Nordstrom Rack Summer Wedding Guest Dresses

As a wedding planner, I’m typically working behind the scenes at celebrations. So, I get more excited than most when I’m invited to attend a wedding. I truly love watching friends and family recite vows, spending the night on the dance floor, and eating delicious food (of course). But one of my favorite wedding moments happens before I’m even at the event: choosing what to wear. And my go-to retailer for years has been Nordstrom Rack

The retailer is my hack for finding beautiful wedding guest dresses at surprisingly impressive discounts, so it’s never hard to find something I love at a price I’m actually excited about paying. In case you’re also shopping for your next summer wedding guest dress, below I’m sharing 16 styles that should be on your radar—and they’re on sale for up to 73 percent off.

Dresses with lace details always feel a little more elevated and special, and I can’t get enough of this $60 Halston dress. The length hits just above the knee, making it perfect for cocktail or formal attire weddings, and I love that the lace lines the bottom of the dress. Bonus: The boatneck silhouette means you’ll easily be able to wear a normal bra and keep the straps hidden underneath.

Dresses with prints are some of my favorites to see when I’m working weddings—florals especially. This pretty dress is by Calvin Klein, a designer my mom and I both love, and it has flattering V-necklines in the front and the back. I’m obsessed with the tie details on the shoulders, and I also love that this style has an elastic waist for added comfort. But, I have to admit, it’s the pockets that truly take the cake!

I’m a huge fan of Diane Keaton, and this Astr the Label dress looks like an ode to the actress’s “Queen of Polka Dots” title. The corset-style bodice with its sweetheart neckline is flirty, while the tie straps and tulle skirt make it fun. Even though I’m more inclined to wear color to weddings, I love that this dress is black—it makes an elegant statement that’s perfect for a formal setting.

Wrap dresses (even faux-wrap dresses) look so flattering on plenty of different body types, and this London Times style has the bonus of a floral print. The ruffle neckline and hemline offer feminine touches that add interesting texture to the dress, and the pink-and-green color combination is perfect for summer and even through early fall. Just like the model in the photo on the site, I would style this dress with nude heels.

I try to purchase wedding guest dresses I can restyle for other events in the future, and this timeless necktie midi dress is one you’ll wear for years to come. It has a sleek, modern, timeless A-line skirt design that’ll look on-point at a formal wedding. What I love about it, though, is you can easily don this for a work event, too. If you hope to wear this dress often, opt for a classic color like navy or black, but if you would rather make a statement, scoop it up in Fair Green or Arresting Burgundy—all for up to 60 percent off. 

Options are key when you have an upcoming wedding, so there are plenty of additional summer wedding guest dresses to shop below from Nordstrom Rack. Just make sure to fill your cart quickly because these up-to-73-percent-off deals won’t stay in stock for long.
