As spring finally approaches (LOL, I'm saying this after a snowstorm ripped through these parts days ago), it's likely that wedding invites have been piling up on ya. Whether you're one of those people who has their entire fridge covered in them (praying for you) or you're only attending one or two this season, we've got you covered—especially if you have no idea what to wear to said nuptials. Frankly, there are tons of different wedding dress codes that can be confusing and vague, so if you're attending a spring wedding soon, keep scrolling for some ideas that might help in the outfit department. Fr, I'm def a wedding guest expert so know that I got you.

And FYI, lots of these styles—from slip dresses to cute minis—work for plenty of everyday occasions as well. Meaning, you can get extra wear out of them throughout the year. Yay for cost efficiency! So without further ado, here are 28 cute spring wedding guest dresses that'll make you stand out at the ceremony and reception—without taking attention from the bride, of course!
