'll come in clutch for years to come. The flowing Georgette fabric creates a romantic silhouette that's lightweight to boot (bye-bye, sweaty legs). 

Lulus Thoughts of Hue light gray surplice maxi dress, $92, Lulus

20. Layered asymmetrical midi

Blue is a great color no matter the season—but the intensity of the shade you choose matters. For spring weddings, stick with lighter tones (think: dusty blue, sky blue, or periwinkle). This soft-to-the-touch midi dress blends bright aqua with purplish periwinkle in an abstract floral print. It's an excellent transitional piece between spring and summer if you're looking for a dress to wear to a wedding in May or June. 

Komarov floral tiered charmeuse and chiffon midi dress, $318, Nordstrom

21. Chic sweater dress

Lilac is a great color if you're searching for a dress to wear to a March wedding. This light purple hue takes a step away from winter's rich metallics and jewel colorways, but it's still a cool tone that feels akin to the colder months of the year. The result? An excellent transitional piece that toes the line between winter and spring. But that's not all: This chic outfit is also a sweater dress, which should help you keep warm in those early (and sometimes chilly!) days of spring.

22. Casual midi dress

There's no such thing as too many floral wedding guest dresses when it comes to spring nuptials. And if you're in the market for a casual spring dress, you don't want to scroll past this stunner. A smocked bodice and soft fabric keep it from feeling overly dressy. The sweet wildflower pattern tributes blossoming spring blooms, but it's the tiered skirt that's the icing on the cake.

23. Lace overlay dress

This midi wedding guest dress is perfect for spring thanks to its pale pink hue and romantic lace texture. The classic figure-hugging silhouette and strapless design create a streamlined look that lets the lace do all the talking.

Petal & Pup Cordelia dress in Blush, $84, Petal & Pup

24. Faux leather minidress

If you want a fitting spring wedding guest dress but don't identify with traditionally feminine and floral styles, don't worry. There are other ways to embrace the season that don't involve ruffles, flowers, or layers of tulle. The simplest thing to do is start with a color. Lighter shades typically rule the spring and summer seasons, while bold and dark colors feel more at home in the fall and winter. This olive green skater dress is an ideal option and it has a trendy faux-leather finish.

28. Classic LBD

If it's a spring wedding cocktail dress you need, look no further. While dark hues are typically better suited to fall and winter, black is the exception that works year-round. For formal and cocktail dress codes, you really can't go wrong with a simple LBD (read: little black dress). Think of this understated crepe dress as a blank canvas for your spring wedding guest look. How you accessorize will determine the level of formality.
