Spring is upon us and it’s as if the whole world is waking up! It’s likely that you find yourself adding fresh flowers to your cart, looking up new seasonal recipes, and a calendar full of spring weddings. If you’re wondering where to find the perfect wedding guest dresses for spring, we’ve got you covered. A spring wedding calls for softer hues (hello, lilac and mint), floral patterns, feminine silhouettes, and romantic details. But we’re also seeing trends in bold prints, polka dots, and bright colors—it’s time to step out and we’re here for it!
We’ve put together a guide full of wedding guest dresses for spring to get the party started! From outdoor weddings to glam events, there’s something here for everyone. Can we start you a room?
Plus Size Wedding Guest Dresses For Spring
We included plus-size wedding guest dresses for spring throughout the entire list, but allow us to just highlight a few of our favorites right here at the start! These dresses are exclusively plus size, starting at 14 or 1X depending on the retailer.
GWS Tip! One hallmark of a spring dress is the color. Look for light, bright colors that celebrate the season. We’re loving mints and purples for something a little more fashion-forward or pinks and yellows for that classic spring look.
Satin Maxi Dress
This beautiful dress comes in seven really great colors to get you through spring and summer. We love this mauve but the sage and periwinkle are SO good.
Satin Bishop Sleeve Wrap Dress
Just dying for those bishop sleeves over here! Love the loose silhouette and movement of this one.
Polka Dot Puff Sleeve Dress
We’re seeing polka dots everywhere for spring and LOVING this playful, chic trend. Especially pairing with the puff sleeve—such a fun look for a spring wedding!
Plus Size Button-Front Dress
This flowy dress features pockets and a bit of stretch in the fabric for a comfortable and flattering fit.
Balloon-Sleeve Cinched Dress
The bold pattern on this dress is the perfect bridge from winter to spring. With the flared skirt, it’s super feminine and fun.
Garden Party + Vineyard Wedding Guest Dresses for Spring
Call it obvious, but we can’t help but turn to floral patterns when it comes to choosing a dress for a garden spring wedding. Because an outdoor wedding is generally during the day and a little more relaxed, these dresses are made for catching that lovely spring breeze. They can easily transition from day to night, but you’ll find this collection just a bit more loose and easy before we dive into spring cocktail dresses!
GWS Tip! Wondering about the length? Dresses for spring weddings can run the gambit from mini to maxi. If you go with maxi, make sure it’s a light fabric and a sleeveless or flutter-sleeve top. Number one rule: the dress should make you feel more like you.
Blush + Fuscia Milkmaid Dress
If you love a prairie-chic dress then you’ll die over ASTR the Label’s entire wedding guest collection. This one features a sweetheart neckline and high slit in the sweetest floral print.
Floral Midi Dress
The back of this dress has THE most fun cutout details and tie straps. And the floral print is just perfect for spring!
Flutter Sleeve Maxi Dress
This dress has everything! The floral print, the cutout on the sides and back, the front slit, the flowy sleeve—you’ll be a vision in this one!

The tiny floral print on this dress…such good colors, right? Loving the square neck on this one, too.
Flowy Polka Dot Dress
We have a feeling you’d live in this dress. The polka dots are on point and the thin straps that cross to tie in the back is just so cool.
Multicolor Ruffle Dress
The smocking and ruffles on this classy dress are second only to that fun, bold print.
Lilac Smocked Dress
This functional cotton dress works perfectly for a spring wedding—or any spring event! Dress it up or down, you’ll definitely wear it more than once.
Wild Peony Pleated Dress
If this dress gives you a nostalgic vibe, it’s because the print was inspired by ’50s wallpaper!

The deep-V isn’t for everyone, but this dress does it so stylishly! You can also unbutton the skirt for a higher slit.
Tiered Maxi Dress
This dress comes in several prints and colors (and extended sizes, too) but we can’t help but love a blush for spring.
Cocktail Attire Wedding Guest Dresses for Spring
Cocktail attire for spring translates to dresses that take it up a notch in the chic factor. Where you might be able to style a garden wedding dress in a way that’s also suited for a Saturday farmer’s market run, cocktail dresses are just a bit fancier. However, we wouldn’t put it past you to find ways to wear these again and again!
GWS Tip! Speaking of re-wear, we’re all about making the dresses in our closets last. When you shopping for a wedding guest dress, think ahead. Is there another event you’d wear it to? Is the dress capable of styling up AND down?
Pink Rose Midi Dress
This dress is all romance with it’s pink rose print and that ruffle layer on the skirt!

If we’re including only one jumpsuit on this list, it’s FOR SURE going to be a hot pink one. However, it does come in different colors if you love the look but would rather go muted.
