Can You Wear a Midi Dress as a Wedding Guest?

A Midi Dress for a wedding guest should lean polished rather than casual, even with relaxed pairings in the mix. The Denim Jacket works if the wedding skews garden-party or daytime informal, but swap it for something sleeker if the invitation hints at cocktail or evening. Accessories like a Statement Necklace or Leather Belt can elevate the dress into ceremony-appropriate territory without requiring a complete outfit overhaul.
