As the flowers start to bloom and the sun begins to shine, spring brings with it the return of wedding season.

Fortunately, the style experts at Rown are here to help. We've compiled our top tips and tricks to ensure you look and feel your best as a spring wedding guest, whether the dress code calls for cocktail attire or something more formal.
Embrace Springtime Hues
One of the best parts about dressing for a spring wedding is the opportunity to embrace vibrant, cheerful colors. Floral prints, pastel shades, and jewel-toned gowns are all excellent options that channel the spirit of the season.
"Springtime is all about fresh, uplifting colors," says fashion stylist Ethan Walker. "Don't be afraid to experiment with bold hues like fuchsia, lavender, or even a bright, sunny yellow. These shades will help you stand out in the best way."

Consider the Venue
When selecting your spring wedding guest attire, it's important to take the venue and overall event vibe into account. A beachfront celebration may call for a flowy, bohemian-inspired maxi dress, while a formal ballroom wedding might warrant a sleek, floor-length gown.

"Pay attention to any dress code notes on the invitation," advises etiquette expert Sophia Hernandez. "This will give you a good starting point for choosing an appropriate outfit. Then, consider the formality of the space and the time of day to further refine your selection."
For a semi-formal afternoon wedding, the Rown Eliza Midi Dress in a soft blue hue would be a lovely choice. Its delicate floral print and breezy silhouette make it perfect for a spring celebration.
Prioritize Comfort and Confidence
While looking stylish is certainly important, you'll also want to feel comfortable and confident in your spring wedding guest dress. After all, you'll likely be on your feet for several hours, dancing the night away with friends and family.
"Don't sacrifice comfort for the sake of trends," cautions image consultant Liam Morales. "Choose a dress with a flattering fit that allows you to move freely. Pair it with shoes you can actually walk in, and consider bringing a lightweight shawl or jacket in case the venue is chilly."

Accessorize with Intention
The right accessories can truly elevate a spring wedding guest ensemble. From stylish handbags to dazzling jewelry, these finishing touches can help you achieve a polished, put-together appearance.
"Pay attention to the overall aesthetic of the wedding," advises style blogger Mia Fernandez. "If it's a more formal affair, opt for sleek, sophisticated accessories. For a casual celebration, you can have a bit more fun with your choices."
To complement a spring wedding guest dress from Rown's collection, consider pairing it with a structured clutch, delicate drop earrings, and strappy heeled sandals. These refined yet trendy accents will ensure you look and feel your very best.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best length for a spring wedding guest dress? The perfect dress length can vary depending on the formality of the event. For a more casual or afternoon wedding, a midi or knee-length dress is often appropriate. For a formal evening celebration, a floor-length gown may be the way to go. When in doubt, aim for a length that allows you to move comfortably while still looking elegant.
Can I wear white to a spring wedding? As a general rule, it's best to avoid wearing white or off-white to a wedding, as those shades are traditionally reserved for the bride. However, some couples may be more relaxed about this "rule." If you're unsure, it's always a good idea to check with the couple or consult the wedding website for any dress code guidance.
How do I choose the right fabric for a spring wedding? Lightweight, breathable fabrics like chiffon, georgette, and linen are excellent choices for a spring wedding. These materials will keep you cool and comfortable, even in warmer weather. Heavier fabrics like velvet or satin may be better suited for fall or winter celebrations.
Can I wear the same dress to multiple spring weddings? Absolutely! As long as the dress is appropriate for the event and you style it differently each time, there's no reason you can't rewear a spring wedding guest dress. Just be mindful of who else may be in attendance, and try to avoid wearing the same look to back-to-back weddings with the same group of guests.
