City Chic Love Floral Ruffle Cold Shoulder Maxi Dress

This City Chic dress has all the best details for a chic summer wedding guest dress, including a playful floral pattern, a bold fuchsia hue, and ruffle details on the bodice and the off-the-shoulder strap.

Ramy Brook Hansel Rosette Satin Slipdress

Slip dresses like this Ramy Brook option are always a good idea for summer weddings if you're more of a minimalist dresser, though the hot pink colorway and rosettes down the back ensure that your dress choice is anything but boring.

Stine Goya Floral Organic Cotton Dress

We love this whimsical dress choice from Stine Goya for an outdoor wedding with a more laid-back dress code. The cotton material will keep you cool in hot summer temperatures, while the unique floral pattern dresses up this style more to make it wedding-appropriate.

Petal & Pup Lucah Floral Print Ruffle Dress

If you're more for traditional floral prints, add this Petal & Pup dress to your cart for wedding season. We already love the baby blue colorway with pink flowers, though the ruffled sleeves and tasteful cutouts are stylish bonus details.

Eloquii Twist Detail Sleeveless Body-Con Dress

Keep your ensemble simple but still on-theme for summer with this bright pink midi dress that will likely pair perfectly with any heels, clutches, and jewels already in your wardrobe. Plus, the form-fitting fit will never go out of style.

Chelsea28 Cap Sleeve Cascading Ruffle Gown

This romantic floral gown is one of Barber's favorites from Nordstrom's sale section right now—it's hard to believe it's under $100. The ruffles, tiered skirt, and pretty floral motifs give it an elegant feel, while the pale blue colorway keeps it light and summery.

Chelsea28 Drape Ruffle One-Shoulder Maxi Dress

Given the tropical vibe of the floral print, we love this one-shoulder ensemble for a beach or destination wedding. The chiffon semi-sheer skirt adds a fashion-forward touch, especially when paired with cascading ruffles down the side of the dress. More sizes are available here.

Adelyn Rae Karia Drop Waist Lace Midi Dress

Whether you opt for the blue or pink colorway, you’ll make a statement at an upcoming summer wedding with this midi. This unique design features allover floral guipure lace and a drop-waist bodice—we love it for cocktail, semi-formal, and even formal dress codes. 

Mac Duggal Cut Out One Shoulder Satin Gown

If you’re searching for a gown for a formal wedding this summer, we think this Mac Duggal option is fabulous, especially in this fun satin orange shade. The one-shoulder design with chic midriff cutouts and a leg slit give it the ultimate cool-girl feel. 

Black Halo Dolan One-Shoulder Gown

Black-tie dress codes don’t have to dim your light if you love to play dress up at weddings. This Black Halo gown possesses the floor-length hem and structured silhouette of a traditional black-tie option, but the bold floral pattern makes it chic enough for any fashion-forward wedding guest.  

Mac Duggal Floral Print Ruffled Wrap Over A Line Gown

We're always here for an unexpected color choice, like the bright green on this Mac Duggal gown, especially for a formal, floor-length gown. Despite the bold shade, the floral print and A-line silhouette allow this option to still feel traditional.

Sister Jane Reef Jacquard Midi Dress

Considering the ocean-blue color and (removable) starfish emblems at the neckline, we’re fans of this formal midi for a coastal summer wedding. The jacquard fabric is the perfect finishing touch on this unique option.

Quiz Floral Chiffon Frill Detail Maxi Dress

Yellow is one of the most signature summer shades, so it's no secret why we're gravitating towards this dress for summer nuptials. The blue florals and tiered ruffles down the skirt make this automatically stylish and wedding-appropriate.

Melloday Mock Neck Maxi Dress

Not every dress for a warm-weather wedding has to have a realistic floral design. The pattern on this Melloday dress features abstract nature-inspired motifs that any fashionable wedding guest will obsess over.

Mac Duggal Floral Ruffle Asymmetrical Hi-Low Hem Dress

We can't decide which element of this dress we love more: the golden yellow hue paired with the intricate floral pattern, or the dramatic asymmetric hem. Either way, this is an undeniable favorite from Nordstrom's sale section and a choice for any summer weddings with cocktail or semi-formal dress codes coming up.
