While your wedding day may be the main event, there are many celebrations that lead up to that magical moment on the altar.1 From your bridal shower to your wedding rehearsal, each of these celebrations deserves some special attire.
By planning out your outfits and lingerie ahead of time, you can be fully present when these memorable occasions finally transpire.
At Gooseberry Intimates, we’ve put together a guide for what to wear on each occasion. Below, we’ll showcase some stylish options for your bridal journey.
For the Engagement Night
Many of us dream that our special someone will drop to one knee and pop the question. If you suspect this day is approaching, you can prepare by treating yourself to some new lingerie.
An alluring lingerie set can be the cherry on top after an unforgettable proposal. At Gooseberry Intimates, we have two enticing options that can kickstart this exciting chapter:
- The Irresistible Set is what newly-engaged fantasies are made of. The Irresistible Bra in White has delicate underwire cups embroidered in elegant lace, along with special gold detailing. With its adjustable back and shoulder straps, you can ensure it fits you like a glove. Meanwhile, the Irresistible Briefs have a mid-rise waist and a sexy, Brazilian-style back. By opting for this set in bridal white, you can get your fiance excited for all of the wedding celebrations that are soon to come.
- The You Set is another sizzling lingerie option. Embroidered in floral lace, the You Triangle Bra is wireless and padding-free, making it super comfortable. When paired with the flouncy You Short and You Thong, you have the perfect PJs to inject some sultry sex appeal into your post-engagement bedtime routine.
For the Bachelorette
After sharing the big news with your family, alerting the girl squad, and admiring your new bling, you can start planning your Bachelorette party.
As the bride-to-be, you want to ensure all your outfits are on point. After all, you’ll likely partake in many photoshoots as you enjoy dinner, drinks, dancing, brunch, beach days, or whatever else is on your Bachelorette agenda. 2
Here are some items we’ve hand-picked that are perfect for a Bachelorette party:
- Dainty Lingerie Set – Impeccable Bachelorette attire starts with well-fitting lingerie. Our Dainty Bra and Dainty Thong can sit beautifully under gorgeous gowns, little black dresses, and everything. Both pieces feature elegant lace and adjustable straps.
- Coquette Caraco – Looking for the perfect white top to pair with jeans? Fashioned in floral-embroidered lace, the Coquette Caraco is a romantic option that will elicit tons of compliments (along with opportunities to show off your engagement ring). With its adjustable back and shoulder straps, you can ensure it fits just right.
- So Chic One Piece – If your Bachelorette plans take you to the pool or beach, a sexy swimsuit is a must. Our So Chic One Piece is an iconic option. With its plunging neckline, high-cut briefs, and sculpting fit, this swimsuit can show off all your curves without exposing too much skin. It comes in white, along with 13 other eye-catching colors.
- So Chic One Piece Tank – Our one-piece swimsuits can double as bodysuits—just slip them underneath your favorite pair of shorts or jeans. If you prefer a square neckline over a plunging V, the So Chic Tank can still sculpt your silhouette in all the right places.
- So Chic Bikini Sets – Maybe a two-piece bikini is more your style. If so, we have plenty of flattering options, from our So Chic Triangle to the So Chic Bandeau. These bikini tops are constructed to flatter any bust size. They come in many striking hues, whether you prefer delicate pastels or bright pops of color.
For the Wedding Events
From your bridal shower to your rehearsal dinner, every wedding event is an opportunity to show off your unique style. No matter what your inner fashionista chooses, these formal festivities require extra special undergarments.
Whether you plan on donning a floral sundress or sophisticated cocktail attire, the Coquette Bodysuit in white can provide the perfect base.
Its adjustable back band strap and shoulder straps allow you to modify its fit to suit your shape. Moreover, its floral-embroidered lace bodice can serve as subtle shapewear beneath your ensemble.
For Getting Ready with the Girls
When your wedding day finally arrives, you deserve to savor every moment, starting with your morning beauty routine. As you have your hair and makeup done and sip champagne with your bridesmaids, your photographer will likely snap photos to document this momentous day.
You can ensure you’re photo-ready by wearing something polished, as opposed to your standard PJs. Fashioned from 100% lustrous silk, our Manhattan Slip Dress is made for moments like these. This slip dress features
- Soft, fully lined, wireless cups with eyelash trims
- A loose, weightless bodice
- Adjustable straps
This slip dress is available in both black and white. For an aesthetic photo shoot, we suggest snagging this slip dress in white for the bride and black for the bridesmaids.
For the Wedding Day
Once your guests have found their seats at the ceremony and your spouse-to-be is waiting at the altar, it’s time to slip on your wedding dress and enjoy the exquisite day you’ve worked so hard to plan.
The perfect lingerie for your wedding day will depend on your bridal gown. Two popular options we recommend to brides-to-be include our:
- Dolce Lingerie Set – The Dolce Demi Bra and Dolce Briefs radiate romance with their stretch-tulle and pretty picot trimming. The bra’s underwire and adjustable straps enable it to be both sexy and supportive simultaneously, while the briefs eliminate any panty lines with their Brazilian back and mid-rise waist.
- Manhattan Lingerie Set – If you want lingerie with a little more coverage, our Manhattan set can deliver. Like the matching slip dress, the Manhattan Bra and Manhattan Briefs are cut from languid silk. This set’s vintage-inspired bra has demi-soft, fully-lined cups for extra support. The matching briefs provide medium coverage and have side splits of lightweight tulle to ensure utmost comfort.
For the Wedding Night
Your wedding reception gives you and your guests a chance to come together and celebrate your love. After dancing and dining the night away, the rest of the evening is all about connecting with your significant other.
Whether you choose to spend this intimate night at a deluxe hotel, beachy resort, or back home, your bridal lingerie can set the mood.
Here are some of our favorite lingerie sets for an unforgettable wedding night:
- Full On Glam Set – The Full On Glam Bra and Full On Glam High Waist Thong flaunt intricate lace and scalloped trims. The bra provides gentle support and can be adjusted as needed, whilst the high-waisted thong has built-in sculpting.
- Coquette Set – With its lace demi cups and gold closures, the Coquette Bra is flirtatiously feminine. Paired with the Coquette Thong and Coquette Silk Shorts, you can look cute and sexy as you savor a magical evening.
- Oh So Sweet Set – Last but not least, we have the Oh So Sweet Demi Bra and Oh So Sweet Thong. This stunning set is made of hand-cut scalloped lace. Both pieces’ straps can be adjusted to your figure to ensure the perfect fit.
For the Honeymoon
After the wedding, you may head off on your honeymoon immediately or spend some time basking in post-wedding bliss first. Either way, you need some lingerie and swimwear to commemorate the occasion.
When it comes to lingerie, consider the following sets:
-
Sweet Nothing Set – Available in black and ivory, the Sweet Nothing Bra is made of sheer mesh. Its balcony bandeau demi-shaped cups are just as seductive as they are comfortable. The matching Sweet Nothing Briefs provide medium coverage with their mid-rise thong.
- You 2 Set – If floral lace is more your style, the You 2.0 Bra has your name on it. Made of sheer lace, this tantalizing triangle bra is wireless and padding-free. The You Thong can complete the look with its flounced side straps and mid-rise Brazilian cut.
Honeymoons often include some relaxing days by the beach or pool. If yours falls into this category, pack our So Chic Halterneck Bikini Top in your suitcase. It comes in a wide range of bright colors and can be tied in three different ways, giving you plenty of options to try out throughout your vacation.
