We don’t know about you, but we look at weddings as joyous opportunities to dine, dance, celebrate…and show off our impressive style. Don’t get us wrong — nobody’s trying to steal the spotlight from the lady in white, but a girl’s got to hold her own.

Which is why we’ve put together three killer outfits perfect for this season’s happiest fetes. Whether you’ve RSVP’ed to a casual afternoon affair or an over-the-top soirée, these carefully crafted ensembles will definitely put you on the best dressed guest list (bridesmaids totally vote on that sort of thing). Now, that’s something we can all toast to!

Black Tie — Keep it classy with a chic floor-length dress and luxe fur shawl, but don’t forget to add a sexy, strappy shoe and a cheeky wink (hello, red, lipped clutch!).

Clockwise from bottom left: Alejandro Ingelmo Shoes, $1,295, available at Alejandro Ingelmo; Jené DeSpainEarrings, $76, available at R29 Shops; Topshop Dress, $110, available at Topshop; Vintage Fox Cape Collar, $90, available at R29 Shops; Diane von FurstenbergBag, $303.60, available at my-wardrobe.com.

Afternoon Garden Party — Outdoor weddings require practicality as much as they do style. Pair a punchy-printed dress with grass-friendly wedges, elegant shades, and an eye-popping clutch, and you’ll be just as comfortable as you are chic.

Clockwise from bottom left: Wanderluster Ring, $42, available at R29 Shops; Gap Clutch, $39.95, available at Gap; Stella McCartney Dress, $1,195, available at Net-A-Porter; Pixie Market Sunglasses, 14, available at Pixie Market; Rebecca Minkoff Shoes, $260, available at Shopbop.

Classic Cocktail — Equal parts pretty and party girl, this combo is all about balance: a red-hot dress with a feminine silhouette and pretty sheer details, a classic pump with a racy leopard print, and pretty, floral jewels in an unexpected color. Play both sides!

Clockwise from bottom left: J.Crew Shoes, $350, available at J.Crew; 10 Crosby Derek Lam Trench, $595, available at Barneys; Carven Dress, $693, available at my-wardrobe.com; Wanderluster Earrings, $68, available at R29 Shops; Factory 202 Clutch, $65, available at Opening Ceremony.
