The slush is melting, hibernation is over, and everyone is ecstatic about the concept of a few rays of sun: There’s a lot to celebrate about spring’s arrival. And while we may still be a few months away (and, depending on where you live, currently engaging in an uphill battle with the aforementioned sludge), anyone with a spring wedding in their calendar should start prepping now. Do you have your hotel booked? Your gift ordered? What about your outfit? That last one is where we come in—if you’re still browsing through wedding guest dress options, we pulled together five outfit ideas to inspire your ceremony look.

Vogue’s Guide to Spring Wedding Guest Outfits

For your guest appearance, you could go classic with painterly floral prints or pastel colors inspired by the shades of the season. Or, try a bolder spin by incorporating some rich hues: Plum purples and golden mustards, when done in floaty, ethereal silhouettes, can still feel light and appropriate for a springtime wedding. If your event is in an area not quite warm enough for bare arms, choose something long-sleeved or drape a silk pashmina as an elegant outer layer—and when in doubt, consult the dress code, as a black-tie wedding and a backyard wedding have a very different look.

Ahead, five spring wedding guest outfit ideas to spin off for your upcoming fêtes.

Florals for Spring

Garden fêtes, backyard nuptials, dreamy countryside destinations… wherever the wedding, you can’t go wrong with a flowery print for this time of year. Zimmermann’s maxi dress definitely looks the part, complete with a pastel palette and ruffled tiers of silk-blend crêpe de chine. Keep jewelry minimal to let the pattern shine. These textured studs from Paris brand Agapée feature a green gem that ties perfectly with the dress.

Polished Draping

Take your cues from the lush green of the season with this pretty sage midi dress. It’s a tonal fit for Reformation’s slingback heels, and when dressed up with Sophie Buhai’s evening bag and an onyx-like barrette, makes a stylish option for a daytime wedding.

Saturated Separates

There’s nothing casual about this plum-hued set from Abadia. With precise draping and a luxe satin fabric, it’s a great option for a formal or cocktail dress code. We like it styled with Staud’s ochre kitten heel mules for a sophisticated city reception.

A Formal Affair

Black-tie weddings call for floor-length gowns, at a minimum. This is your chance to go all out: a pair of classic diamond stud earrings, a silk scarf to wrap as a pashmina, a sculptural silver hair pin for an elegant touch. Pair those with TWP’s strapless dress, a fluid silhouette with metallic thread woven throughout for a faint shimmer.

That 70’s Show

A boho mini dress, sky-high platform heels, oversized gold hoops… for a city hall ceremony or something more casual, embrace shorter hemlines with a retro spin. Staud’s turmeric-colored dress is the perfect floaty number for dancing the night away.
