There are so many questions surrounding wedding dress codes. Is it appropriate to wear a short dress? Are you allowed to wear something sparkly? And what exactly is the deal with wearing white? While figuring out what to wear to your friend's wedding can seem impossible, we've gotten into the groove of things over the years, thanks to all of the weddings we've attended.

From lace midi dresses that are simple yet elegant enough for a backyard wedding to shimmery gowns that are perfect for an upscale soirée, we're showing you some of the most flattering wedding guest dresses we can't get enough of. Read on to see some of our favourites and shop similar styles, too.
