While I didn't get married at City Hall myself—in fact, one could argue I went the entirely opposite route—I’ve always appreciated the idea and imagined what I or someone I know would wear to such an occasion. Call it an obsession with Sex and the City and Carrie Bradshaw’s discovery of the perfectly chic but low-key city hall wedding dress, which she temporarily tabled in place of a Vivienne Westwood gown only to eventually return to her original plan (and outfit), but there’s something I simply love about the concept and the outfit potential. With that in mind, today I’ve decided to feed into those fantasies and round up 20 of my favorite dresses that are definitely worthy of a stylish city hall wedding. From different styles to a range of price points, there’s something everyone will love.

Editor-at-Large

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2020, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch 90 Day Fiancé.
