Here Comes the Bikini!

After deciding to tie the knot with that special someone, it’s time to plan the details for your big day. One of the most critical decisions is your bridal apparel. While the traditional white gown is as popular as ever, there are other options for today’s bride. Whether you’re a bride who prefers a more laid-back approach or one whose heart is set on a destination event, the bridal bikini is calling your name. Showing more skin is in for your nuptials. Here’s what you need to know.

Embrace the Details

One of the things many brides love about wedding gowns is the details. Fine accouterments such as lace, beading, and stitching are examples of bridal gown details that endure. The good news is that you don’t have to sacrifice these details with wedding swimwear. Choose a bikini or one-piece with lace details to add details, shape, and sex appeal that make you the belle of the beach.

Touch the Texture

Speaking of details, texture is another fashionable consideration for the style-minded bride and swimwear is no exception. A crochet bridal bikini or bikini accessory checks several boxes for your big day. It’s fun, flirtatious, and fabulous. It also introduces a bit of retro style to your look. Bring the idea of a small form-fitting dress with the freeing lightness of swimwear to the party.

Tune-in With Tunic

A fashion staple in many cultures, the tunic is a simple garment that varies in length, but usually stops between the hips or knees. Our Water Lily Noah tunic offers a beautiful silhouette and versatility for a bride and other members of the party. Wear over your favorite bathing suit, small dress, or other beach wear as part of your ceremony or other events such as a bachelorette pool party or a seaside rehearsal brunch.

Don’t Acquiesce to the Dress

With fabulous beach bridal wear at your fingertips, you don’t have to go along with a standard bridal gown. Maybe you want something with more of a dress silhouette for the wedding, so you can save the bridal bikini for the honeymoon. Our Water Lily Victoria Dress and our Liana Lace Dress offer dress options that celebrate the summer with water-friendly details and styling. These are not only great options for a bride, but for bridesmaids as well.

Cover Together

When you’re weighing your bridal bikini options, don’t forget the other people in your wedding party. Different people have different preferences when it comes to swimwear, especially with respect to color, shape, and other styles. Celebrate each person’s individual style and bring some uniformity with a cover-up. Make it a star accessory for the ceremony or a go-to for the reception celebration or free time by the pool.
