What to Look for in a Bohemian Wedding Dress

Style

While everyone's definition of bohemian style may be different, boho wedding dresses are designed to embody a carefree and laid back aesthetic. According to Osemwenkhae, this can mean lots of lace, or a bell sleeve. “The silhouette of a bohemian wedding is usually a fit and flare or a sheath. [It] can be an off the shoulder cut with a full puff sleeve. We usually see a ruffle trimming or lace inserts along the bottom half of the dress,” she explains.

Venue

Bohemian bridal gowns always pair seamlessly with outdoor garden venues or vintage-themed weddings, with many dresses boasting '70s-inspired bell sleeves and romantic antique lace, like Lulus Belle Sleeve Dress. If your wedding is taking place on the beach, you might want to skip the long train and go with something easier to walk in, like Lulus Two-Piece Maxi Set.

Weather

Those long, statement sleeves are perfect for fall or winter weddings where you don't mind some extra fabric. However, if you are getting married in the summer or a tropical climate, you might want to opt for lighter designs. Look for dresses made from breathable fabric, like Love Shack Fancy Ryan Dress, which is made from 100 percent cotton. A silk slip-like Reformation Chania Dress will also feel barely there.

FAQ

  • What is a bohemian wedding dress?

    A bohemian wedding dress is meant to embody a carefree spirit and look effortless in design. Unfussy and unadorned silhouettes are often associated with bohemian wedding dresses. Boho styles are generally artistic, vintage-looking, and dreamy compared to more classic and tailored looks.

  • Can I wear a bohemian wedding dress to my formal wedding?

    Of course! While bohemian wedding dresses can traditionally be thought of as casual and informal, there are many styles out there that feel appropriate for a formal wedding. With its long train and cape sleeve, the BHLDN Odalis Wedding Gown will be right at home at a black-tie wedding.

  • How do you style a bohemian wedding dress?

    A posy bouquet of wildflowers are all you need to complete your boho look, or accessorize with unique pieces. “For bohemian wedding dresses it's all about the headpieces. If you want a more dramatic look, go for a flower-beaded intertwined hair vine, you want the beading or flowers to accent the dress but never overpower the complete look,” says Osemwenkhae. But for something more minimalist, simple shoes and delicate jewelry always make a nice pairing.

How many dresses do most brides try on? ›

On average, brides try on about 4–7 dresses, but we recommend no more than 10. The more wedding gowns you try on, the more confusing things may get. When the bridal gown selection is too big, brides tend to get overwhelmed and struggle to remember what the first gown they tried on looked like.

What color dress should an older bride wear? ›

"BoHo" is a shortened form of bohemian, self descriptive of the style. Virginia Nicholson (granddaughter of Vanessa Bell, one of the pivotal figures of the unconventional, but influential "Bloomsbury Group" in the first half of the 20th century) has described it as a "curious slippery adjective".

Patterns depicting birds and vines are particularly unlucky. The shade of your wedding gown should also be white, cream or ivory, these colours represent luck and happiness. Red should be avoided at all costs according to this old wedding rhyme.

Why does the husband go under the bride's dress? ›

The one who catches it is supposed to have good luck in finding a bride. Often the wedding dresses are full and billowy, so it's a lot of material to lift up. Also, the groom is making sure he doesn't show more of the bride's body than is appropriate. So it does look like he's burrowing under her dress.

Can you go commando in wedding dress? ›

Some brides might feel more comfortable wearing no underwear at all, especially if they generally opt to go commando or skip the bra. This isn't an inappropriate option, but Brickman warns caution.

What size are most brides? ›

Bridal sizing isn't like typical street wear sizing. While you might be a size 4-6 in jeans, you're in fact a bridal size 8-10, and if you're a size 14-16, you're likely a 18-20. Don't worry about it–sizing is just a number! You'll likely see most of our samples in a bridal size 8, 10, 12, 18, 20 or 22 to try on.

What does a 50 year old wear to a wedding? ›

Wear Something Dressy and Party-Like

Plus, when you look good, you feel good and everything is much more fun! Aim for something dressy and party-like, heck even a little glamorous. The easiest way know how formal you should dress to check the dress code on the wedding invitation.

What should a woman over 40 wear to a wedding? ›

It's best to choose darker or more vibrant hues that complement the wedding theme, and avoid anything that may appear too attention-grabbing or revealing. Don't wear anything too casual, such as jeans or sneakers. Even if the wedding is outdoors or in a more relaxed setting, it's still important to dress up!
