Wedding Day Romance with Wonderbra Bridal Lingerie

When planning your bridal look lingerie might not be top of your list (I mean, that’s just for the wedding night, right?!), but with wedding dress trends including ever lower necklines, illusion backs and lace – not to mention slinky silhouettes, finding the right lingerie solution is key.

A good lingerie set isn’t just about looking pretty, and that’s why we love Wonderbra’s bridal collection. A brand well known for it’s playful, sexy and stylish personality, their bridal underwear provides a pretty AND practical solution that doesn’t just look and feel great but provides the perfect foundations to your wedding day outfit (no unsightly lumps and bumps here!)

We asked Wonderbra to send us a selection of our favourite pieces so you can see for yourself!

WHAT IS YOUR NUMBER ONE TOP TIP FOR ANY BRIDES TO BE?

Enjoy every minute!

If you find yourself stressing about every little detail, take a step back and remember the reason you’re getting married in the first place. Weddings are all about love, so surround yourself with family, friends and a bridal party who will help you stay calm and give you practical advice for the inevitable dilemmas you’ll face during the planning process.

Don’t forget your wedding pro team have all done this a hundred times before, so if you’re stuck ask them the question! They’ve probably got the perfect solution already and waiting for you.

WHAT ARE THE BIG TRENDS FOR WEDDING DRESSES THIS SEASON? WHAT ABOUT BRIDESMAIDS?

This year we’re seeing a bit shift towards minimalism when it comes to bridal style

Dainty all-over lace is out and texture is in – think floral embellishments, fringing and pleats against silky smooth satins and floaty tulle. The latest collections from Halfpenny London, Andrea Hawkes and Luella’s Bridal all have great examples.

This trend had a timely boost after Meghan Markle wore her stunningly minimal boat-necked Givenchy wedding dress earlier this year, and we’re already seeing plenty of designers follow Claire Waight Keller’s lead with off-the-shoulder designs and clean silhouettes which call for a perfect lingerie solution!

For your maids, separates, jumpsuits and mismatched dresses are all big for 2018/19. It’s all about letting your best girls stay true to their personal style, whilst coordinating perfectly with your palette and style.

WE BELIEVE THAT WEARING THE RIGHT LINGERIE ON YOUR BIG DAY MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE. DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIFIC ADVICE TO HELP FUTURE BRIDES TO FIND THE PERFECT LINGERIE?

After you’ve found ‘the one’, ask your bridal advisor for their guidance on the best lingerie solutions for your dress. In their years of experience there’s not much they haven’t seen and will be able to advice you on what options will enhance the look of your dress.

There’s nothing worse than VPL or a pesky bra strap ruining the lines of your outfit, so take your lingerie along to your early fittings to make sure it all works together, and you have plenty of time to find alternatives if needed.

WHY WOULD YOU RECOMMEND WONDERBRA AS A WEDDING DAY STAPLE FOR ANY UPCOMING BRIDES?

Whether your dress is backless, strapless, illusion or plunge, Wonderbra has a solution that will work with any dress. While bridal lingerie can be very pretty, it’s often very much style over substance and not actually suitable for wearing under your dress. Wonderbra have managed to perfectly combine the pretty and practical with their bridal collection, with soft ivory and nude fabrics and lace details.

Their bras also super comfortable (I actually wore the Wonderbra Ultimate Strapless on my own wedding day, so I am talking from experience here!), taking you from wedding day to wedding night seamlessly. Because let’s face it, the last thing you’ll be thinking of at the end of your wedding day is changing your underwear!

WE’VE SEEN SO MANY ICONIC CELEBRITY WEDDING DRESSES OVER THE YEARS, WHICH ONE IS YOUR FAVOURITE?

I’ve a big soft spot for the bridal jumper and skirt by Caroline Herrera that Olivia Palermo wore for her civil ceremony in New York. Bridal separates are  her understated, modern style and the fact she chose to keep it simple.

I also loved Kaley Cuoco’s custom Reem Acra wedding dress and cape, plus her plunging lace Tadashi Shoji bridal jumpsuit for the reception was ALL the heart eye emojis. Everything this girl does is so unbelieveably COOL!

And of course, Meghan Markle’s minimal boatneck gown was also a stand out dress for me – I’m a huge fan of the off the shoulder look so I was thrilled to see her rock the look on such an important occasion.

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE GUEST OUTFIT FROM THE WEDDING OF THE YEAR? WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THE ROYAL WEDDING OF COURSE!

All eyes on Amal Clooney! I mean, who else could wear sunshine yellow to a Royal wedding and look so effortlessly chic? Love, love, loved it!

Lady Kitty Spencer’s statement floral dress also scored some serious style points with the team here at B.LOVED HQ.
