Nordstrom is my go-to for fall wedding guest dresses, and here’s why. They offer a great range of styles that fit every vibe. You can find something classic or something bold and fun, like a floral maxi. Free shipping and returns make ordering easy.

You might associate floral prints with summer, but I found several floral wedding guest dresses that might make you change your mind.

Its flowy chiffon fabric drapes beautifully, while the wrap-inspired design flatters your figure. The removable tie belt cinches the waist just right, giving you that elegant silhouette. I’m wearing a medium, and it fits true to size. There’s a range of sizes from XXS to XXL, so you’re bound to find your perfect fit.

Fall Wedding Colors You’ll Love: Bold and Beautiful

You can’t go wrong with rich shades like burgundy, emerald, or deep plum when it comes to fall wedding colors. But don’t forget about those eye-catching prints too! This floral mock neck maxi dress I found is a perfect example—bright, fun, and on-trend for fall. Nordstrom has these colors and prints covered, so finding the right one is a breeze.

This dress is a beautiful choice for any fall wedding. The delicate details, like metallic fibers, add just the right amount of glamour to the abstract print. The smocked waist is perfect for accentuating your figure while keeping things comfortable. The three-quarter sleeves with button cuffs give it a touch of elegance. It slips on easily over your head, so getting dressed up is a breeze. I’m wearing a medium, and the fit is spot on, staying true to size. The length is just right, offering a sophisticated look without feeling too formal.

The straw tote bag is a stylish and functional accessory that pairs perfectly with this dress. It’s made from high-quality straw with a raffia-woven surface that gives it a unique texture. The gold-colored hardware and handle chain strap add a touch of luxury. The compact size is just enough to hold your essentials, like your phone, lipstick, and wallet.

The rubber outsole ensures you have a grip, so you can walk confidently while mingling with guests. These pumps are versatile and sleek and have just the right amount of sophistication to elevate your look.

Picking the Perfect Style for Fall Weddings

For fall weddings, picking the best dress can be lots of fun. It’s all about the details! My floral chiffon or classic tweed dress with cap sleeves are perfect for the season. They keep you warm but still look super chic. A wrap dress or a maxi with a fun print is always a good idea if you’re into something flowy.

This sleeveless maxi dress is just the thing for a fall wedding. These sweet shoulder ties add a little extra charm, and the wrap-front bodice is super flattering. I’m wearing a large, which feels comfy and easy to move in, with a nice flowy length. The burgundy floral pattern with a navy backdrop is perfect for the season. This dress will become your go-to choice to look effortlessly stylish without too much fuss.

Now, let’s talk about this beige-sand scarf. It’s made from a super light, silk-blend fabric, and the wispy fringe gives it an airy, almost ethereal vibe. It’s just the right accessory to drape over your shoulders like a shawl when the temperature drops in the evening. Its generous size floats over your outfit, adding a soft touch of romance that complements the dress beautifully.

These Marc Fisher tan suede pumps are all about clean lines with a classic style. The pointy-toe design is timeless, and the 3″ block heel gives you that bit of height without sacrificing comfort. They’re versatile enough to wear with almost anything. I especially love how they pull this whole outfit together, adding a subtle yet polished finish.

The creamy white Coach Pebbled Leather Top Handle Bag is the perfect final touch. It has a top handle that makes it easy to carry and a removable crossbody strap to go hands-free. The polished pebbled leather is refined, and the logo-engraved hardware gives it a classy feel. It’s just the right size to hold all your essentials without being bulky, making it perfect for any special occasion.

Fabrics That Feel as Good as They Look

The fabric really makes the dress, especially in the fall. Nordstrom has lots of variety—from the luxurious feel of velvet to the classic tweed of my Eliza J dress. They’ve got everything you need to stay comfy and look fabulous, no matter the weather. I steered clear of satin, lace, and silk because I wanted a less formal attire.

I’ve already included maxi and midi dresses, so I want to show a knee-length dress. This Eliza J cap sleeve tweed fit-and-flare dress is such a classic! The tweedy texture adds interest, and the fit-and-flare silhouette is always flattering. I love the bateau neckline and cap sleeves—they give the dress a timeless, elegant feel. Plus, it’s got side-seam pockets, which are always a win in my book. I’m wearing a size 12, which fits comfortably while giving me a nice shape.

The radiant red Brahmin handbag is the perfect pop of color to go with this dress. The croc-embossed leather gives it a luxurious feel, and the gleaming hardware makes it stand out. It’s spacious enough to hold everything you need, with a structured shape that keeps it looking sharp. The turn-lock closure is a nice touch, and you can wear it as a crossbody or by the top handles.

For the shoes, I’m wearing the same square-toe sandals from the first look. They’re neutral enough to go with almost anything, but they still have that modern edge with the square toe. Regarding heels, I’ve found that the block heel works great. They’re comfy and chic, making them an excellent choice for a day-to-night look.

Finishing Touches: Accessorizing Your Fall Wedding Look

Accessories are key to pulling your look together. I paired my dresses with a few staples, like the square-toe pumps, and a statement handbag, like the radiant red Brahmin bag. I kept my jewelry simple and let the dresses shine.

This floral mock-neck maxi dress is all about making a statement. The bright, colorful floral print really pops, making it perfect for adding some fun to a fall wedding. In fact, you could easily wear it to summer weddings, too. Plus, the mock neck gives it a modern twist, while the tie belt helps to give you that flattering fit. I’m wearing a medium, and it fits great. Additionally, thanks to the ankle-grazing length, it feels light and flowy, with just the right amount of movement.

The white scarf is the same silk-blend beauty as before. It’s just the right touch of elegance to drape over your shoulders for added warmth when the evening cools down. Furthermore, the light, airy fabric with its delicate fringe makes it a versatile accessory. It’s perfect for adding a soft, ethereal vibe to this bold dress. Whenever it is an outdoor ceremony, I always have a scarf, wrap, or shawl on hand.

As for the shoes, I’m sticking with the square-toe pumps from earlier. They’re a great neutral base that doesn’t compete with the vibrant dress but still adds that chic, modern edge with their sleek design and comfortable block heels.

With so many stunning options, finding the perfect fall wedding guest dress can be a breeze. Whether you’re drawn to classic styles or love something with more flair, there’s a dress just right for you. Pair your outfit with the perfect accessories, and you’re all set to celebrate in style, feeling confident and looking fabulous.
