Wedding Party Dresses to Wear With Cowboy Boots

Say "I Do" to these dresses and boots for your next wedding guest appearance.

You have a horse-crazy friend getting married in a western wedding. It should be a blast!  You have the perfect gift and the perfect pair of cowboy boots ready. Except… the rest of your closet is full of jeans, breeches and coveralls. You need a cute country style dress that looks good with your boots.

We'll look at what styles tend to look adorable with boots, including:

• Short hems that come down to above the knee or mid-thigh
• Dresses with a "handkerchief" hemline
• V-shaped hemlines that are shorter on the sides and longer in the front and back
• Slit-leg designs
• High-low hemlines

Then, we'll look at some specific dresses to see which styles appeal to you and align best with the type of western wedding you're attending.

What Dresses Look Good with Boots

No matter what your style, you can find an outfit you love that looks super cute with boots and a hat.

• Types of dresses that look good with boots typically include short hems that come down to above the knee or mid-thigh.
• Dresses with a "handkerchief" hemline (i.e. uneven to look like a handkerchief) are solid choices, too.
• V-shaped hemlines that are shorter on the sides and longer in the front and back can look good when paired with boots.
• When you pair a longer dress with boots, those with a small slit on one leg are most fashionable as it allows you to show off at least one cowboy boot.
• Dresses with high-low hemlines are also ideal for wearing with boots as they're long but people can still see your boots.

Finding Your Style

• If you've got an apple body type, tunic and shift dresses (dresses that fall straight down from the neckline to the hemline) are perfect, especially when combined with a short hemline.
• If you have a pearbody type, choose things that accentuate your upper body like prom style and fit and flare dresses (dresses with a fitting waistline and A-line skirt). Dresses with sleeves are also a good choice as they draw attention to the upper body.
• If you've got an hourglass figure, go for dresses with belts in the middle (or add them yourself) to accentuate your curves.
• If you have broad shoulders and small hips (an inverted triangle body type), try a ruffled or A-line hem to balance out your shoulders or a maxi dress to make your hips look more full.
• If you've got a rectangle body type (straight up and down with undefined curves), you can pretty much wear any style. Dresses with belts or cinched middles help to give the illusion of curves.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you dress Western without boots?

Cowboy boots aren't the only item that makes for a Western look. A denim or plaid button-down over a white shirt is a classic combination for men and women.

Fringe is another Western classic. You can find all sorts of shirts, vests, and jackets that come with fringe, both classic leather and in fun colors.

You can't go wrong with a pair of jeans or a prairie skirt, especially if you pair them with a cowboy hat.

Lace is a popular fabric choice for the Western lifestyle. Don't forget about color! Some common choices include leather (tan), turquoise, bright orange, and red.

What to wear to a country wedding?

Country doesn't always mean casual, so check with your hosts before showing up in jeans.

For the ladies, a fun, floral dress is always a safe bet, and it pairs great with a hat. A relaxed-fit maxi dress is another solid option, as flowy fabrics are popular country choices—bonus points if the dress includes lace!

For men, stick with a suit but stay away from black or gray. Choose earthy colors like green or brown, or go with a pattern (like tweed). If you prefer something neutral, navy pants with a tan blazer is a great combo. Go for a pop of color or print with your tie.
