If you’re heading to a wedding this summer, you’ll be in need of some outfits to wear for the celebration when you arrive. If you don’t know where to start and are looking for some ideas, I have you covered. This editor has combed through the recent looks of fashion girls to bring you some inspiration.

You might notice something interesting about most of these outfits—there is a lot of color. Going hand in hand with many of the season’s biggest trends, shades of bright yellow, bubblegum pink, and lilac are ones to watch for this season when picking out your wedding guest outfit. Another common thread is the dress length. While colors are getting bolder, hemlines are getting longer, with most past the knee or to the ankle. Perhaps this is an answer to 2018’s modest dressing that has swept the global fashion scene. Ahead shop their nine cool wedding guest outfit ideas.

This might not be your standard color combo for a wedding guest outfit, but if you’re headed to the beach or a vibrant scene, this is the thing to wear.

A great way to experiment with color is by choosing an elevated fabric like satin that will come off as dressed up for the occasion.

Incorporate the season's biggest trend

Try long sleeves

While sleeveless styles are usually the most popular for weddings, I love the idea of adding a long sleeve—especially if you’re after a modest style.

Not all weddings are black tie or super dressy. If you’re at a casual wedding in a garden or vineyard, this is the perfect dress.
