Wedding Dress Digest: Our Bridal Wear Picks

August 19, 2019

Wedding planning is stressful for every upcoming bride, but the dress shouldn’t be. The wedding dress, besides the union of two people in love, is the best part of the wedding. The bride gets to show off her best in white, and “WOW” her groom and guests as she floats across the room. Seeing all of the gowns on our brides is one of our favorite parts of the job. So, to share the love, we’ve compiled some of our readers’ favorite looks, along with a few of our own, so you can pin and plan for your perfect gown!

1. Lightly Laced dress from OffWhite Bridal

Why we love it: The floral lace detail doesn’t distract from her bridal beauty, but still outlines her back and waist beautifully. The underlay of beige gives dimension to the white lace and chiffon and creates for a fairytale dress fit for a Queen.

2. Strapless in Tulle from OffWhite Bridal

Why we love it: This dress gives you the best of both worlds: a traditional, elegant ball gown style with a sweetheart neckline, in a rustic-chic chiffon daydream. The tulle still allows the dress to have a lot of natural movement, which is perfect for twirling around the dance floor.

3. Red Vera Wang

Why we love it: A bride in Vera is always a wedding dream come true. But having a bride wear red? That’s a whole new fantasy we never knew we had until we saw UBG bride Alexandra Moresco in red at her Deer Valley Wedding last year.

4. Boho by Jen Jackson at Alta Moda

Why we love it: We love that Boho dresses have a “more-than-bridal” elegance to them. With the simple and relaxed body, the real fun of this look is in the sleeves, and these ones are to die for!

5. Dusty Blue by Janay Marie

Why we love it: We love the tradition of adding something blue to your wedding day, so why not add it in the dress! This dusty blue number gives the bride something more unique on her wedding day, while still staying true to traditions with the white overlay bodice. For more of this shoot click here.

6. Classic in White by OffWhite Bridal

Why we love it: Another dress by OffWhite Bridal, because we just can’t get enough! This modern and sleek silhouette gives a timeless feel without the frills. The buttons running down the back offer texture (but not too much), and the boat neckline makes reminds us of Meghan Markle’s wedding dress. We love a dress with a royal stamp of approval- especially that of the Duchess herself. Click to see more of this bridal shoot.

8. Two Piece Crop by Alta Moda

Why we love it: An oldie but a goodie, this gown brings fresh take on bridal style, the two-piece look brings all things glitter and bohemian. We love that the set is a customizable, mix and match a skirt-and-crop-top combo, so brides of any style can get just what they’ve envisioned.

9. Soft Lace V Neck by Bell Tower Bridal

Why we love it: Soft lace, delicate embroiders and an incredible shape- what more could a bride ask for? The V neck-line gives way to a sexy open back while the frothy train completes the look. Click to see more of his bridal shoot.
