Wedding guest dresses, by dress code. The invitation tells you most of what you need, so here's how to shop it by the codes couples print, from black tie and black tie optional to cocktail, semi-formal and garden party. Black tie or black tie optional? Go floor-length in delicate romantic lace or our liquid-shine satin jersey, with a fishtail hem that holds its line from the receiving line to the last dance, then narrow it down in our black tie dresses edit. Cocktail or semi-formal? A midaxi sits below the knee for the ceremony and still moves when the band starts, which makes it the easiest call for a city reception. Fall is one of the busiest wedding seasons in the US, so our fall wedding guest dresses swap pastels for chocolate brown, wine and black, add long sleeves for a vineyard ceremony after dark, and pair with a bolero for the church. A wedding often comes with a whole weekend attached. Dress up for the rehearsal dinner, keep it lighter for the bridal shower and farewell brunch, and the bride can head straight to The Bridal Shop. Save the date, and leave the dress to us.
