I'm getting my looks ready for all my upcoming weddings, and Lulus is one of my favorite one-stop shops for all things wedding guest outfits. While the brand covers all types of fashion, it really thrives in all things bridal and wedding guest, no matter the wedding dress code. From shoes to accessories to the most gorgeous dresses, you can add your favorites to cart without having to shop in a bunch of different tabs. Best of all, with the exception of a few handfuls of dresses, most are under $100. You can shop summer wedding guest dresses or dresses with pockets, or even narrow your search for specific style details like ruffles, strapless or a color you're set on wearing. Lulus dresses have a very feminine vibe (think ASTR the Label and Show Me Your Mumu), so if you're on the hunt for something edgy, this may not be the shopping experience for you.

Want to know which buzzy products are *really* worth buying? Sign up for our shopping newsletter to uncover our favorite finds.

What We Don't Like

Lulus

This dress is fun meets chic, from the sleek silhouette and fitted bodice to the bold shade of purple and ruffled hemline, it has all the aspects of a gorgeous summer wedding guest dress. The midi length may fit a little longer on petite frames, but the length could be easily hemmed if needed.

2. Lulus My Favorite Day Midi Dress

What We Like

  • sweetheart neckline
  • fitted waist

What We Don't Like

  • only fits up to C bra cup

Lulus

Lulus has some gorgeous floral dresses and this midi has a tulip-style skirt with a high-low hem. The sweetheart neckline has a V-cut center to show a little extra skin and the straps are adjustable for you to customize your best fit. "Snagged this for an outdoor wedding," says a Lulus customer. "It was so comfortable and easy to wear. I'm generally petite, but this still fits in length with some heels." The belted waist will show off your curves without being too tight or form-fitting, so you can feel comfortable dancing all night long.

Best Criss-Cross Back

3. Lulus Romance That Wows Maxi

What We Like

  • high slit
  • criss-cross back

What We Don't Like

  • may be too low cut for some
  • runs slightly small

Lulus

From the beautiful pink print to the flirty organza material, this maxi is fun, elegant and vibrant. It has a criss-cross back and adjustable spaghetti straps. If the magenta shade isn’t your favorite, there’s also a dusty blue colorway that you may like better. One shopper raves, "I have NEVER received more compliments than I did when wearing this dress! It fit like a glove and accentuated all the right areas. I am a little on the shorter side, but some higher heels were the easy solution." Reviewers note that the dress is stunning and fits well but the waist is a bit narrow, so if you have a wider ribcage, it may not be a great option for you.

  • Size Range: XS to XL

Best Ruffled Hemline

4. Lulus Always Enchanting Midi

What We Like

  • floral print
  • ruffled hem

What We Don't Like

  • a little low cut for some

Lulus

This pattern and color screams “summer” to me. The chiffon material is lightweight and breezy for a sunny day. The dress is longer in the back than it is in the front, and the straps are adjustable for a more customizable fit. “The dress is so well constructed that it enhanced my curves. The color is great and the dress even has some golden sparkly thread woven into it,” says one customer. Most note that the neckline can be a little low cut for some personal preferences, so double sided tape or a pin may be a great solution if you feel the same way.

Sleekest Trumpet Style Midi

5. Lulus How Much I Care Midi

What We Like

  • off-the-shoulder
  • trumpet silhouette

What We Don't Like

  • can fit very tight

Lulus

Classy and sleek, this style is great for the minimalist who wants a little bit of flair. The trumpet style shows off your shape and the bottom gives your legs enough room to breathe while you’re celebrating. It has a midi length and the flare hem has a slightly ruffled silhouette. The off-the-shoulder short sleeves will highlight your décolletage beautifully, so don’t forget some sparkles or pretty jewelry. Most reviewers say it fits true to size, but I always recommend referring to the size chart before adding to cart just in case.

Best Wrap Waist Dress

6. Lulus Reinette Midi

What We Like

  • high slit
  • pleated waistline

What We Don't Like

  • may fit tight in chest

Lulus

Simple and timeless, this dress is a great option for anyone who wants a versatile piece you can wear over and over. The wrap-style layered waist is flattering for most figures, plus, it’s a comfortable silhouette to wear for a full evening of wedding festivities. It also comes in seven colors. “I got so many compliments when wearing this at a wedding,” writes one reviewer. “It was a bit tight on my bust, but it was nice that I didn't have to wear a bra and the straps were adjustable.”

  • Material: polyester
  • Size Range: XXS to 3XL

Best Ruffled Sleeve Dress

7. Lulus Molinetto Maxi

What We Like

  • plunging neckline
  • tiered skirt

What We Don't Like

  • runs large

Lulus

Stun your date in this romantic maxi gown. It has a tiered skirt and is made of a delicate lace material. I love the ruffles and deep V-neckline for a bit of romance, and the high-coverage back will keep you feeling secure all night long. One happy customer writes, “This dress is stunning. I'm on the petite side, so it fits me as a full length (which is what I was aiming for). The color is rich and the lace is beautiful but sturdy. I'm attending a black-tie wedding next month and it fits the bill to be elegant enough for the event without spending hundreds of dollars.”

Best Bustier Style Bodice

8. Lulus Loveliest Looks Midi

What We Like

  • tie straps
  • jacquard print

What We Don't Like

  • runs small

Lulus

I'm loving the dainty style of this sweet dress, and the dusty blue shade is gorgeous for an outdoor wedding. The tie straps are functional, so you can adjust if needed, and the bustier is larger than on other dresses. I own this dress and wear a size 36D bra and I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the cups of this bustier dress. I’ve tried a lot of bustier dresses and the cups tend to be very small and my chest doesn’t fit fully.

Best Floral Mini Dress

9. Lulus So Stunning Mini

What We Like

  • bold floral print
  • puff sleeves
  • structured skirt

What We Don't Like

  • may be too short on some frames

Lulus

A sweet mini dress is a lovely option for a summer wedding. The floral pattern is fun and seasonal, and it has a little bit of metallic threading throughout for a bit of sparkle. The puff sleeves give this fitted frock some dimension, and the darted cups that run down the front of the dress offer some structure as well.

Best Pleated Midi Dress

10. Lulus Totally Charming Midi Dress

What We Like

  • pleated skirt
  • halter neckline
  • keyhole opening below chest

What We Don't Like

  • no plus sizes available

Lulus

A halter and open back is a great combo for summertime, and this emerald green shade is a total stunner. The front has a crossover bodice and a keyhole opening at the waist for a sexy touch. The material is pleated to add some texture, and the A-line skirt will be a blast to spin in on the dance floor. One Lulus customer shares, "I felt so confident and danced all night in this dress without fear of a boob popping out! I did use fashion tape just to make sure it was symmetrical but loved it! Also was not heavy around the neck like some halters can be. I had to try on a lot of dresses to find one that fit my big boobs but still flatter everywhere else."

Best Mockneck Midi

11. Lulus Floral Dressed Up Midi

What We Like

  • sheer neckline
  • short sleeves

What We Don't Like

  • no slit

Lulus

If you’re looking for a dress with a bit more coverage, you’ll love this pick, which has a mock neck and no slit. The short sleeves are a smidge longer than a typical short-sleeve dress and they have a little extra movement so they won’t cling to your arms. The lightweight material almost feels like a chiffon, so it will keep you cool all day long.

What We Like

  • ruffle sleeves

What We Don't Like

  • runs a smidge long

Lulus

This simple but classic mini has a ruffled, layered hemline and flutter sleeves for a cute feminine touch. “I got this dress for a wedding at the beginning of my pregnancy and it was so comfortable to wear throughout the night,” says reviewer Paige K. If the navy isn’t your favorite, you can grab it in blush. Some reviewers also note that it isn't as short as it looks in the photos and has a more "appropriate" mini length.

13. Lulus Good Times Only Maxi Dress

What We Like

  • one shoulder
  • high slit

What We Don't Like

  • slit may be too high on longer legs

Lulus

I love a good LBD, and this style is a beautiful pick for a black tie or formal wedding and is a sleek, sexy style that can be worn to many events. “It’s the perfect black maxi that lets me have fun with accessories and change up the look, like a bold pop of color with a shoe, and best of all, it’s super comfortable,” reports PureWow's Senior Audience Development Strategist Mary Rogers.

Best Ruched Dress

14. Lulus Irresistible Presence Midi

What We Like

  • ruched skirt
  • halter neckline

What We Don't Like

  • not available in plus sizes

Lulus

This flattering silhouette will accentuate your shape and the billowing bodice adds some dimension. It has a small side slit to give your legs some room to move without showing too much skin. I got this for a June wedding last summer with hopes that it would make my baby bump look cute, and it definitely did the trick without pulling or gapping in weird places. Plus, the material is super stretchy and comfortable.

Best Boatneck Dress

15. Lulus Infinite Invites Maxi

What We Like

  • flutter sleeves
  • open back

What We Don't Like

  • no stretch
  • limited stock

Lulus

A pretty powder blue dress is perfect for highlighting your summer glow at any weddings you have around the corner. You’ll get a full coverage, flattering fit in the front, complemented by cute flutter sleeves, while the back is open to show just a little bit of skin. It has a boat neckline and the cups are darted to give your chest some shape. "Very comfortable dress. The fabric feels very soft and it has a combination of sweet blue color and an unexpected sexy open back," says one customer.

Best for a Beach Wedding

16. Lulus In Love Forever Maxi

What We Like

  • criss-cross back
  • flowy silhouette

What We Don't Like

  • no chest support

Lulus

This flowy, wrap-style dress is the beach wedding guest dress of my dreams. It’s decorated with a ruffled hem and a high slit that will look gorgeous in the ocean breeze. The neckline is quite low, so if you have a larger chest, you’ll want to utilize the criss-cross lace-up back to tighten the straps. Shopper Jenna M. says, “[It’s] even better than I expected! [It] fits great and the back is adjustable, so it would work for a range of sizes. [The] only downside is you have to wear a very specific or no bra with it.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How Do You Decide What to Wear as a Wedding Guest?

While style is subjective, following the dress code is a must. And Stitch Fix expert stylist Amberly Reese concurs. “No matter the dress code, guests should wear something that makes them feel their best while still honoring the couple’s wedding attire requests,” she says. If the couple’s dress code isn’t listed on their wedding invitation or website, take a peek at the wedding venue’s Instagram or website and make a judgment call. You'll also want to consider the season and location to make sure your look fits the weather forecast. “If it’s outdoors on a hot day, you’ll want to avoid fabrics that are too thick or aren't breathable,” Reese tells me. “I always recommend my clients choose a dress they can dance and move freely in—silhouettes that are too tight, short or restricting should be avoided to ensure you’re able to have fun and not worry about what you have on.”

What Are the Best Fabrics to Avoid Overheating?

Staying cool is key for an outdoor wedding during warmer months, especially if you’re groovin’ on the dance floor. Opting for lightweight and breathable fabrics will help you not sweat through your dress. Here, a few fabrics that are made for breathability and won’t weigh you down.

  • Chiffon: Super lightweight and sheer (but not see-through, since it’s lined with a lightweight slip underneath), chiffon is made for breathability and low heat retention.
  • Satin: This material can easily dress up a simple silhouette, and has a lightweight feel while still looking luxurious and expensive.
  • Rayon: The semi-synthetic fibers make up a lightweight weave and it’s made to be breathable since it doesn’t retain heat.
  • Polyester: This is a common pick for affordable fashion pieces since it’s pretty cheap to obtain and easy to work with. It’s a lightweight material and is very breathable.

What's Lulus' Return Policy?

In the United States, you’re eligible to return your items within 21 days upon receipt of your order for a full refund with a provided return label. Check out the brand’s return policy page for more information.
