'Tis the season for love! (And I'm not just talking about Valentine's Day.) Winter weddings have been growing in popularity, and if you've received a wedding invitation recently, it's time to start thinking about what you're going to wear. Luckily, you've come to the right place. The best winter wedding outfits are classy, rich in color and comfortable so you can dance the night away. Don't wait until the last minute to find something to wear. With 17 choices at all price points, we have an array of options that will fit the dress code and your personality — promise!
1. Midnight Rain:Dark blues like navy and midnight are some of the classiest colors to wear to a winter wedding. With a subtle-yet-striking color, you have more room to experiment with the silhouette of your dress, which is why we love the high-low hem of this Adrianna Papell number that was made for dancing — just $199!
2. Luxury on a Budget: Velvet dresses look glamorous (and offer a bit of warmth) during the chilly winter months. Plus, you don't need to splurge to get good quality velvet. Just take a look at this Huhot Velvet Wrap Dress — over 4,000 Amazon shoppers have given it their seal of approval — just $52!
3. Black Tie Optional:This dress code is one of the most difficult to dress for (why not just make it black tie!) If you need some help deciding what to wear, this Venus Ruffle Midi Dress in navy certainly fits the bill. The off-the-shoulder neckline gives it a romantic vibe — just $59!
