Nordstrom
The Waterfront Venue In Long Island City
Nothing complements skyline views like a classic LBD (and an open bar).
Eloquii
The Low-key Downtown Affair
After nailing your witness duties at City Hall, you’re headed to the West Village for a celebratory lunch. Keep it simple with an effortless wrap dress.
Revolve
The Dreamy Garden Gathering
It’s not a rule that you have to wear florals and/or ruffles to a garden wedding. But why fight the urge when it feels so right?
Saks Fifth Avenue
The Posh Manhattan Blowout
The dress code is black tie. The champagne is Moët. And your gown is a stunner.
Net-a-Porter
The Hamptons Bash
When the invitation says something nonsensical like “beach formal,” throw on a caftan-esque mini and some sand-friendly block heels and call it a day.
Shopbop
The Rustic Barn Upstate
What goes with fireflies, mason jars and a bonfire? A carefree eyelet frock—that looks just as good with bare feet as it does with heels.
Nordstrom
The Converted Brooklyn Warehouse
Dainty and demure? Please. This calls for a killer jumpsuit (that makes your legs look miles long) and a pair of statement earrings.
Revolve
The Destination Wedding
Your best bet is something made of travel-friendly, wrinkle-resistant material…just kidding. This is your time to wear something totally stunning that’ll shine against whatever exotic backdrop you’re headed to.
