Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A trumpet-sleeve dress you'll want to twirl around in as you make your way to the donut wall.
Promising review: "I have nothing but good things to say about this dress. It's super cute, lightweight, and stretchy. You can wear heels, boots, flats and still be cute. I wore it out for a quick dinner date and so many random people kept giving me compliments!" —Porsh
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes XS–2XL and 33 colors).
2. A floral lace sleeveless high-low dress that comes in so many colors, I can ~almost~ guarantee you'll find a color for every wedding you're invited to, regardless of theme.
Promising review: "Absolutely perfect! I loved it! Exactly what I was looking for! Very light and comfortable. I ordered a belt with a ribbon tie in the back and hand sewed it around the waste just to give it a little extra something. I highly recommend this dress. I want to buy more in different colors. I knew I wanted a high-low in lace and in this color blue and everything I found at the stores cost over $100. The price was awesome and I got the dress I wanted! Love love love." —Ketz85
Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in sizes XS–4XL and 17 colors).
3. An envelope clutch with a romantic design, lining, *and* it comes with a chain strap so you don't have to worry about having your hands full of anything but red velvet cupcakes.
Promising review: "This is, by far, the best $10 I’ve spent. And I’ve spent plenty. I love a bargain. Didn’t have the highest hopes at this price point. I got it in white and it’s AMAZING. Everyone who has seen it has complimented me, I’m back to buy in several other colors. This is a sturdy bag. I’ve gotten clutches this price that feel so flimsy and don’t hold the shape. This is sturdy, has a good feel in your hand. Has some bulk/weight to it, in a good way. Feels like you could’ve spent much more. The chain is long, but not quite long enough for me to wear as a crossbody. I use it mainly as a clutch but love how the chain tucks away easily and doesn’t take up space. It’s amazing. I want them all!" —andrea
Get it from Amazon for $10.99 (available in seven colors).
4. A ruffled sleeve dress that'll leave you in tiers at the ceremony. Get it? Tiers.
5. A maxi skirt with a show-stopping slit up one leg so you can show off that tan you've been working on all year, while still looking fa-bu-lous at the reception. I didn't spend hours sunbathing in the backyard for NOTHING.
Promising review: "I spent the last week at the beach and I wore this skirt over my bathing suit every day. I got tons of compliments. It dried quickly, sand rolled right off, and it flowed beautifully in the wind. I don't think this skirt was made for the beach specifically, but it should have been!" —Jen M.
Get it from Amazon for $22.94+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 15 colors).
6. A pair of chic paper-bag waist pants because not everyone wants to wear dresses and you're one of them. The best part is you can just wear these on Monday at work and no one will even know you partied all weekend in them.
Promising review: "I'm in LOVE with these pants as they are good quality and stylish! I love how you can dress them up or down and the bow and pockets add such a nice touch (I love pockets in anything). I already have the olive color in my cart and will be buying them VERY soon. They fit perfectly and are lose/tight in all the right places. I love wearing these to work as they are comfy and don't constrict anything. Highly recommend!" —Natasha
Get them from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and 39 colors and designs, including multipacks).
7. A dusty blue midi dress perfect for every single spring wedding you've been invited to. The color is perfectly light and airy, making it perfect for not just weddings, but literally any other event.
Lady Black Tie is a New-England-based small business that specializes in chic and sleek attire for any event.
Get it from Lady Black Tie for $62 (available in sizes XS–2XL).
8. A two-piece blazer and pant set that effortlessly says "I don't like dresses but I ooze style".
BTW, the pants are elastic!
Promising review: "This set it’s so cute! It’s not the best fabric but you can’t really beat the price. I got a size medium because, as the other reviews say, the top runs a little big. Pants fit me perfectly though!" —Salazar Coke
Get it from Amazon for $40.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and in 24 colors and patterns).
9. A pencil dress with some very unique sleeves, guaranteed to make every guest turn to admire you at least three times. Don't worry though, no one will overlook the bride.
10. A pleated swing dress so cute, you may actually *want* to learn how to swing just to look like a pro on the dance floor after dinner.
Promising review: "I cannot even begin to describe how AWESOME this dress is. The fabric is very good quality and yet was still felt light to wear. The price is extremely reasonable for such a quality dress. I received too many to count compliments on it. I highly recommend this dress and will be buying more in the near future as I love the pinup style!" —Wood02
Get it from Amazon for $37.98 (available in sizes S–2XL and eight colors).
11. A midi dress to look like the belle of the wedding — and no one would even think it was a simple $30 dress from Amazon.
12. A knit sweater dress for the person who doesn't ever sweat and complains that indoor weddings are *freezing*. You'll be warm aaand look so stylish. Don't forget to accessorize!
Promising review: "This dress fits PERFECT. I am always skeptical with Amazon clothing purchases. This dress is an extremely soft (almost cashmere feeling) sweater material. It hugs the curves so nice! Snug, but definitely not tight." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 26 colors).
13. A lace peplum top to pair with flared dress pants for a chic look, a pencil skirt, or even some nice denim jeans if you're attending a simple backyard wedding.
Promising review: "I LOVE this top. It is a soft type of lace, not stiff or scratchy, very well-made and comfortable. It is see thru everywhere except for a built in fabric portion across the bust, in the front only. It hits just below my waist and above my hips. Perfect length for jeans." —Andylynn
Get it from Amazon for $11.19+ (available in sizes XS–2XL and nine colors and styles).
14. A pair of closed-toe ankle-strap block heels so you don't have to worry about your heels digging into the grass for any outdoor wedding. It's literally the *worst* feeling.
Promising review: "They're very cute and very easy to walk in! I grew up playing in swamps and my balance is absolutely awful, so I'm not generally the type to wear heels — for both style and safety reasons. I trip and roll my ankles a lot! However, the base of these heels is wide enough that I don't roll my ankles, and I haven't tripped once! I did put a gel insert in the shoes to make them more comfortable to wear long-term, and that has worked very well. I also think they are absolutely adorable! I've never loved a pair of heels before! I highly recommend them, especially to people who have a hard time walking in heels." —Christina Norwood
Get them from Amazon for $23.21+ (available in sizes 5.5–11 and eight colors and styles).
15. A vibrant cutout dress to wear to your ex's wedding so you can remind them that it was *them* not *you*.

Get it from Beginning Boutique for $74.99 (available in sizes 0–12).
16. A flutter-sleeve dress, because it's simple but has the cutest flair so it feels like you put in way more effort than you did. I wore this to a wedding last summer and it was so comfortable and cute!
Promising review: "This dress is so nice for the price it's kind of a steal. Fits so well, soft, nice material. Beautiful and classy. As one reviewer mentioned it can look a little broad in the shoulders, but it's also part of the vintage flutter-sleeve style. Such a bargain." —Kaela

Psst: This item is included in Prime Wardrobe, so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!

19. A sassy high-waisted pleated skirt because you can easily wear it to every single wedding by changing the top and no one will realize you basically have a wedding uniform.
Promising review: "The skirt is as beautiful as I imagined it would be; it's exactly as pictured. It's very comfortable, and due to the elastic waist band, it's very forgiving as far as fit. It's perfect for work or a casual day out." —Elayne

22. A ruffled romper perfect for a super casual beach wedding. Bonus points if you wear your bathing suit underneath and sneak away during the reception to take a dip in the tropical waters. Ahhh.
Promising review: "Love this romper!! I used it for one of my bridal/engagement shoots and it was lovely. A little sheer in the arms but it gives it a romantic feel." —Matthew G.
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in six colors).
23. A pleated dress because it's simple, classic, and can easily be elevated with the right accessories.
Promising review: "The dress has pockets but they lay nice, no bulging or puckering. The waistband in the front fits comfortably in the right places. There is no waistband in the back which is perfect. The dress is very light, but not see-through so perfect to wear to work on a hot summer day. Definitely ordering it in another color!" —MrsChef
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes L–4XL and 20 colors).
Psst: This item is included in Prime Wardrobe, so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!
24. A maxi dress for when you need to look cute but don't really want to put in a lot of effort. AKA me every single day of my life. Did I mention it has pockets?? Pockets for cookies you took from the dessert bar.
Promising review: "I brought this to wear to an event. The fact it has pockets made it even more appealing. The material feels nice and isn't clingy." —Jdmjr85

28. A versatile below-the-knee stretchy pencil skirt you can pair with basically any blouse you own and you'd immediately look put-together and ready to enjoy a wedding.
Promising review: "I love this skirt. Fits like a glove... good quality, double-lined. Yes, it is as fitted as you see in pictures, but not uncomfortable at all. If you want a skirt that is sexy and modern, this is it. If you want loose and comfy look elsewhere. Some reviews said you can't walk in it, not true, unless you take huge steps or need to run. I love it so much I just purchased it in navy, red, and grey. Enjoy it ladies!" —Vero

Promising reviews: "I was really hoping to like these shoes and...they did not disappoint! I have wide feet so I was afraid that they would be too narrow but they are very comfortable. It's the perfect heel height for me since I do not like too high of a heel. The chunky heel also makes the shoe very comfortable for hours and hours to wear. This is a staple shoe for a very good deal." —Star K

Promising review: "I have been looking for some new spring/summer sandals and I just received these and they are so incredibly comfortable and super cute! I think I will order them in more colors.
