Being a bride-to-be is one of the most amazing experiences a girl can go through – and also one of the most stressful! From seating arrangement charts and minor decor details, to all the outfits you need to put together from engagement party to the big day, it can be a lot to keep track of! That’s why we’ve created this easy bride’s dress checklist to help you navigate through what you’ll need, and what type of frock is fitting for each occasion!<\/p>\n

Engagement Photos<\/strong> – Engagement photo outfits tend to be on the more casual side, but it’s important to choose something that is simple and figure-flattering, yet polished. Prints aren’t recommend for they tend to distract from the beautiful romance your photographer is trying to capture! The right shoes, hair, and accessories can make a cute skater dress<\/a> or simple LBD<\/a> really pop! Check out our\u00a0Like You Do Coral Pink Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Heaven’s Adore Light Blue Backless Dress<\/a>,<\/span>\u00a0Home Before Daylight Red Dress<\/a>, or\u00a0Share the Love Black Dress<\/a>\u00a0for some fun\u00a0options!<\/span><\/p>\n\"Colorful_dreses_2\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

Engagement Party<\/strong> – The engagement party is the start of many celebrations, so kick it off with something fun and flirty with a chic party vibe! From a fit and flare silhouette to a lacy bodycon, you’ll be sure to look darling\u00a0with cute numbers like our\u00a0Flirting with Danger Cutout Ivory Dress<\/a>,\u00a0BB Dakota Princeton Ivory Lace Dress<\/a>,\u00a0\u00a0Angel Eyes White Lace Dress, <\/a>or Cameo Daydreaming Black and Ivory Print Dress<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n\"engagementparty\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bridal Shower<\/strong> – A sweet, semi-casual, and feminine frock is fitting for the bridal shower! Shorter lengths, flowy materials, and lacy numbers add a ladylike element! Opt for a figure-flattering skater silhouette\u00a0like our\u00a0Hot Off the Precious Ivory Dress<\/a>,\u00a0or\u00a0Angelic Arrival Ivory Lace Dress<\/a>, or our \u00a0Shifting Dears Ivory Long Sleeve Dress<\/a> or\u00a0Perfect Situation Ivory Long Sleeve Shift Dress<\/a>\u00a0for\u00a0a sweet\u00a0shift shape!<\/span><\/p>\n\"bridalshower\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bachelorette Party<\/strong> – Something sultry, fun, and easy to dance in! After all, it’s going to be a wild night with the girls. Try a curve-hugging bodycon or a flirty\u00a0peplum like our\u00a0Renaissance Court Lace Ivory Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Foreign Film Ivory Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Shoot to Score Ivory Dress<\/a>, or\u00a0Charm and Lace Ivory Lace Dress<\/a>, !<\/span><\/p>\n\"bachelorette\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rehearsal Dinner<\/strong> – With friends and family both in attendance you’ll need a dress that is both elegant, demure, and classic, yet totally chic! Choose a dress that has features like\u00a0a high neck, long sleeves, or a modest midi-length, but that also brings a bombshell bodycon shape that shows off your figure! Our\u00a0Top Notch Ivory Midi Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Sleeve to Chance Ivory Long Sleeve Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Among the Stars Ivory Lace Midi Dress<\/a>,\u00a0or We Built This Midi Ivory Midi Dress<\/a>\u00a0all fit the bill!<\/span><\/p>\n\"rehearsal2\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

Reception (Or alternative wedding dress)<\/strong> – An extravagant wedding gown for pictures and the ceremony makes perfect sense, \u00a0but wearing something restricting, heavy, and uncomfortable for\u00a06+ hours isn’t going to make for a very happy bride. Elegantly float from guest to guest by changing into something light, flowy, and ethereal,\u00a0or dance the night away in a structured fit and flare silhouette! Try our Make Way for Wonderful Ivory Lace Maxi Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Snowy Meadow Crocheted Ivory Maxi Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Keepsake Divide Ivory Strapless Skater Dress<\/a>, or\u00a0Cameo Breaking Hearts Ivory Halter Dress<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\"reception1\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

Day-After Brunch<\/strong> – You and your hubby will want to catch a little extra snooze time (and cuddles) in the morning, but also get a tasty meal\u00a0after such a big day! Brunch with champagne mimosas should definitely be on the agenda for the day-after! \u00a0Show off your just-wedded style in one of these romantic dresses: the\u00a0Wrap-phrodisiac Ivory Dress<\/a>, Pleased and Thank You Strapless Ivory Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Parade Wave Ivory Dress<\/a>, or\u00a0Keepsake High Roads Ivory Lace Halter Dress<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\"brunch\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

Honeymoon Dress<\/strong> – Going somewhere tropical? Think long and flowy maxis like our\u00a0Ladakh One Love Black Lace Maxi Dress<\/a>, The Fifth Label Adore You Black Tropical Print Maxi Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Tie it Out Ivory and Black Tie-Dye Maxi Dress<\/a>, or\u00a0Marl I Will, Marl I Won’t Black Striped Maxi Dress<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n\"honeymoon\"<\/a>\n
