Affordable Wedding Guest Dresses
Dresses For Under $120 That Solve The “What I Am Going To Wear To This Wedding?” Dilemma.

Don’t spend a fortune on a formal dress for a wedding. These dresses cost less than $120 and you’ll be able to wear them again.

Summer is definitely wedding season. You probably started getting the “save the date” invites in the mail back when it was still freezing out, instructing you to leave a Saturday in July free. Now the time is here, and you need a dress to wear to the occasion. Sometimes picking out a wedding guest outfit feels as complicated as picking out an actual wedding dress. You want something appropriate, flattering, fairly comfortable, and inexpensive. When you add in transportation, gifts, and all of the other wedding costs, you can’t be shelling out big bucks for a dress. Thankfully there are lots of stylish options that are well under the $150 mark.

Here are 15 wedding guest-appropriate dresses that won’t break the bank:

1. Cutout Dress ($100, & Other Stories)

& other Stories Overlap Dress

If you’re not one for feathers, sparkles, sequins, and whatever other things designers find in the craft box to glue on dresses, this frock is free from embellishment. The overlapping neckline and crisscross back are the standout details.

2. Truly You Contrast Mesh Skater Dress With Floral Applique ($82, ASOS)

Truly You Mesh Skater Dress
