Wedding Fashion - FAQ

What style of wedding dress should I wear?

When choosing a wedding dress for your ceremony, it's important to choose a gown that makes you feel like a beautiful bride and fits the style of your wedding. There are an array of silhouettes, fabrics, embellishments and more that go into your choice of wedding dress, but the wedding dresses that you should gravitate toward are the styles that will totally fit in with your wedding events. 


Modern brides tend to go for more sleek fabrics with unique bows and detailing and boho brides love lace gowns or floral details; however, every bride has a different style and preference for the look she desires for the big day. Spring and summer weddings typically call for bridal gowns that may have lighter fabrics, while fall and winter celebrations are perfect for heavier fabrics and materials.


We encourage every bride to try on a range of styles for her wedding day when shopping for The One, as it's important to not only follow the trend you like and have been eyeing but also choose a look from a designer that you love, even if it wasn't one you were planning on. The sign of the best wedding dress is the one that makes you feel like a beauty!

When is bridal fashion week?

If you're on the search for wedding fashion inspiration, you're likely looking forward to Bridal Fashion Week. Typically held in New York City and also online in 2021, Bridal Fashion Week occurs in October and April when bridal designers show off their new collections of wedding dresses and accessories.

Where can I find wedding dress inspiration?

Inside Weddings offers a range of wedding dress inspiration on this page, as well as looks from real brides and wedding parties in our real wedding section!

What wedding accessories do I need?

Of course, the final choice is up to you, but the most common wedding accessories include: wedding shoes, bridal veil, a garter, undergarments, lingerie, or shapewear, a headpiece or hair accessories, and wedding jewelry!
