Wedding Guest and Mother-of-the-Groom/Bride Dresses

We have a few weddings on our calendars in the coming months (as guests) that require a fun dress, and we have more than a few friends looking for the perfect mother-of-the-bride/groom dress. We thought it would be fun to highlight a variety of looks for any upcoming weddings, from casual to formal.

There are lots of great options out there right now.  Here are our recs.

Pomander Place Emerald Gown: If you can pull off a one-shoulder look, this is a beautiful choice for a summer event.

Black Long Dress: If black is what you need, this is a beauty – check out the back detail.

Carolina Herrera: You can’t go wrong with Carolina Herrera, the most elegant option for a big event. This midi dress is made from fluid crêpe and boasts a flared skirt and a bow-detailed front.

Victoria Beckham: This Spice Girl has become a go-to designer for figure-flattering dresses. Made from lustrous satin, the style features an elegant gathered detailing at the center.

Gold Cape Leah Dress: Just so pretty and sophisticated. Comes in multiple colorways (some with different fabric details).
