If you’re wondering, what can I wear instead of a wedding dress? The answer is: plenty! There are many non-traditional wedding dresses you can wear instead… and our favorite isn’t even a wedding dress at all! These non-wedding dresses are called bridal jumpsuits, the incredibly stylish trend for brides in 2024. These nontraditional wedding dress alternatives will have you loving the way you look in pantsuits, bridal jumpsuits with capes, sleeves, no sleeves, and even wedding jumpsuits with overskirts for that little something extra. :)
Jumpsuits and Bridal Pantsuits for Weddings
Are wedding jumpsuits popular? You bet! Bridal pantsuits and jumpsuits aren’t just trending for weddings: some brides are wearing one-piece bridal outfits for the wedding shower, engagement party, rehearsal dinner, and bachelorette party. A jumpsuit is an all-in-one outfit: it’s like wearing a romper, but a jumpsuit is designed for the bride to wear — some formal, other jumpsuits are more casual — for weddings. We love the idea of wearing a jumpsuit as your morning after brunch (if you’re planning one) outfit or en route to your honeymoon, too.
If your wedding has turned into a “minimony” (a micro-sized wedding), a small backyard wedding, courthouse wedding, or you’re eloping, these non-traditional wedding dresses are a great alternative to gowns. If you’re a bride who doesn’t like to wear dresses, a jumpsuit will fit the occasion perfectly.
In this post, we’re sharing the best jumpsuits and bridal pantsuits for 2024. We’ve found a jumpsuit for every bride: cheap bridal jumpsuits, jumpsuits with skirts (I didn’t even know that was a thing), jumpsuits with a train, cheap bridal jumpsuits, wide-leg, one-shoulder, jumpsuits with sleeves, strapless, and even bridal pantsuits with capes (another thing I’m learning on my quest for this style, tbh). These pants are incredibly stylish + modern wedding dress alternatives and we’re loving ’em!
