You could spend months (or even years) planning your wedding—stressing over seating arrangements, sending increasingly-less-gentle reminders to RSVP—or you could pick a destination, grab a white dress from a local boutique, hop on a plane (or train, or Zipcar), and be on your way to wedded bliss.


Here we’ve rounded up our favorite non-bridal wedding dresses (plus one jumpsuit!) in stores now, from a fringe-trimmed slip perfect for a beachside ceremony to skirt-and-crop-top combo that can stand up to the bright lights of Vegas.
