As time goes by, brides are starting to put their own twists on traditional weddings. A classic white dress and fancy heels is the norm, but more brides are stepping outside of the box! Whether you want to wear something unique or just want to show off your personal style, forget the wedding dress! Take inspiration from these brides who decided not to wear a dress on their big day and rocked it!

Skirts

If you don't want to wear a dress, but you still want something with a similar style, then try skirts! Brides have been pairing high waisted skirts with crop tops or silky blouses. This makes for an elegant, unique look that will make you stand out on your wedding.

Pants

Stepping a little further outside of your comfort zone would be to wear pants! A lot of brides have been seen wearing pants and blouses or pantsuits. These make for a comfortable outfit that also looks chic! You will be able to dance all night long with this adorable wedding look.

I wore pants to my wedding and I don’t regret it for a second. I can’t go past a good pair of slacks, and for me it was important to feel comfortable, normal, and completely “me”. I saw my first @hildeheimdesigner gown back in 2007 and have admired their work ever since. All their gowns are designed and hand-made individually by Eilish, Sharon & Clare, and I can tell you they fit like a glove. Pant Suits FTW!! 📷 by @evernewstudio #weddingphotography #weddingphoto #weddingdress #weddingpants #weddingpantsuit #bridalpantsuit #weddinggown #brisbanebride #brisbanewedding #brisbaneweddings #brisbane #queenslandbride #queenslandbrides #qldbride #bride #groom #wedding #instagood #love #weddinging #instawedding #hildeheim

If you are an unconventional bride than you should try one of these trends. We love seeing brides step outside of their comfort zone and wear something unique on their wedding day. Don't be afraid to express your style!
