17 Absolutely Perfect Wedding Guest Dresses I’ve Bookmarked For This Summer

Be the best dressed guest.

Every year there are a staggering 278,599 weddings that take place in the UK. We’re bound to be invited to one – and if you’re anything like me, I’m sure you want to be one of the best dressed.

Whenever I’m waiting for pay day, I fall in love with every thing I see in the shops, but finding a decent dress is always difficult when there’s some urgency to it.

I’ve always stuck to the classics when it comes to wedding dressing. There are so many unwritten rules (that we’ve actually written out for you) for what to wear during these occasions that it can be quite tricky to zero in on what’s appropriate and also the right fit for your style.

It’s a good thing there are plenty of options out there. I’ve been doing my homework and looking, so you don’t have to. This summer, we’re truly spoilt for choice — even in the cost department.  

You definitely don’t need to spend hundreds to find yourself a decent outfit. Brands like Zara, Sister Jane and Ghost are just some of the stores I look to for affordable wedding guest dresses, often for under £100.

If you’re ready to go shopping for the best wedding guest dresses for 2023, I’ve found 17 for you to start with.
