What should a guest wear to a spring wedding? For a spring wedding dress, swap out long sleeves and winter coats for airy, flowing dresses that capture the season. If you want to stay traditional, and stick to florals, we would recommend that you do, but if not, pastel and light colours are a great shout for spring wedding guest dresses.
Why is green such a good choice for a wedding guest dress? We might be a little bit biased, but green is possibly one of the best colours you can choose for your wedding guest dress. There are so many shades that its impossible to find a green that looks bad on anyone - and it works all year round, from summer wedding guest dresses to winter wedding guest dresses.
One thing to keep in mind is that sage and emerald prove popular shades for bridesmaid dresses time and time again. So, before you select your shade of green, make sure youre not stealing the thunder of the bridesmaids first. Whether its a pale green, fresh green or dark green, at least you know theres a green wedding guest dress suited for any occasion.
