You’ve seen the classic, “bride”, “bridesmaid”, “maid of honor” robes, and they make for the sweetest pictures. If this is the direction you’d like to take, there are sooo many options available on Amazon, Etsy, etc.
A boho, modern, or industrial bride you may have a desire to do things a little differently, which is quite alright. Floral robes, or using an array of shades in your color palette can also make for gorgeous photos as well. As a matter of fact, choosing robes without the text, or a simple monogram allows those in your tribe to reuse their robes without feeling awkward about the wording on the back.

One of my brides was really thoughtful about everything in her getting ready room, and was very meticulous about all the small details that made her wedding stand out. I absolutely loved that she thought to bring a tray that matched her decor that allowed me to create a flatly of the rings, her accessories, her cute little purse and shoes.
I think the Mr. & Mrs. trays can be cute, but purchasing a tray that you can reuse or display in your home may make for a better investment. Check out these unique trays to use to display your accessories”

Whether it’s a mimosa or sparkling cider, those bubbly flute pics give the ultimate glam vibes. If you’re getting dressed in a hotel, or your caterers will only show up at cocktail hour, reusable plastic flutes can be a safe option while everyone is running around trying to get ready. They also can make for easy cleanup when it’s time to head out.

Now this is a given, but being able to see yourself in your entirety is a must. It’s your wedding day for goodness sakes! Most event venues should have a full length mirror in your dressing suite. If, for whatever the reason, this is not the case, I’d suggest heading over to Walmart or a Dollar Store to find a cheap mirror to be used the day of. These mirrors may not photograph as nicely as a full length framed mirror, but you’ll get a good idea of your full ‘fit.

One way to elevate that iconic bridal gown, or tux pic is by ditching the generic hanger that comes with your attire, and replacing it with a customized wire hanger. The links below allow for you to select between a “bride”, “groom”, “bridesmaid”, or personalized hanger for your big day. Imagine passing the personalized hanger down to your future children one day a long with your wedding dress. How sweet!
