Welcome Back, Weddings!

Odds are you’ve got the dress in hand—whew! Next on your attire to-do list: Get a bra fitting. Our Bra Fit Experts can help confirm your size before pointing you to the ideal bras, panties and shapers for the Big Day based on your outfit and preferences. (Not only do these suggestions apply to the bride, of course, they also go for bridesmaids, the mother of the bride, guests…. You get the picture.)

Right around now, you might start thinking about other marquee moments, like the bridal shower and the wedding night. A word of advice to the bride: Make known your lingerie and sleepwear likes and dislikes. Have bridesmaids spread the word so you’re not suddenly besieged by a pile of racy lace you’re never going to wear so long as you both shall be wed. And if you’re one for tradition, scoop up “something blue” around now, too, and set it aside in your bring-to-the-venue pile.

Once you’ve got those honeymoon plane tickets on lock, pivot to swimwear and coverups. This timeframe gives you enough time to try on and return a bunch of options, so you love what you’re left with. Maybe you’re the type to wear a white suit broadcasting your new marital status, or you’re more for florals that fit in with the setting. Either way, choose suits that support your chest and play up curves, be they bra-sized, slimming or sporty, excursion-ready one-pieces and tankinis. Also important for the honeymoon: a strapless bra for going out and the balance of that saucy shower lingerie (see above).

As the main event gets closer, shift your focus to the details that make a difference. Red carpet stylists have long relied on things like fashion tape and nipple covers; why shouldn’t you? You may also want to consider treating your squad to matching rompers and robes that make for excellent behind-the-scenes, getting-ready candids.

Given all the planning that went into it, it’s hard to imagine the wedding is over in the proverbial blink of an eye. Between us, let it be known that you’re only going to be breaking out the lingerie for so long; eventually, your around-the-house ensemble is going to veer more slouchy than sexy in short order—as is the natural order of things. May as well make them as cozy as possible for couch-snuggling.
