Out of the Millions of Dresses to Wear for a Wedding, These are the 27 We Rate

April 22, 2022 at 06:53AM

One of the most frequently asked questions we get from our lovely Who What Wear readers is: “Which dress should I wear to a (insert ceremony type here) wedding?”. While there are certainly no rules when it comes to church ceremonies, registry office nuptials in the city or even a country escape or venue abroad. Of course there are some styles, and brands, we look to each season for wedding guest outfits.

Rixo, Reformation and Self-Portrait are always a go-to for dressy, yet wearable, dresses you can wear way beyond the wedding date. The likes of Simone Rocha and cult label Taller Marmo are reliable for the even fancier affairs. And when it comes to affordable styles, high street brands including & Other Stories, Reiss, Zara and Mango never fail to impress. With so many dresses out there, though, half the battle is looking for “the one”, because it’s not just the bride’s dress that’s important, is it?

We wouldn’t usually think of Arket for guest dresses, but this open-back style is a winner all round. 

Let this dress shine by keeping to minimal, tonal accessories.

Every dress from the new M&S X Ghost collection can be worn well after the big day. 

Add a light pink blazer and matchy-matchy heels.

Of course this would be well-suited to a seaside wedding. 

Perfect for an evening guest. 

Renting an outfit is a great (and sustainable way) to wear a designer dress you may not want to splurge on. 

So pretty with white heels and a clashing green bag. 

The way to wear white. 

One to wear to any type of ceremony. 

So chic with a chunky chain necklace and lace-up-the-leg heels. 

The colour is so dreamy. 

Yep, you can wear black to a wedding. 

Fits perfectly to the love theme.

Summer sequins are definitely a thing. 

The most joyful dress. 

A “wow” dress you would wear for every occasion.
