5 Super-Chic Outfits for Summer Weddings

You know what’s right around the corner? Summer wedding season. That means guaranteed travel, family reunions, and late nights dancing with friends, but also the conundrum of what to wear. If you’ve sent in the RSVPs and booked your hotels but still need some help with wedding outfits ideas, we’re here to help. We’ve got you covered for every wedding venue you might be headed to this summer—whether you’ll be throwing rice at city hall, sipping wine at a vineyard in Sonoma, or standing barefoot at a seaside ceremony along the Amalfi coast.

If you want to be the best dressed guest, reach for some of the season’s coolest trends. We love pairing statement earrings with a minimal slip dress. Or, tapping into the satin trend by adding a structured bag or simple slides in the luxe fabric. We’ve rounded up our favorite dresses from designers like Reformation, Johanna Ortiz, Topshop, and the perfect accessories to pair with them.
