First released at the end of 2020 during a time when we all needed a good distraction, the Netflix adaptation of Bridgerton quickly took the romance and drama girlies by storm. This regency era drama has all the charms of a Jane Austen story, but with a lot more steam. It’s no wonder that the popular TV series, now three seasons in, has inspired a number of weddings.
Maybe you want to have your own Bridgerton themed wedding. If so, here are a few wedding dress ideas that can help to set the mood.
Choose Your Heroine
Each season of Bridgerton focuses on a different couple, and each heroine has their own sense of style. To find inspiration for your own wedding dress, it might help to think about what heroine you resonate with the most? Elegant and sweet like Daphne? Strong and spunky like Kate? Or maybe like Penelope, you’re a little shy but coming into your power. Take a look at the wedding dresses of your favorite heroines to find inspiration for your own.
A-Line Dresses
A-line wedding dresses are a great choice if you want to go with a more classic, Bridgerton-themed wedding. The popular silhouette of the day was the empire waistline, with a bodice that stopped at the bust and then flowed into a long, flowy skirt. A-line dresses are more modern, but they have a similar elegance – especially with the longer, flowing skirts. They’re also a versatile design, so you can find the right dress for you.
Ballgown Dresses
On the other hand, if you want something more classically romantic, ballgown dresses might be the right way to go. These dresses evoke the idea of grand ballroom dances, meeting the eyes of your lover across the room and dancing with the feeling that you’re the only two in the room. A ballgown dress will help you feel like a princess on your wedding day, with a bit more of a dramatic flair than an A-line.
Touches of Lace
Lace can add a timeless quality to your wedding dress. You can find lacy A-line dresses, as well as lacy ballgowns. This texture gives your dress more elegance, romance, and helps you feel as though you’ve stepped into a beautiful version of the past for your wedding. What more could you want for your Bridgerton theme?
Sleeves
Strapless gowns may be all the rage now, but in the time that Bridgerton is set, you were more likely to see cap sleeve wedding dresses or puff sleeve wedding dresses. And in recent years, sleeves have begun to make a comeback in the world of wedding dresses. Wearing sleeves may add a timelessness to your dress. Or, if you like the bare arm look but you want something in between, consider a wedding dress with a sheer jacket or an elegant sleeveless dress.
