All eyes will be on you on your most special day, but remember to give special attention to the pieces of attire only your soulmate gets to see. Make sure to pick lingerie that will make your wedding day (and night!) unforgettable.

Style

As with regular clothing, your lingerie should reflect your personal style and flatter your body shape. A bra and panty set are the most versatile as they can be worn on many occasions, while garter belts will keep your stockings securely in place, and corsets can give you the cinch you need for an extra smooth waistline. You may opt for a bra set that includes a panty and garter belt, and keep the garter for later use. If you are unsure of what style will suit you best, it is recommended to ask for a professional opinion from our staff at Sexy Curves.

Wedding Gown

Your bridal undergarments are meant to be concealed, so bear in mind the neckline and back of your dress to ensure all pieces complement each other and do not show through where they are not meant to. Corsets are great options for strapless dress styles, while plunging necklines may require a deep plunge bra and, backless styles an adhesive bra. Lingerie garments that have rhinestones or other details may hook onto your dress so it is best to steer clear of those.

Comfort

Your big day can also be a long tiring day so it is imperative to wear comfortable breathable garments. Stretch lace or mesh fabrics are ideal as they give you room to move. Given you will be wearing your underwear for hours, make sure you have a comfy set for your wedding, and leave the sexier, more intricate sets for your wedding night or honeymoon.

If you prefer not to wear a bra along with your gown you can still wear a dainty beautiful panty to make you feel super confident.

Spares

No bride wants to have something go wrong but it can happen. It is best to have spare panties should something feel uncomfortable, extra nylon stockings as they can easily tear and a second garter for keepsake. Add a touch of blue for the “something blue” of your bridal look.

Cinch

A perfect waistline will look great in photos if you are willing to compromise on comfort. Under bust styles will give you the cinch you need while over bust styles can also give your bust a lift if fitted correctly. My suggestion is to have your bridal corset laced up by a professional so that it really flatters your curves and will make it so much easier to wear later. At Sexy Curves boutique we offer free corset fittings.

Robes and Rompers

To ensure your undergarments don’t get stained while you are getting your hair and makeup done, it is a great idea to have a robe or romper that will give you the modesty you need while protecting your undergarments. Satin fabric is the most recommended as it is not sheer but styles that have a touch of lace are super romantic and look amazing in photographs.

Whatever style of bridal lingerie you choose for your big day it has to make you feel most confident. Your intimate ensemble should enhance your bridal look and make for a memorable wedding night.
