Fashionable Bridal Outerwear For Every Style
We all have that one jacket we’re guilty of wearing to just about every outing.
Take a peek into your closet and we guarantee you can spot it immediately! Take that go-to item and use it as inspiration for the outerwear of your bridal ensemble. Whether you have a blazer and heels kind of style or you’re more of a t-shirt, jeans, and Dr. Martens type of gal, we always say you should incorporate your everyday style into your bridal look. Not only does it make your bridal ensemble more unique to you, but it will help you feel more confident on your big day. Plus, with a killer piece of outerwear, you can completely transform your gown from ceremony to reception with just one outfit adjustment. This is always a plus because by doing away with that second gown you may have been thinking about, you can save a lot of money. If you know your bridal style, but aren’t sure what kind of outerwear you want to rock on your big day, keep scrolling for a few of our suggestions!

Edgy Bride: Moto Jacket
Everybody should have a moto jacket in their wardrobe! Not only does it go with just about any outfit, but it also makes for an edgy addition to your bridal ensemble. If you’re wearing band t-shirts on the daily, you may not want to go with a more traditional bridal look. Adding a moto jacket will give you the ability to wear a more traditional wedding gown, but maintain that rocker edge. Plus, you can keep your moto jacket to use in your everyday wardrobe after the wedding!

Boho Bride: Jean Jacket
Double denim is back on trend for 2021, which means so are jean jackets! Perfect for a summer wedding, this piece of outerwear is a light jacket that will give a boho bride a casual, chic touch. If you want your jean jacket to have a personal touch, you can have it embroidered with your name or “bride.” They make for a stunning solo bridal shot or back of the couple shot accessory.

Romantic Bride: Cape
Who doesn’t want the opportunity to run through a field in a cape? For our romantic brides that dream of a fairytale wedding, a veil may not be your go-to ceremony accessory. A cape will give your bridal look a dramatic touch for your ceremony as an alternate choice for a veil or be a stunning accessory for your reception entrance. This is a slightly more expensive piece of outerwear, but if your budget allows for it it can be a beautiful addition to your bridal ensemble.

Glam Bride: Faux Fur Jacket
Old Hollywood glam is a classic bridal look that will never go out of style! From the wavy curls to the long train gowns, glam brides are curating a bridal look that is eye-catching and dramatic. Adding a faux fur jacket to your ensemble for your reception and some of your wedding photos will not only glamorize your wedding gown but keep you warm too. If you want to add more drama to your glam bridal look, we recommend a faux feather jacket or shawl.

Classic Bride: Blazer
If you’re like us and you love a good, tailored blazer why not wear one with your wedding gown! It would complement a mermaid or sheath gown silhouette the best but can be worn with almost any gown. If you want a more relaxed look, go for an oversized blazer instead of a fitted one. Either way, choosing a blazer as your bridal outerwear will give a classic bride that extra touch of traditional, yet modern style.

Modern Chic Bride: Trench Coat
We’re fully aware that a trench coat might sound like a far-fetched idea for a bridal accessory. But, if you’re a modern bride, a classic shawl may not match your bridal style. Whether you’re opting for a shorter dress or just want some more unique accessories like geometric earrings or bridal boots, a white or sheer trench coat can complete your modern chic look! It will give your wedding dress extra volume and length for a sweeping reception entrance.
