Looks for the Spring Season

One of the hardest parts of planning for someone else’s wedding, as a guest, is figuring out what to wear. You might find yourself reading, and re-reading, the dress code a couple of times before you start strategizing the perfect look. Whether you want to grab something from your closet or hit the racks at your favorite store, dressing for a spring wedding means tapping into fun colors, prints, styles, and more.

Take a look at these 10 spring 2023 wedding guest looks for inspiration this season.

Florals

Not only are the flowers blooming outside, but on dresses this spring too. If you’re looking to wear something that stands out and truly represents the season, pick a floral print dress or skirt and top as your go-to outfit for a wedding this spring.

Lace

One timeless fabric that gets extra attention during spring is lace. Finding a dress with lap cap-sleeves or a lace overlay, is a fun way to enhance your look as a wedding guest.

Pastel Colors

'Tis the season of pastel colors! Not only will you see pink, mauve, baby blue, mint green, peach, and lavender all over decorations for this season, but also as the colors of clothes that are front and center inside your favorite stores. If you want to take a break from wearing more neutral or traditional colors to a wedding (black, navy, maroon), pick a pastel colored dress instead.

Knee-length Dresses

With the spring season comes breezier and warmer weather. As you say goodbye to your winter coat, you can also stick your floor length gowns and shawls back in your closet and go with a knee-length dress instead. A big perk of this kind of look is that you can accessorize a knee-length dress with colorful shoes or bright accessories.

Off-the-Shoulder Looks

When it comes to the style of your dress, if you want to go with a look that accentuates your neck and arms, pick an off-the-shoulder dress, which is perfect for warmer spring weather. Plus, if you already have a necklace or pair of earrings you adore, an off-the-shoulder look can help complement those statement pieces.

Satin Over Chiffon

In 2023, satin dresses will remain one of the most popular looks for both bridesmaids and wedding guests. If you’re looking for a lightweight fabric that moves with you throughout the night, go with a satin dress that won't hold you back or make you sweat like a heavy chiffon gown.

Wrap Dresses

Looking for a dress that fits well with so many different body types? Try on a wrap dress for a spring wedding. These types of dresses come in all different lengths, fabrics, and patterns and are perfect for an outdoor or backyard celebration.

Ruffles

One big trend that comes out to play in spring are dresses with ruffles. This dress feature can often be seen in the mid-section, bottom, or sleeves of the dress and is the perfect way to give your look a subtle yet fancy flair.

Pleats

Give your spring dress an elegant and romantic twist this season and go with a pleated skirt dress. This look is often fitted on the top and has a pleated bottom that gives the dress a flowy feel.

Pantsuits

Not interested in wearing a dress to a wedding this season? Go with a pantsuit or jumpsuit instead. You can find styles that are ankle length or sleeveless, which work well with the temperature of this season.
