It’s officially wedding season. And, after you’ve locked in your venue , your guest list, and, of course, your dress , it’s time to start thinking about what you’ll wear underneath. You’ve put so much time and energy into curating the perfect look (or looks!) for your nuptials, you want to make sure that you look and feel just as stunning when you take said dress off .
Though lingerie might have previously been considered an afterthought, it’s one of the most indulgent and fun things to shop for — wedding or not.
Bridal lingerie is traditionally designed in white, but apart from that, the specific styles run the gamut. You can shop something sweet, like a ruffle-trimmed balconette or perhaps you’re after a full-coverage teddy; you might be looking for a structured bustier that doubles as clubwear or opt for an understated bralette.
No matter what your bridal style, your wedding night is the time to pull out all the stops. After all, you’re about to celebrate with your forever person.
