Women's Cocktail Wedding Guest Dresses
When the invitation reads "black tie optional" or "cocktail attire" - or doesn't stipulate a dress code at all - you can't go wrong with cocktail dresses for weddings. And whether the ceremony and reception are indoors or out, in winter, spring, summer, or fall, with classic silhouettes, trend-forward designs, soft hues, timeless neutrals, and bright shades, you can create a celebratory look that's worthy of the occasion.
Winter Cocktail Dresses for Weddings. Even in the throes of winter, when the world is a wonderland of white, cocktail dresses for weddings reign supreme. For a seasonal look, pair a long-sleeve cocktail dress with sky-high boots or try a strapless or sleeveless dress with a faux fur wrap for a hint of winter style.
Spring Cocktail Dresses for Weddings. As the world blooms to life, spring cocktail dresses for weddings also blossom. With brilliant floral prints in vibrant colors, soft pastels, and lace looks, our newest collections of Adriana Papell, WAYF, AQUA dresses, and more feature fresh looks that celebrate the season.
Summer Cocktail Dresses for Weddings. From beach wedding guest dresses to looks for mountainside ceremonies, church weddings, resort receptions, and more, our summer collection of cocktail dresses for weddings makes it easy to celebrate the happy couple in style. With beautifully tailored Ralph Lauren dresses, as well as the latest looks from BCBGMAXAZRIA, Mac Duggal, and FRENCH CONNECTION, among others, you can curate a wedding season wardrobe that's impossibly chic.
Fall Cocktail Dress for Wedding. As summer gives way to fall, brides and wedding guests begin to embrace the ever-changing palette of the world around them. And with deep hues ranging from green to navy blue and cabernet to ochre, our newest collection of cocktail dresses for weddings allows you to do so in style. For inspiration, shop our selection of Aidan Mattox, Alice and Olivia, Chiara Boni La Petite Robe, Eliza J dresses, and more.
For even more looks, including formal wedding guest dresses, casual options, shoes, and accessories, visit The Wedding Shop - and celebrate those you love with your own signature style.
