Dresses for Summer Weddings: Floral Edition

Jun 24, 2021

Summer weddings are back, and that means dresses.  In a post-pandemic world having a bit of fun with your attire means bold colors and patterns, and today, I wanted to share some chic floral dresses.

I organized this outfits by price point because how much you spend on a dress for a wedding depends on a lot of factors.  How many weddings do you have that summer?  Who is getting married?  How many photos will you be posing for (a number that rises for a close friend or family member)?  And also the simple question of what your budget should be for a dress you might only wear once or twice before you Poshmark it.

Formal (over-$500) // This Embroidered Mesh Bustier Dress is pretty and playful.  I love the embroidered floral print with its colorful, whimsical look.  To finish it up, I added a metallic sandal for dancing the night away and an earring that pulls the pale pink color from the floral.

Looking for a more affordable gown for a formal wedding?  This Eliza J gown has a nice print.  Plus-size?  I love this soft purple dress from Avenue.

Semi-Formal (over-$200) // This Shirred Floral V-Neck Dress from DvF is a great choice for a wedding, bridal shower, or summertime event.  I paired it with a simple sandal (I own these and they’re pretty comfortable.) and a bright clutch to accent the print.

Semi-Formal (under-$200) // This Floral Halter Neck Dress has a big bold print that is fabulous.  I decided to carry the pink tones into the shoe with this Marc Fisher heel, and chose a simple bangle stack for the accessory.

Casual Wedding (under-$100) // This H&M Lilac Jacquard Dress (also in plus) is a fun, on trend look in a great color.  The tonal floral jacquard also gives you that floral whimsy without the bold print.  I wanted to keep the shoes the same color because it has a playful vibe, and paired it with a simple white clutch you can carry again and again.

Other dresses in this price point include this rose halter dress from TJ Maxx and this wrap dress from Nordstrom in a yellow floral.

The Find: A Striped Tee

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
