Top Trends for Beach Wedding Guest Dresses

Can every wedding be a beachside wedding? We like to imagine that when the bride and groom picked the destination they were really thinking of us, because the biggest day of their lives is now our summer vacation. Thank you so much to the happy couple!

You know we live for a good destination escape, so of course we have no shortage of beach wedding guest dresses at VENUS. And even better, whatever the look you’re going for, you’re shore to leave a lasting impression in any of our styles (no pun intended!).

Trends for Beach Wedding Guest Dresses

When you’ve finally made it out of the pool and sipped the last of your piña colada, these are the beachside wedding dress trends you’ll want packed for the main event:

Vibrant paradise-inspired prints
Flowing maxi dresses
Sundresses you can wear to multiple events
Outfit-making accessories

With a stocked suitcase, you’ll be best-dressed at the wedding and all weekend long.

Dresses with Tropical Prints

Remember, you’re in vacation mode, so have fun with your beach wedding guest dress. Embrace bold and colorful prints that will make you the view everyone is ooo-ing and ahh-ing over. Sorry sunset and—dare we say—bride, you’ve got some friendly competition!

Our Floral Print Wrap Dress is the ultimate in beach-chic vibes. Its bright and tropical print teamed with tiers of feminine ruffles, is certain to stand out against even the most stunning backdrop.

Maxi Dresses

We can’t think of an easier, breezier silhouette than the maxi. Maxi dresses have that effortless-yet-elevated look that’s just right for seaside “I dos.” Our Smocked Floral Print Dress is so romantic with its tie shoulder straps and smocked bodice. Plus, the floaty skirt will take on gorgeous movement when it catches the sea breeze, making it a perfect choice as a beach wedding guest dress.

Versatile Sundresses

Not ready to max(i) out? We get it, keeping that hem away from the tide is a challenge in itself. Instead, opt for a playful sundress with a mini, midi or high-low hem for the seaside soiree. The beauty of a sundress is just how versatile it is—wear it for the wedding and for brunch later on during your trip.

Our Tie-Front Halter Mini Dress fits the bill. In lightweight cotton fabric with A-line silhouette and a bow at front, there’s never been a dress more ready for dancing barefoot in the sand!

Perfect Finishing Touches

When it’s time to get ready for the weekend’s main event, trade in your pool float for statement accessories. Accent your beach wedding guest dress with beaded earrings, a sparkling handbag or embellished sandals—we recommend flats because we all know heels and sand don’t mix. Save those ankles for the dance floor!
