10 Gorgeous Wedding Guest Dresses Under $250
While we’ve both planned our weddings this past year, we were also honored to be wedding guests at a number of different celebrations! From a laid-back island wedding in Hawaii to a city-chic celebration in Downtown Los Angeles, we had the best time attending the weddings of some of our closest friends – and we have more to come in 2022!
As bridesmaids and attendants at most of the weddings we had last year, our attire was restricted to the look & feel the brides want for their wedding party; so if you’re a wedding guest at someone’s upcoming nuptials, you’ll have the luxury of choosing a dress – or jumpsuit! – in a style, color, and look that’s completely up to you. Of course, you’ll have to choose a look that fits the formality or dress code, but thankfully there are tons of options out there (and you can buy most online!).
No matter if the wedding you’re attending is casual, semi-formal, formal, or black tie, we’re sharing some of our favorite wedding guest dresses you’ll love – and they’re all under $250! Keep an eye out for sales & promo codes too – or check Poshmark or other resale options to find even better deals!

Reformation “Nikita” Dress - $248
This midi-length dress – which comes in an array of colors/patterns (shown in Mademoiselle) – is perfect for a semi-formal wedding. With adjustable tie straps, a ruffled-edge neckline, and a fitted bodice and relaxed skirt, this one is definitely on our wish list for upcoming weddings, get-togethers, and more!
Show Me Your Mumu “Claire” Midi Dress - $178
We actually own this dress in the Silver Sage Crisp color (Kelcy wore it for her engagement photos at El Matador Beach!), but we love this emerald hue for a fall or winter wedding.
PETAL & PUP “AVANI” Dress - $79
A little black dress (LBD) is always a good idea, and we love this bodycon-style dress with a ruffled hem and matching bodice & sleeve detail. The best part is it’s under $100, and it can be worn for a number of different events – and even to the office!
ASTR the Label "Primrose" Floral Maxi Dress - $178
Coming in four color ways, we love this floral gown featuring a pleated bodice, cap sleeves, side cutouts, and a tiered element at the bottom of the skirt. The strappy back is sexy, yet sophisticated – perfect for a wedding guest!
LULUs “Molinetto” TIERED MAXI Dress - $89
This floral lace dress with a beautiful ruffle & tier design is perfect for a more formal wedding. Its burgundy hue makes it ideal for a fall or winter celebration, but it would be lovely for a formal ballroom wedding in any season!
KATIE MAY “SURREAL” Dress - $250
Need a dress for a formal or black tie wedding? We love this floor-length gown with a low back featuring a beautiful lace detail! This blush color is so pretty for a spring or summer wedding!
Reformation “Kourtney” Dress - $248
This midi-length dress (shown in Frolic) is a wonderful option for an outdoor wedding. While it’s highly encouraged to not wear white to weddings, this dress is just creamy enough to be acceptable! If you’re still not comfortable, choose one of the other colors & patterns available!
Tularosa “Lily” Floral Dress - $218
Perfect for a garden wedding or a celebration at a winery, this off-the-shoulder floral number is sweet, sexy, and can definitely be worn again for anything from a bridal shower, baby shower, or event – or even a fashionable trip to the farmer’s market!
LULUS “Song of LOVE” Maxi Dress - $109
A little bit sexy & a lotta bit classic, this maxi dress in a stunning slate blue hue will be a favorite in your closet for wedding after wedding. The off-the-shoulder neckline and side slit add a modern feel to this elegant look.
ASTR THE LABEL “GAIA” Dress - $94
The slip-dress trend isn’t going anywhere, and this floral pattern is a springtime twist on the classic solid hue. This dress can easily be dressed up or down, so you can wear it with heels to a garden wedding one weekend and with sneakers to the market the next!
Another great option that we’ve been loving for weddings (and let’s be honest, just life in general) is Fashion Pass! It’s a fashion rental service that allows you to switch out a minimum of two clothing items + one accessory every week for a low monthly fee – and they have a ton of brands you see on sites like Revolve. Use our code KELCY2 to get $15 off your first order!
