Cocktail Attire: Dress, Earrings, Bracelet, Sandals, Clutch
Garden: Dress, Earrings, Clutch, Wedges
Beach: Dress, Earrings, Clutch, Wedges
I have to admit, I love weddings! Who doesn’t? Even though I may complain about the expense, I always feel honored when one of my friends invites me to share in their happy day. I’m heading to a wedding in a few weeks (and will probably wear this dress) and always get quite a few questions for advice on summer wedding guest outfit ideas or what to wear to a wedding in general.
I know there are so many different dress codes out there, but I narrowed it down to 3 of the most popular. Personally, cocktail attire is the easiest and I generally go with a LBD or LND (little navy dress) and then use my accessories to make the outfit pop. For a more conservative crowd, I would trade the red shoes for black sandals and maybe add my white tuxedo blazer. I can’t afford to buy a different dress for every wedding, so changing up accessories is a easy way to change your look. For the garden and beach weddings, a flowy dresses that moves (and breathes) is always a smart choice and most importantly wear wedges or at least a thicker heel! Speaking from experience, if there is any chance of walking on grass you want to leave those stilettos at home!
Do you have any weddings this summer? Which of the outfits above would you wear to a wedding?

This is a great guide and much needed by me right now, as I’m trying to decide what to wear to this “summer cocktail” event in a few weeks. Thanks so much for sharing!

What fun choices! I love your beach look – though I’d probably wear that any day!

I love the wedding outfits you picked together because not only are the styled perfectly but they are appropriate for each wedding event! It is hard for me to choose which outfit I love the most but I would say it is the cocktail look! Yes, I do have a summer wedding to attend and it is this month.
