Another bumper wedding season is on the horizon. While there's always the possibility to pair an already well-loved dress with box-fresh shoes and jewels, a nuptials celebration is the very best excuse to invest in a new frock.
Whether beach-bound or black tie, countryside or city centre, there's something to suit all tastes and dress codes in Vogue Scandinavia's line up of the 30 best guess dresses below.

Garden wedding
Immersed in nature, the nature of a garden wedding is – by default – less formal than an indoor wedding and this should be reflected in your look. With this more relaxed dress code, coordinate cohesively with your surrounds by opting for a floral print by Gestuz or natural hues like Acne Studios' printed design.

Countryside wedding
Usually held on a family estate, or a locale with a close connection to the couple, there is something extra special and intimate about countryside weddings. Dress the part with a long satin dress by Sandro, a free flowing floral design by House of CB or MSGM's playful pink mini dress.
Countryside wedding
City wedding
Whether a town hall, museum, library – expect a grand building that sets the scene for cocktail style frock. With less of nature's elements to factor in, practicality doesn't need to be at the forefront of your mind in this case. Opt for fitted, figure-hugging silhouettes like Coperni's midi dress, or a silk creation by Rodarte that will fit right in at the bar of a fancy banquet hall.
City wedding
Beach wedding
Whilst beach weddings usually are held in tropical climates a plane ride away, there's a rise in nuptials being held on beaches all around Scandinavian archipelagos. Wherever you are in the world, a beach setting calls for light and romantic blue palette, like Malina's printed halterneck dress. Enjoy the freedom that the beach affords in dress materials – with linens and lightweight satins all fair game.

Black tie wedding
A black tie wedding is one of few occasions when it's time to go all out, turning up the glamour to the most high-octane level. Floor-length gowns can be on the cards, but may not be the most appealing for a warm's summer day. Our suggestion: find a design that is cut or draped to tastefully show a little bit of skin, whether it's an off-shoulder silhouette, subtle cut-out, or high slit to show some leg.
