Spring wedding season is right around the corner, so I’m sharing some of my favorite wedding guest dress from Nordstrom. The most important thing to keep in mind is the required attire listed on the invitation. Attire will determine how dressy you need to be and the venue will allow you choose an appropriate style, accessories, and shoes. When in doubt always err on the side of caution and be overdressed instead of underdressed.

Hotel
I always think of a fitted sheath dress for a hotel reception. It is classic, sophisticated, and never disappoints. Take advantage of the even walking surface and jazz up your look with some fun heels!
Winery
Often winery weddings are in remote areas so the ceremony and reception are on the property. Footwear is crucial to ensure you are comfortable and able to enjoy the day without picking grass out of your stilettos. I love platforms and block heels for outdoor venues. Opt for floral patterns, flowy silhouettes, and soft colors to match the vineyard vibe.
Garden
Think of a garden wedding the same way you think about a winery but slightly less formal. Loose fitting silhouettes and block heels are key to staying comfortable in an outdoor event setting.
Art Gallery
Art galleries and museums by nature tend to be very formal as an event space. There’s likely hundreds millions of dollars of art around the building so it lends itself to a more dressy environment. Opt for a longer dress in a fitted silhouette for a more formal look.
Beach
Flowy silhouettes, flat sandals (not flip flops), and fun prints are all appropriate for a beach ceremony. A dressy maxi and pearl accessories would be perfect for a seaside wedding.
Estate
Think historic mansion or luxury villa. These venues are a bit more versatile so I’d choose a dressy cocktail dress in a print if it’s more casual and a solid if it’s more formal.
