Spring Wedding Guest Trends

Trees are blooming, coffees are iced and sunset is at 7pm. This can only mean one thing—spring is here and so is wedding season. Before you panic about the invitations piling up, rest assured that Nuuly is the answer to all your spring wedding needs. Our Head of Product, Sky Pollard, shared a few thoughts about wedding guest dressing trends for the season—and we trust her, because she’s the expert. Here’s what she had to say:

What's Trending for Spring Weddings?

“This spring, wedding guest fashion is all about embracing romantic and intricate details. Lace from head to toe, lingerie-inspired elements and sheer overlays are making waves. Structured pieces like corsets and bustiers offer a modern twist on classic elegance, while ‘70s-inspired styles like ruffles, sheer sleeves and pussybows bring a romantic vibe to the function.”

Keep With the Classics

“For a timeless look, contrast embroidery is your go-to. Refresh traditional florals with 3D details or embroidery appliqué, or explore photorealistic prints that bring an artistic flare to your outfit.”

Have Fun With Color

“Expect to see pastels, oranges, and icy blues in sleek formal wear. But if that isn’t your vibe? Consider copper or chocolate—and for a bold, unexpected choice, chartreuse is making a splash.”

Cocktail vs. Formal

“For formal or black-tie events, opt for a full-length or ankle-length gown with an awards season feel. Cocktail attire is more flexible and fun—think two-piece sets, suits, or jumpsuits. Always consider the location and the couple's style to guide your outfit choice.”

Why Rent Guest Looks?

“Renting your spring wedding guest outfit is an easy choice. You can experiment with trends, adapt to dress codes, and avoid cluttering your closet with pieces you'll only wear once! With the money you saved on the outfit, invest in a great pair of shoes instead—they'll last longer and elevate any look.”
