    24 Dresses To Wear To A Courthouse Wedding

    Say "I do" to wearing these dresses.

    1. A lace V-neck dress for anyone who has been working on a Pinterest board titled "Boho Wedding" for the past decade. This is stunning, lightweight, and screams mason jar drinking glasses.

    2. A budget-friendly chiffon maxi for a simple, stunning gown made from a comfortable fabric you'll be able to twirl around in all day. Reviewers swear that this lovely option checks off all the boxes.

    3. A swing cocktail dress that will get your look one-and-done finished, so you can focus on the hands-down best part of any wedding, ever: appetizers at dinner. Calamari is my love language.

    4. A sleeveless V-neck with a chiffon outer layer and an inner layer made from an ultra soft fabric that doesn't feel constricting — and the wide fabric belt cinches right at the waist to ensure a defined silhouette.

    5. A halter maxi dress with a smocked bodice, ruffled bottom, a drool-worthy open back, and adjustable back straps that mean a bra may not be necessary (SO LONG, PAINFUL UNDERWIRE). Let's all do this together: *swoon*

    6. A strappy draped gown you can customize precisely to your liking: choose between matte and satin, add a thigh-high slit, request a train, and add your exact measurements. You can even raise the low backline (READ: don't).

    7. An off-shoulder tiered maxi dress that I'm pretty sure I'd shed several ~tiers~ over if I saw you wearing it, regardless of the nuptials. It's gorgeous. Ignore me. I've just chopped a few onions.
