21 Feb The 2025 Wedding Guest Outfits to Try This Spring/Summer

I don’t know about you, but the start of the new year and the drudgery of January and/or February always leads me to think about what fun and frolics we have to come in the upcoming summer months. And for me, that means two things, the summer holidays and the wedding season. Both of which require a fun and sometimes overlapping wardrobe.

But what are the 2025 wedding guest outfits trends providing food for thought this year? Wedding guest outfit shopping used to lead you down a narrow and somewhat samey path of pastels, frills and occasion wear shops. But, no more! Now you can wear whatever you want to a wedding. I mean, within reason, of course. Depending on the wedding, the colour of the bridal outfit will remain firmly off the table for obvious reasons. Plus, it’s wise to think about how sexy is appropriate for the wedding you’re attending. Maybe don’t go full sheer at the church. Or, any part of the wedding, unless you’re the bride and you’re going for sassy. Leaning into your usual style and the current trends, however, is always a good idea.

Not only will this lead to a more succinct wedding guest outfit choice, but you will be less likely to end up with something you don’t get to wear again. Your chosen wedding guest outfit often has to work quite hard, taking you from the ceremony to the reception, to the dancefloor. So it needs to be good. Multi-tasking, comfortable, but fabulous, Got it. If you’re in need of some inspiration, here are 10 spring/summer trend-inspired 2025 wedding guest outfits to consider this year…

Mellow Yellow Wedding Guest Outfit

Shades of yellow continue to reign supreme for spring and look just perfect for a summer wedding.

Animal Print Wedding Guest Outfit

2025 wedding guest outfits lean spicy with animal print instead of classic florals. Leopard looms large, but zebra makes a fresh choice too. Keep the rest of your outfit simple and let the maximalist print shine, or go playful with a pop of colour.

Blue Wedding Guest Look

Aquatic shades from turquoise to icy blue are big news for SS25. If you want to go the whole hog mermaid-inspired elements and silhouettes also showed up on the catwalk and will allow you to shimmer like the sea at a destination wedding. Or, just bring your best mermaid vibes to a day in the city…

Strapless Wedding Guest Outfit

Strapless silhouettes have been trending for a while, and the pared-back look feeds into the 90s minimalist look that is ever an elegant choice for any occasion.

Asymmetric Wedding Guest Outfit

From flowy asymmetric skirts to one-shoulder tops, asymmetry is feeling fresh again. This trend is on the up for 2025 and will add a unique touch to your wedding guest look.

Petal Pink Wedding Guest Outfit

At Alaïa, Miu Miu, Valentino, and Chanel powder pink is making a play for our affections in 2025, and it just so happens to be perfect for a romantic occasion like a wedding.

Sheer Wedding Guest Outfit

Sheer can work so well for a wedding in romantic tulle or organza, with just a hint of skin on show beneath.

Green Wedding Guest Outfit

If it’s not summery shades of yellow, or romantic petal pink, then its pistachio, chartreuse, or lime this spring/summer. Look to the gorgeous green dresses at Tove and Chloé for inspiration.

Polka Dot Wedding Guest Outfit

Polka dots have been back on the fashion radar for a few seasons, and this classic print always looks great for a wedding.

Boho Wedding Guest Look

Take inspiration from the much buzzed about boho babes at Chloé and go for flowing silhouettes, frothy sleeves and ruffles.

Black Wedding Guest Outfit

If in doubt, black is forever chic and yes, it’s totally acceptable at a wedding these days and makes a great base for bright and bold accessories or statement jewelry.
