8 Celeb-Approved Wedding Guest Outfit Ideas to Try RN

Forget the bride — finding the perfect getup to rock at the slew of “I dos” dominating your social calendar this season can be just as difficult as hunting down the ultimate wedding dress to suit your style (you know, your own personal version of finding “the one”). The list of wedding fashion dos and don’ts is just as long as that to-do list waiting for you come Monday morning, which isn’t exactly a prospect that has you shivering with excitement. But before you enter into a state of sartorial paralysis (it happens to the best of us), take a step back and just breathe. Pre-wedding jitters (again, for the wedding guest, duh — the struggle is real) are a non-factor when you have this foolproof list on standby. We looked to the red carpet, or rather, your fave celebs’ Instagrams, for a bit of style enlightenment. Consider your what-to-wear-to-a-wedding questions officially answered. Keep reading for eight star-approved outfits to rock all wedding season long (and beyond).

Yep, she did it again. T Swift, do you ever get it wrong? This strapless A-line number she rocked at a recent wedding (where she surprised the bride and groom, no less) is straight-up wedding guest #goals.

1. Trina Turk Women’s Audrey Fiori Jacquard Strapless Dress ($388): When in doubt, look to flowery A-line frocks for an effortless outfit that nails it every time. Between the timeless appeal and fun flair, you really can’t go wrong. Pair this vibrant asymmetric number with an elegant updo, sleek choker necklace and embellished block heels for the perfect balance of feminine elegance and RN edge.

Solange’s Metallic Trousers

Who says you have to stick to sleek shift dresses and ethereal maxi styles? Straight-up stun when you step into the venue (without stealing the bride’s thunder, of course) by taking a note out of Solange’s style book (girl knows what’s up). We’re swooning hard over this daring blazer and glitzy trouser combo that’s dressy enough to wear to a formal affair without donning an over-the-top gown.

2. Alice & Olivia Arthur Sequin Pant ($495): Going to the chapel and we’re gonna get… sequin pants. These shimmery trousers read life of the party, so what better time to bust them out than your girl’s unforgettable fête? Team them with a tailored blazer, slinky silk cami and metallic heels for a show-stopping look that’s a shoo-in for best-dressed guest.

Poppy Delevingne’s Flowy Floral Maxi Dress

As if knocking her own wedding day look out of the park wasn’t enough, Poppy Delevingne knows a thing or two about pulling together an enviable wedding guest ensemble. Exhibit A: this airy bohemian gown with endless free-wheelin’ flair.

3. Reformation Laura Dress ($278): Between the OMG-worthy neckline and ultra-feminine silhouette, there’s a whole lot to love about this throw-on-and-go dress. The innate ease is so essential when you have more than one wedding on your summer to-do list, not to mention that it speaks to your lazy girl style sensibilities. Dress it up with dazzling drop earrings and strappy heels for a swanky soiree at a historic estate, or dress it down for a backyard bash with lace-up sandals and romantic beach babe waves.

Emma Watson’s Sophisticated Slit Maxi Dress

A little bit ’90s and a whole lot of whoa, this sassy and sweet maxi dress donned by actress and UN Women Goodwill Ambassador Emma Watson is a win all around (especially when chokers and berry lipstick are involved).

4. Keepsake Billboard Dress ($200): Pulling together a flawless wedding guest getup is as easy as throwing on this flowery stunner. The ultra-modern silhouette lives up to your haute standards, while the high neckline and peek-a-boo slit add a trend-right touch to the style equation. For a garden reception or a classic seaside venue, soften the sharp lines and streamlined aesthetic with loose, romantic curls, natural-looking makeup and delicate jewelry.

Kate Bosworth’s Tuxedo Jumpsuit

Your favorite one-and-done pieces aren’t just destined for laid-back off-duty activities like backyard barbecues or leisurely picnics in the park. Do like Kate Bosworth — a style icon in her own right — and test drive an elegant jumpsuit or two-piece number for your next dressed-up event, for a classy look that will set you apart from the rest.

5. ASOS Tall Sleeveless Tuxedo Wrap Jumpsuit ($73): LBDs don’t have anything on this tailored scene-stealer. With It-girl appeal and timeless elegance all rolled into one, it’s guaranteed to become your new signature style move, whether you’re attending rooftop nuptials or a ballroom blowout. Don’t hesitate to pair it with a delicate lariat, embellished clutch and classic ankle strap heels for an effortless ensemble that delivers every single time.

Rihanna’s Lilac Bridesmaid Dress

A post shared by badgalriri (@badgalriri) on

Okay, so maybe you’re not a member of the wedding party, but Rihanna’s pale purple gown is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to dressing for your bestie’s nuptials. The pastel hue is soft, romantic and perfect for waterfront ceremonies and twilight dinners overlooking breathtaking vistas.

6. Nasty Gal Rope Fiend Maxi Dress ($98): Hello, gorgeous. This airy lilac number is downright swoon-inducing and a must for your summer wedding lineup. Ladylike and lovely with non-stop sass woven right in (just check out that back), it can be dressed to the nines with glistening drop earrings and shimmery heels, or dressed down with strappy sandals and tassel-tastic drops for a casual celebration on the beach.

Lena Dunham’s Vintage Frock

Proof that on-point style transcends trends and time, this vintage floral number that Lena Dunham rocked back in 2003 at her senior prom (girl did her own thang even back then) exudes old-world charm and class.

7. Trollied Dolly Super Swingy 70’S Floral Dress ($94): Okay, so it’s not vintage Dior, but this ’70s-inspired dress is a definite DO for laid-back garden party ceremonies or pre-wedding festivities. Pair with tights and a suede jacket once temperatures drop to make the most of this versatile getup.

Ciara’s Wild Maxi Dress

Leopard print is a neutral as far as we’re concerned, and we think it’s safe to say that Ciara agrees. The singer showed up to a friend’s wedding rockin’ this exotic ensemble with beautifully coiffed waves and minimalist baubles for a show-stopping look that felt perfectly balanced.

8. Suboo Leopard Halterneck Silk Maxi ($403): Save this scene-stealer for seaside nuptials or a rooftop soiree overlooking the city skyline. Keep the rest of your look pared down and polished to achieve a sophisticated aesthetic and avoid going too over the top (AKA drawing side-eye from the bride).

One of the many difficult things about having a COVID wedding was that I didn't get to fully enjoy being engaged. Not that I didn't enjoy it by any means, but I didn't get to do the typical "bridal" events that most people got to do since everyone and everything was on lockdown. No extreme Bachelorette trip, no huge showers, and definitely not a big reception with a bunch of friends.

As a fashion lover, this means I didn't get to wear a million all-white outfits and make being engaged my whole personality — like I would at this point in my life. With that being said, I can't help but see how many amazing bridal pieces are out there on the market...and it's making me wanna get married (to my husband) all over again. Since I can't, here are all the bridal outfits pieces that I can't get enough of right now. From bridal shoes to bachelorette looks, these are the pieces I've got my eye on!

Bridal Dresses

Reformation

Reformation Pike Satin Dress

This dress is sleek, chic, and so perfect for fall and winter wedding vibes. Whether you're going out on a classy dinner with your girlfriends on a bachelorette trip, or you're getting ready for the toast at your rehearsal dinner, I love this satin bridal look! It's honestly the definition of "simplicity is elegance"!

Anthropologie

BHLDN Pearl Drop-Waist Mini Dress

Maybe I'm biased because BHLDN is where I got my wedding dress, but they truly have some of the most classy and fun options out there that also aren't exorbitant in price. This dress is under $500, and would make for the perfect Bachelorette party dress! It's chic, on-trend, and so fun with the short, tulle skirt and pearl detailing.

Nordstrom

Lilysilk The Vivi Knit Dress

Coworkers throwing you a bridal shower? This demure little number is perfect for those more modest bridal moments. You still get a fun, flirty, off-the-shoulder moment, but the tea length skirt adds a buttoned-up vibe that's perfectly appropriate. While this looks great with a pair of strappy heels, I could also see this knit number looking amazing with some tall brown boots in the fall!

Abercrombie

Abercrombie Off-The-Shoulder Long-Sleeve Mini Dress

Having an intimate courthouse elopement? Looking for a lowkey afterparty dress? Whatever the occasion, this Abercrombie option fits the bill! I love the elegant off-the-shoulder sleeves — it gives you a great way to show off your jewelry. Plus, the mini dress will let you dance all night long to celebrate your officiated love!

Dôen

Dôen Jessica Dress

This dress is that is giving vintage bridal in a unique, not-so-typical way. The contrasting black lace juxtaposes the white really well, and makes it less overtly bridal, so you can definitely wear it again! Add a vintage satin drawstring bag to really go with the throwback look!

Dôen

Dôen Donetta Dress

The bridal dress of my dreams! It reaches all of the categories you could want: midi, silk, and has a beautiful bridal bow! Can't you just imagine this with a fur coat overtop for the fall and winter?! It would be truly heavenly. Wear this one for an intimate bridal event, or even a rehearsal dinner.

Nordstrom

Reformation X Kacey Musgraves Dress

Kacey Musgraves just gets it. Her collab with Reformation was absolutely amazing, and when I saw this dress I immediately knew it would be perfect for anything bridal related. From the puff sleeves, to the lace, to the bows on the sides — it's perfection! I could 100% see this one looking incredible as a courthouse wedding option!

Abercrombie

Abercrombie Sequin Squareneck Mini Dress

Having a GNO to celebrate your upcoming nuptials? This sequin mini dress is the perfect way to say, "Buy me a shot — I'm getting married." Whether you're having a summer soiree or a winter night on the town, it's versatile enough to match all of your bachelorette party needs!

Nordstrom

House of CB Mesh Dress

If you're wanting a sexier option for a Bachelorette dress then this one is definitely for you! It has a more form-fitting cut with the mesh fabric and corseted bodice. Honestly, this is a 10/10 for me — I just know it's gonna look so good as we head into the fall and winter seasons!

Abercrombie & Fitch

Abercrombie & Fitch Strapless Dress

She's chic, she's beauty, and she's grace. I love the elevated and luxurious look of this bridal outfit — AND, it's on sale! To say I'm obsessed would be an understatement. This dress with a dainty clutch and slingback heel would be perfection for a reception dress!

Reformation

Reformation Tetty Dress

Can I get a little commotion for the dress? This Reformation mini will have you ending your reception with a bang! The long, mesh sleeves paired with the feathered bottom makes for SUCH a fun afterparty bridal outfit! Plus, you won't have to worry about sweating too much on the dance floor with the mini skirt and the lighter sleeves. Win-win!

Dynamite

Dynamite Clothing Tweed Dress

I'm convinced every bride needs a tweed, mini dress for bridal season — they go well for so many different occasions. I even own one right now just because I find them so cute and wearable. For this dress, I would style with ballet flats, and a sweater over the shoulders for very French look! I can totally picture this at your bridal shower brunch where all your mom's BFFs can't stop complimenting you!

Reformation

Reformation Fitz Two Piece

This is casual piece that makes you want to be a bride for just a bit longer... If I were to get married again, then this would be high up on my list since it's a two piece. You can wear it separately or together to really embrace the whole "white" and "bridal" theme no matter the setting!

Reformation

Reformation Jeany Silk Dress

Another great contender for a rehearsal dinner or reception dress from Reformation! This pairing with the fur coat and mesh, black heels is divine! It' giving the most wonderful White Christmas vibes that would be so ideal with anyone having a winter wedding. Grab this chic, classy bridal outfit ASAP!

Bridal Accessories

Anthropologie

Anthropologie Lucy Satin Pearl Bag

I love, love, love this bag. I haven't seen a purse scream "bridal" more than this! It would make for the most amazing day-of bag, or simply your bag to carry for any bridal occasion. Plus, for $110 that's a fairly good deal for how much wear you'll get out of it.

Cuyana

Cuyana Mini Bow Bag

Looking for something a little less showy as the pearl option? I love this understated option from Cuyana! The bow top and gold chain combo are so gorgeous together! Plus, pebbled Italian leather is gonna last you way longer than you big day!

Reformation

Reformation Natasha Heels

For any bridal events, I would opt for these heels, because they are simple, clean-cute, super bridal, and very easy to wear with almost any outfit option! They are so reminiscent of 90s vintage heels that I'm constantly searching for on Ebay. I might purchase these just for a good date-night heel.

Nordstrom

Dolce Vita Reyes Mary Jane

Looking for some flats to pair with your bridal outfits? These Dolce Vitas are perfection! The square toe and Mary Jane style are so on-trend! Plus, the profile is simple enough to go with just about every look you could throw together!

Anthropologie

ViBi VENEZiA Bow Mary Janes

These bow mary janes seem very bridal to me, and they get bonus points for also being great for daily wear too! They're super comfortable, and give the bridal touch with the bows. And guess what?! They can count as you're "something blue"!

I can totally understand falling for a costar. One scene gazing into each other's eyes, and (as the kids say), I'd be asking, "What are we?" Zendaya & Tom Holland and Ashley Park & Paul Forman both met on the sets of their most famous projects (Spider-Man and Emily in Paris, in case you were wondering), and this year's biggest movie event also features a brand new celebrity couple: Ariana Grande & Ethan Slater.

The co-stars made headlines when they ended their respective marriages and started dating each other, and Ethan Slater finally spoke out on the response to their relationship. Here's what he had to say, and the latest news on this couple.

After People reported Ariana and Ethan were now in a relationship of their own, Lilly told Page Six that “[Ariana’s] the story, really. Not a girl’s girl.

There is no one on this earth with a better heart...I’m 31 years old and I’m not a perfect person, but I am definitely deeply good, and I’m proud of who I’m becoming. I will never let disreputable evil tabloids ruin my life or my perception of what is real and good.”

October 30, 2024 — Ethan Slater Finally Speaks Out About His Relationship With Ariana Grande

Almost two years after meeting Ariana Grande, Ethan Slater finally opened up about their relationship in a new interview with GQ. “Obviously, it was a really super big year and I think there was something that was really difficult about things in your private life being commented on and looked at by the public," he says. "There were a lot of big changes in private lives that were really happening, so it’s really hard to see people who don’t know anything about what’s happening commenting on it and speculating, and then getting things wrong about the people you love. So just to address that part of it, that feels really hard."

But the clouds also came with silver linings. “Of course, it was an amazing year and a really beautiful thing, and I’m just really excited," he continues. "I’m just really, really proud of Ari and the work she’s done on this. She’s poured herself into it. I’m really proud that I got to be there for that part of it, and I’m really excited to be there for this next step of it when the world gets to see the amazing thing that she did.”

There's one that's seared into my memory of, in Doctor Dillamond's classroom, I don't remember what Ari said but she got Cynthia [Erivo] and it's just the two of them across the way and they're staring at each other and she got her so good. There's something really wonderful about breaking. It's delightful."

He also praised Ariana and Cynthia for how they welcomed the rest of the cast their first days on set. "[They] would hug everyone who came in," he continues.

The search for the perfect mother-of-the-bride dress is such an exciting journey. You want your final dress to be elegant, stylish, and sentimental, too! As the proud mother, you deserve to shine just as brightly as the bride herself, and finding a dress that reflects your personality (but also complements the wedding's theme) is key.

Whether you’re aiming for a mother-of-the-bride dress that's more traditional, modern, or a blend of both, we've got you covered with these 10 stunning styles that'll make you feel confident and beautiful on your daughter's special day.

Azazie A-Line Pleated Mikado Floor-Length Dress

This gorgeous $169 gown is totally wedding appropriate and oh-so elegant. It boasts a skirt that lands at floor length, a unique asymmetrical neckline, and a long leg slit all in a soft, non-stretchy material that feels just as great as it looks. The rich grape purple color will make you feel stunning! This dress zips up conveniently in the back.

Baltic Born Arianna Maxi Dress

You get the best of both worlds with this affordable (just $68!) MOTB dress. While the long sleeves have a good amount of coverage, the flattering v-neck and high leg slit allow you to show more skin. This flowy red number is made from a super soft and stretchy fabric, and has smocked detailing around the waistline to give your body definition.

Mac Duggal Long Sleeve Sequin Trumpet Gown

This dress just screams elegance! It's as sequined and stunning as can be. The long skirt flaunts a slight, sweeping train while the neckline is fairly no-frills. This neutral pick ($598) is fully lined for maximum all-day comfort.

Dessy Collection One-Shoulder Satin Gown

The knotted design on this $261 gown draws visual interest and flatters your figure beyond compare. The trendy one-shoulder look will also make you stand out without overshadowing the bride's get-up. This design includes a long maxi hem that grazes the floor. It's fitted around the bodice and slightly flares out past the waist, but isn't quite a traditional a-line silhouette.

David's Bridal Studio Cap Sleeve Allover Sequin Sheath Dress

Want to be drenched in shiny sequins? This is the dress for you. It has cap sleeves, an open back, and a sultry leg slit that lets you step and move with ease. Additionally, the fabric has some stretch to it and secures in the back with a discreet zipper. This pick is available on sale for 60 (was $200).

La Femme Off The Shoulder Trumpet Gown

This $328 dress is all about showing some skin – not a bad thing for a wedding, as long as it's done tastefully! This elegant off-the-shoulder design is crafted from a satin-y fabric, so it has some shine to it. It's most fitted around the bust and tummy before falling to a full-length trumpet skirt.

Mac Duggal Beaded Stripe Mesh A-Line Gown

These playful see-through mesh sleeves are everything. The stripes (along with some pretty glamorous sequins) also play a role in shaping your final MOTB look! This long dress ($598) is gathered around an empire waist to elongate your figure further.

Alfred Sung One-Shoulder A-Line Gown

This a-line skirt on this $239 dress gives your look much-needed breathing and moving room. It has a more polished look, thanks to the smooth fabric and waist sash. You'd never guess it by looking at it, but this pick also has pockets! The gorgeous green fabric is non-stretchy but looks so flattering when worn.

Dress The Population Janette Sequin Long Sleeve Mermaid Gown

There is truly no shortage of shininess with this one. It's the ultimate piece to match with other accessories and shoes, depending on the wedding theme. This $438 dress has a boat neck that falls to a v-shaped back as well as modest long sleeves that land right above the wrists. The high leg slit breaks up the look perfectly, too!

Alex Evenings Embellished Sleeve Knot Front Jersey Gown

This $199 dress has dark navy, drapey sleeves with sequin details, as well as a striking knot detail at the waistline. Since it's naturally flowy, the slightly stretchy material it's made from only amps up the comfort levels.

It's official: John Krasinski is now PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive for 2024. If you ask us, John Krasinski will always be Jim from The Office, but I think this new distinction will do just fine, too. Last year Patrick Dempsey won the top spot, giving us silver fox sex appeal, and we love that PEOPLE went in a different direction with our favorite actor-director this time. Here's everything to know about this fine gentleman — including what his wife, Emily Blunt, has to say about it all.

Scroll to learn about PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive for 2024!

John Krasinski shares his thoughts on being PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

No one knows how to do dead-pan humor like John Krasinski (unless your name is Ryan Reynolds, of course 😉). His response to winning was, "Just immediate blackout, actually. Zero thoughts," (via PEOPLE). He followed up with, "That's not how I wake up, thinking, ‘Is this the day that I'll be asked to be Sexiest Man Alive?’ And yet it was the day you guys did it. You guys have really raised the bar for me."

Of course Emily Blunt couldn't resist making a little joke...

We know Emily Blunt has a great sense of humor too, so it comes as no surprise that she had a little something to say to John about his new title. Besides being "very excited" about his win, she apparently told him she'd willingly plaster his face all over their home, wallpaper-style (via PEOPLE). The Jack Ryan actor said, "My children will love that, it won’t be weird at all."

TODAY also reports the actor revealed Emily may pile on the housework given all this newfound attention. "I think it's going to make me do more household chores. After this comes out, she'll be like, ‘All right, that means you’re going to really earn it here at home.'" We don't see a problem with that!

Here's everything Sexiest Man Alive, John Krasinski is working on right now:

Jonny Cournoyer/Prime Video

He recently wrote, directed, and starred in this year's IF — a film Ryan Reynolds also appears in — which follows a young girl's introduction to a vast world of imaginary friends. It almost feels like the heartwarming TV show Foster's Home of Imaginary Friends, albeit the young girl is dealing with possibly losing her only living parent.

Next up, fans will get to see John star in Fountain of Youth alongside Natalie Portman, according to Deadline. They'll star as a brother and sister who are determined to claim the actual Fountain of Youth for themselves.

Deadline also reports that he'll take the lead role in the upcoming Jack Ryan film. A premiere date hasn't been announced yet, but we do know Amazon MGM Studios is behind it!
