Best Summer Wedding Dresses

With the arrival of summer, almost all of us receive a handful of wedding invitations. While it feels overwhelming to have people remember you for the happiest day of their lives, it also brings the inherent dilemma of what dress to wear as a guest at a summer wedding.

While it’s entirely up to you what you decide to wear, here are a few tips to help you dress right for weddings this summer:

Don’t Worry About the Lengths

Summer weddings are one occasion where you at least do not have to worry about the length of your dress. Whether you wish to wear a short dress to a summer wedding, or don a tea-length or full length dress—everything works! Just make sure you dress appropriately for the event type. That’s the only restriction on you. Our summer wedding dresses will make you look even more beautiful than you already are.

Incorporate Fresh Prints

Summer wedding dresses with floral prints are trending nowadays. Flowers are more of a spring thing, but work well for summers too. Think sleeveless skater dresses with small floral print – or a big bold print if you’d prefer that. Think dresses with low backs, flowy skirts, and feminine charm. You can wear strapless, off the shoulder, one shoulder, and even halter style dresses to summer weddings.

The Colors Matter

Summer brings its very own palette of colors. You can choose a summer wedding dress in bright bold hues of pink, orange, yellow, blue, and green. Summer palettes contain a plethora of colors to choose from, and while you have the liberty to pick a color of your choice, you need to be careful about the setting, theme, and location of the wedding you will be attending. Stick to the brighter shades for day time, and the darker ones for night.

Choosing the Right Fabrics

Your fabric selection plays an important part in deciding on the dress to wear at a summer wedding. It may not be so for the onlookers, but you don’t want to suffocate in your own attire just because the fabric makes it impossible for you to breathe. Think light and airy. Cotton is ideal—you can amp up the dress with accessories if it seems too simple as a summer dress for a wedding guest. Flowy fabrics like silk and chiffon for maxi dresses can be good too. Lace is an absolute winner too.

Accessorize Right

When considering wedding guest dresses for summer, it is important to think about the accessories that complete your look. Pairing a sundress with a pair of sunglasses, and a sun hat for a day wedding is an absolute winner. For a wedding in the evening stick to minimal jewelry—maybe a bracelet watch or a cocktail ring would suffice.

Follow these tips and there is less chance of you committing a fashion disaster. Just make sure you buy a dress that fits well. Stick to your size; size 8 means 8, not a 7 or a 9. Also do check out several stores around you in New York, or whichever city of the United States you live in before making the final decision. Summer wedding dresses are here for you!
