1. A floral high-low dress to nab your spot on the best-dressed wedding list without completely overshadowing the bride. Reviewers love that this dress is summer wedding-ready and that it's perfect for dancing, twirling, and mingling at the reception. Weddings aside, reviewers also love that you can wear this dress again to all the other fancy occasions on your calendar—reunions, date nights, baby showers, your own wedding, who knows? It might even become your favorite dress that you own.
2. A lace-up maxi dress for making you look like an ethereal Grecian goddess without breaking the bank. After all, that stunning v-neck and side slit make this dress look like a department store splurge you would regret buying later down the road. The best part? This dress is also machine washable, so you won't have to worry about it adding to your dry cleaning bills once the wedding is over.
3. A knit tank dress if you want to keep things simple and elegant at your co-worker's wedding. This dress comes in two colors, so you can go colorful with periwinkle or go classic with black. Not to mention it costs $50, so you can splurge on other wedding accessory essentials—shoes, jewelry, clutch, you get it.
4. A backless maxi dress, which is so pretty, it can come in handy as a last-minute bridesmaid dress down the road. After all, there are six colors to choose from, so it'll tie nicely into any wedding color scheme the bride has got going on.
5. A blush one-shoulder maxi dress, because, c'mon! Everyone looks pretty in pink! Reviewers love that this bb is also *super* comfortable. And! Its one-shoulder keeps things head-turning and classy at the same time.
6. A bodycon dress so you'll have something fancy-schmancy to wear to that black-tie wedding affair coming up. Other reasons this'll become your new go-to? This dress is under $50 and stretches to fit, so it will always feel comfortable to wear.
7. A cutout maxi dress for fall weddings coming up later in the year. After all, in my opinion, fall weddings are the best kind of weddings, 'cause you don't have to worry about it being too hot or too cold, and you can wear all those deep colors that aren't in season during the summertime. I mean, is there anything prettier than this breathtaking hunter green shade?
8. A floral wrap maxi dress that is pretty yet casual enough for beachy destination weddings with a low-key vibe. While it may not look like it, this dress stays secure thanks to its two adjustable ties at the waist. Now, you won't have to worry about any embarrassing faux pas spoiling your favorite couple's big day.
9. A long-sleeve maxi dress with a stunning low back to keep all those single and ready to mingle wedding guests wondering how they can get your number. Though if you just became engaged, trust that this dress will be the perfect bridal shower dress you never knew you needed until now.
10. A surplice maxi dress for all the spring and summer weddings that are outdoors. After all, this dress is lightweight, sleeveless, and has a V-neck back to keep you breezy, beautiful, and comfortable all night long.
11. A timeless midi dress if you want something you can wear to the wedding and beyond. You can dress down this dress with sneaks and a jean jacket or dress it up with strappy sandals and killer accessories. The styling opportunities are truly endless, my friend!
12. Or a floral midi print dress with a mock neck collar. Now, you'll have a dress that looks just like the rare vintage find you love but can't justify spending a small fortune on. An added bonus? Rest assured that this dress is comfortable to wear, so, now, you'll only have to focus on just finding a comfortable pair of shoes.
13. A floral tie-strap midi dress so you'll have something to use as a wedding guest dress, a sundress to wear to work, and something for all those casual date nights when you want to channel a fun and flirty vibe. See? A dress of all trades really does exist.
14. A red-orange dress with an accent sash, because why not let your back do all the talking? It's so unique, everyone will be asking about that guest at the cocktail bar with the pretty dress...not into orange? Not to worry — this dress is also available in a classic black version.
15. A pleated chiffon maxi dress, so you can look pretty and be comfortable at the same time. Because this dress is on the longer side, it's perfect to wear to fall and spring weddings when there is a little chill in the air. All you'll have to do is grab the perfect shawl or coverup to complete your seasonal wedding guest look.
16. A wrap midi dress that you can look back at fondly in all your sister's wedding photos. Not only is this dress available in five chic color options, but reviewers really love it for its weight and easily adjustable straps. They also love its tie sash belt, which keeps it secure all night long.
17. A satin maxi dress for feeling as cool as a cucumber if your BFF's wedding happens to be on the hottest — and not to mention muggiest — day in July. The floral print and tying sash at the waist give it a beautiful and charming detail, so get ready for everyone to ask where you got it from.
18. A maxi gown dress if you're a bridesmaid, maid of honor, or even the bride! Besides, if you want a show-stopper piece that'll instantly turn heads, then this is definitely the dress that'll do the trick.
19. A sleeveless maxi dress that looks darling with a pair of heels, a clutch, and some long earrings. I personally love that this dress has a flowy mermaid hem, making it a dress that you'll want to dance the night away in.
20. And finally, a sleeved LBD, so you can wear your all-time favorite color and look the part of a chic wedding guest. Reviewers love that the dress's sleeves give it a fancy and romantic feel and that it's pretty enough to wear to weddings, dates, the office, and so many more occasions.
