*Outfit Details with affiliate links: Dress (Dezzal) | Shoes (Charles David) | Bag (Chloe)
It’s no surprise that it’s wedding season since it’s the summertime and I am sure most of you have a wedding to attend or have already done so. I actually love attending weddings because I get excitement in picking out my dress even though I’m a guest. I received this beautiful baby blue dress from Dezzal and I think it’s absolutely gorgeous and perfect to wear for a summer wedding. I also think the color matches all skin tones and is easy to accessorize with. The details of the ruffles and black band ties this dress together. I also have to mention the quality of the dress because it is absolutely amazing. If you know me, you know that I’m all about versatility so I love that I can also wear this dress for a family gathering, networking event, fancy dinner, etc.
This dress inspired me to create a blog post where I curated my favorite 5 wedding dresses that are affordable and can be worn for different occasions. It so happened that I chose light, pastel and neutral colors which I think are the best colors to wear for a wedding.
*Disable adblock to view my picks below:
- MSK Pleated Floral-Print A-Line Gown: Maxi dresses are definitely a popular choice to wear as a guest to weddings. I love this style and color because it’s very simple and the florals go perfectly with the warm weather. I often stray away from wearing white to weddings, but this is a light pink color so you can get away with it. Since most of us wear heels to weddings, short girls (like me) can probably pull this off as well!
- Parker Lorenzo Dress: This dress is causal and fun and can be worn all year round. I also think this dress is perfect for those who don’t want to get too dolled up so this is probably be more appropriate for a causal, down to earth wedding rather than a fancy one.
- ASOS Lace Panel Midi Dress: I knew I had to include this dress as one of my 5 looks because it’s very angelic and chic. I love the light turquoise color along with the gold lace in the front. Since this is midi length, this is perfect for those who want to go for a more relaxed but chic look.
- TopShop Placement Flower Midi Dress: I am absolutely in love with this dress and it’s probably one of my favorite out of the bunch. I think this dress is such a pretty lavender color and the details are gorgeous. The high neck gives off a sophisticated look so I would opt to put your hair in a bun with nice dangling earrings. I know some people might not be a fan of tight dresses for fa wedding but since this is midi length, this will make you look classy.
- Hope and Ivy Midi Dress: I guess there’s a theme going on and it’s midi dresses! You definitely want to play it safe when attending a wedding since you’re a guest and don’t want to call too much attention to yourself. This dress is perfect for those who want to be more conservative. The open back gives more details but it’s also very subtle, which I love!
Let me know if you have any weddings coming up and which dress you like the most!

With wedding season upon us it's hard to find that perfect dress that no one else will have. I love this mint green dress that you're wearing. The color is refreshing and the style is so on point. The dresses you picked are amazing too. I would totally wear dress #2 and dress #5. xoxo, Christine

Thank you Marcy! I love shopping for wedding guest dresses so I hope these options were helpful for you :)
Pastels and other lighter colors are definitely great for weddings, like the one you are wearing :) such a pretty pastel blue color! I'll be going to a wedding this month and I'm planning on opting for a champagne-colored dress. So excited!

I can't wait to see what you choose to wear for both the beach weddings!
I so wish I could have shown this post to a few ladies at the last wedding I went to. It's sad that some women don't know how to dress without overshadowing the bride. These options you shared are perfect.

I definitely agree what you mean! I think people need to be a little more considerate because it is the bride's day and not the guest.
Thank you for this post. Great suggestions. I may not get to go to a wedding in the near future because of heading off to college. That dress looks amazing on you.

It is also a versatile dress for other events such as garden parties. The color is very good, and the black waist band highlights . Very feminine

Thank you Eva! I love the style of this dress because it's classic and can be worn for many events like you mentioned.
You look amazing babe! Love that shade of blue on you. Personally I love wearing maxi dresses to weddings, although I haven't gone to one yet this year! xx, sharon

I love maxi dresses too! The issue is that I am petite so it's hard to find a dress that compliments my height and doesn't overshadow it based on the length.
