Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the appropriate dress code for a wedding guest?
Dress codes can vary depending on the formality of the wedding. For formal weddings, you should opt for long dresses or dressy cocktail dresses. For semi-formal weddings, you can wear a cocktail dress or a dressy skirt and top. For casual weddings, wear a sundress or a jumpsuit. Make sure to check the invitation or ask the couple for any specific dress code guidelines.
What should I wear to a winter wedding as a guest?
For winter weddings, you'll want to choose an outfit that will keep you warm and comfortable. Consider wearing a dress with long sleeves or a heavier fabric like velvet or wool. You can also opt for dressy separates like a skirt and sweater or dress pants and a blazer. Don't forget to accessorize with a wrap, scarf, or coat to stay warm during the ceremony and reception.
Can I wear a non-traditional color to a wedding as a guest?
While it's important to avoid wearing white or anything that might upstage the bride, there are plenty of other colors that are appropriate for wedding guest outfits. However, it's a good idea to avoid wearing anything too flashy or attention-grabbing. When in doubt, stick with classic colors like black, navy, or jewel tones. Additionally, if the wedding has a specific theme or color scheme, it's a good idea to try to incorporate those colors into your outfit.
Can you wear a short dress to a wedding?
Yes, you can wear a short dress to a wedding, as long as it is in line with the dress code and is appropriate for the venue and level of formality of the wedding. To wear a short dress for more formal weddings, choose a dress that still looks elegant and sophisticated.
Can I wear a black dress to a wedding?
Traditionally, black dresses are considered inappropriate for weddings, however, with the ever-evolving modern fashion etiquette, wearing a black dress to a wedding has become generally acceptable, especially for evening or formal events.

Wedding Guest Dress Codes
Weddings often come with a dress code, which can make choosing the right guest wedding dresses a bit challenging. It's important to pay attention to the dress code specified on the invitation as it will give you an idea of what's expected. Here are a few wedding dress codes that you can try out:
- Black-tie Wedding Attires: Black-tie events are formal affairs, and the dress code requires guests to dress in their best attire. For women, this means that elegant wedding guest dresses include floor-length gowns or formal cocktail dresses.
- Cocktail Wedding Guest Outfits: Cocktail attire is less formal than black-tie dresses for wedding guests, but still requires guests to dress in formal attire. The ideal dress for wedding guests at cocktail weddings is a knee-length or midi dress.
- Beach Formal Dresses: Beach formal is a relatively new dress code that's popular for destination weddings. A maxi dress or a floral summer wedding guest dress is appropriate for this occasion.
When determining the appropriate dress code for a wedding, again, consider the time of day, location, and theme of the event. If you're still unsure, it's always better to err on the side of caution and dress a bit more formally than underdressed. At SunsetFashionLA, we have a wide selection of formal wedding guest dresses to make sure you're dressed to impress at any wedding.
Various Dress Styles That are Suitable for Wedding Guests
When it comes to finding the perfect dress for a wedding, it's important to choose a style that complements your body type and personal style. For example, if you have an hourglass figure, a sheath dress may be a great choice for you. If you're more of a boho chic, a flowing maxi dress may be more of your style. At SunsetFashionLA, we offer a variety of dress styles to suit any body type and personal style. Here are a few dresses for wedding guests that are suitable:
- A-line: A-line dresses are a classic choice of dresses to wear to a wedding, and they're suitable for most body types. These wedding guest dresses are fitted at the top and flare out at the waist, creating a flattering silhouette.
- Sheath: Sheath dresses are more form-fitting and typically fall just above the knee. They're a great choice of dress for wedding guests who want to show off their curves.
- Wrap Dresses: Wrap dresses are versatile wedding guest dresses, and they work well for both formal and informal events. They're comfortable and flattering for a range of body types.
Popular Colors and Fabrics for Wedding Guest Dresses
Choosing the right color and fabric for a guest wedding dress can be just as important as choosing the right style. It's important to consider the wedding season and venue. For example, pastel colors and chiffon fabrics are perfect for spring and summer weddings, while darker colors and heavier fabrics work well for fall and winter weddings. Additionally, the venue can also influence the dress color and fabric. For a beach wedding, lightweight and flowy fabric like chiffon would be more appropriate than heavy fabric like velvet. Here are a few popular colors and fabrics for wedding guest dresses:
- Pastels: Pastel colors, such as blush, mint green, and lilac, are a popular choice of spring dresses for wedding guests. They're soft, romantic, and perfect for spring and summer weddings.
- Florals: Sexy wedding guest dresses in floral prints are a classic choice for outdoor and garden weddings, and they're available in a wide range of colors and styles in our online store.
- Chiffon: Chiffon is a lightweight and flowy fabric that's popular for dresses to wear to a wedding. It's perfect for warm weather and outdoor weddings.
Tips for Choosing the Right Dress for You as a Wedding or Bridal Guest
Embracing your personal style and choosing a dress that makes you feel confident, elegant, and respectful at the wedding celebration is important, however, there are some other tips you need to know when selecting women’s wedding guest dresses. They include:
- Familiarize yourself with the wedding theme and dress code: This will help ensure that your dress aligns with the overall ambiance and level of formality of the wedding. While modest wedding guest dresses are the go-to for cocktail and evening weddings, sexy wedding guest dresses are suitable for beach weddings.
- Opt for colors that complement the wedding color palette: Most weddings have a color palette or ‘Color of the Day’, which is usually indicated on the wedding card. Dressing in the same theme signals that you were thoughtful of the couple’s color preference. And even if you won’t stick to the theme, avoid wearing white to avoid overshadowing the bride. But if you must wear white, stick to off-white and ivory shades.
- Choose comfort while picking style: The best wedding guest dresses are the ones that allow you to move and dance comfortably.
- Pay attention to the season: Consider the weather conditions when selecting your dress fabrics. The fabric you pick should be appropriate for the weather; for instance, buy a breezy chiffon dress for summer or a rich velvet gown for winter.
- Consider the venue when making your pick: The dress you choose should suit the wedding location. For a beach wedding or garden ceremony, a midi wedding guest dress in floral prints or pastel shade would be ideal. While for an elegant ballroom wedding, long wedding guest dresses are advisable.
- Coordinate your accessories thoughtfully: The shoes, jewelry, and clutch you wear should enhance and complete your overall look. Avoid wearing overly flashy accessories, to allow the focus to remain on the couple.
Importance of Accessorizing Appropriately for a Wedding
Accessories can elevate any wedding guest dress and add a touch of personality to your overall look. However, it's important to accessorize appropriately and choose the ones that complement the dress and the occasion. Here are a few tips on how to choose the right accessories that pair with women's wedding guest dresses:
- Shoes: Choose shoes that are comfortable and appropriate for the occasion. If you're attending a formal wedding, opt for closed-toe pumps or sandals with a low heels. If you're attending a beach wedding, consider a pair of wedge sandals that won't sink into the sand.
- Jewelry: Keep your jewelry simple and elegant. A pair of statement earrings or a delicate necklace can add a touch of glamour to any wedding guest dress. Avoid wearing anything too chunky or distracting that may take away from the dress.
- Handbag: Choose a clutch or a small handbag that compliments your dress. Avoid carrying a large bag that will look out of place at a formal event.
