How to Buy Bridal Lingerie: All You Need to Know

A wedding day is special for every person. The euphoria need not subside till the break of dawn. To make your wedding night particularly memorable, surprise your spouse with an elegant bridal lingerie.  There are various considerations that goes into making a perfect bridal lingerie. Ask these questions to buy the perfect bedroom experience for your wedding night:

 

What to Buy First? Wedding Dress or the Lingerie?

A new bride should buy her wedding gown/dress first because you have to try a lot of styles and shapes to walk down the aisle. Lingerie should come after as it gets easier to decide what complements your dress. And the ease is not limited to the color but also the style like two piece sets, corsets, bridal shapewear etc. The ideal method is to buy the dress and take it along with you for selecting the lingerie set. If you are wearing the set under your dress, make sure that the color and style suits the gown. It must not peek out from the crevices on aisle or during the vows.

 

How Much Body Should It Display? Risqué Factor?

Bridal dresses are often tight, shiny or sheer. Discuss with your seamstress if you want an invisible look. If so, consider wearing a lingerie which has less risqué factor as it will get seen by your guests. Always think of covering your legs after removing the bridal gown with stockings, holdups and garter belts. Visibility of legs and other body parts decide the level of comfort and the temperature of your bedroom. If you feel uncomfortable in showing your body, it is recommended to not to experiment with thongs and G-strings.

 

What Fittings will it Require? Bra or the Complete Lingerie Set?

An ideal lingerie set is a strapless piece which is smooth and goes natural with body’s curves. Your piece must not give you knicker lines and other marks. Experts recommend that you must bring your lingerie to the fitting sessions, unless your dress has an inbuilt corset. The fitting of your gown may not be the perfect benchmark for your lingerie, because . If you are losing weight before the wedding, you may have to check the fitting of dress, bra, corset and other garments.

 

Do I Need to Wear the Bridal Lingerie Under my Dress?

This question again depends on the shape, size and style of your dress. However, for ladies with larger busts, no wedding dress with strong breast support can hold your bosoms. To avoid pain and uncomfortable situation on the aisle, bra sets or matching corsets become absolutely necessary under the wedding dress.

If you plan on something extremely vivid and out of the box, you can always wear a comfortable pair of underwear and change into something different later on. Your daily pair of bras and panties will make you feel comfortable the whole day.  

 

Which Bra will Suit my Dress? Do I Really Need a Bra?

Women have a lot of choices when it comes to supporting their chest. For a backless piece a basque, multiway, strapless or backless corset may suit well. Balcony bras are also very popular these days. Think about the size of your chest and how will it get support, especially if your bust is big. Sometimes bras are ingrained under the dress. With heavier bust, lingerie and strong bra support becomes more important. If the fabric of your dress is smooth and shiny, make sure that your bra lines and embroidery is not visible on the surface.

 

Is White the Only Color for Bridal Lingerie?

NO. Most women try to match the color of their own dress when it comes to bridal lingerie. However, brides can always go on to choose the bridesmaid color and even the décor. A bright white may look very evident under your dress; you can always go for shades of cream. Latest lingerie lines also come with neat embroidery and small hints of catchy colors. However, you need not stick to a fixed color and style for your lingerie set. Wear simple and comfortable pair of underwear and change into something hotter later on.

 

Any additional tips?

No visible panty lines or bra straps. What matters is the detail. It is what makes your wedding memorable and your memories need to be free from imperfections. Foresee the mess and bring a pair of backup stockings. Consider buying special accessories like tiara, garter belts, jewelry or necklace. What’s more hotter than a woman in lingerie, it is one in heels and necklace which doesn’t come off when everything else does.

 

The perfect underwear beneath your wedding dress doesn’t only make you feel great, it also affects the way your complete marriage attire comes out to be. Don’t take the decision in a jiffy. Start 2-3 months in advance to find the perfect piece, so that you find the perfect bridal lingerie that looks and feels great on your wedding day.
