What Is a Boho Wedding Dress?

The word ‘bohemian’ often relates to the unconventional, with boho brides daring to be a little different from the norm when selecting their gown for the big day. Boho wedding dresses are a highly popular style, mixing romantic and delicate touches with an effortless and chic look. The beautiful silhouette created by this type of design encompasses a free-spirited attitude, keeping things simple and uncomplicated.

Beautiful Materials

The soft style of boho wedding dresses is achieved via some of the delicate materials used, from lace back gown designs to lace-chiffon combination dresses.

Modern Bridal Looks

You can wear a gorgeous boho wedding dress and still feel like a traditional bride, bringing the look into the modern day without sacrificing its unique bohemian style.

Delicate Features

One of the best style features of boho wedding dresses is the delicate touches they include, from lace illusion sleeve designs to floral patterns oozing in romance.

Carefree Bride

While every bride cares about her wedding day, the bohemian style is often seen as a more relaxed and modern take on the romance associated with traditional wedding gown looks, producing a carefree aura that exudes the entire day.

Inspired Wedding Themes

A boho bride will often plan a wedding day around themes to match, whether the day takes place in a dreamy outdoor setting (such as a beach wedding or forest) or somewhere a little more rustic like a country barn wedding venue. A soft boho style is one of the perfect ways to create a free-spirited wedding day inspired by bohemian themes.

How Can You Create the Ultimate Bohemian Style?

When you find your bohemian-inspired, romantic wedding dress, there are lots of other fashion elements you may want to consider while still keeping the look as effortless and simple as possible. 

Boho Wedding Dress Veils

Many modern boho brides decide to ditch the veil, but there are still some beautiful designs you could opt for to enhance the boho style of your wedding dress. This includes romantic lace details or even combining the veil with a floral headpiece.

Boho Wedding Hairstyles

Think about which hairstyles will look perfect with boho wedding dresses, from chic up-dos to soft floating waves with a flower in your long locks. You could even choose a half-up, half-down look for something more casual or add a fringe if feeling a little more daring.

Boho Wedding Accessories

You can also get stunning accessories to complement your boho wedding dress look, which we can talk you through when you visit. Some boho brides even like to book a new appointment specifically to look at accessories to go with their gorgeous dress, such as headpieces and bracelets.

Boho Wedding Shoes

Enhance the gorgeous look with boho-inspired shoes to complement your wedding dress. This includes peep-toe or vintage style wedding shoes, and you could even opt for some of the features you loved about gown ideas you found, such as French lace, ruffles and flower patterns.

Boho Wedding Makeup

It’s always a good idea to plan your wedding makeup once you find your bohemian-inspired wedding dress. Try to encompass the boho look with a soft and delicate look, keeping things elegant and chic.

How to Plan Your Visit

Are you looking for beautiful boho wedding dresses? Plan your day to Serendipity Brides now. Our stylists want to help you find the perfect gown on the day, encompassing styles and features you’ll love.

Getting Started – Search for Ideas

If you’re a bride who loves boho wedding gown styles, but you’re not sure what will suit you best on the day, don’t panic! Our stylists have years of experience, so they can guide you through the process. However, many brides also like to bring at least one or a few ideas along with them on appointment day for inspiration, even if it’s just themes or features they love, such as lace patterns, fringe designs, A-line shaping or off-the-shoulder gown styles.

Choose Who to Bring

Every bride should feel happy and relaxed when trying on different dresses in the search for the perfect wedding gown. Therefore, choose just a few loved ones who you trust to help you rather than a large entourage who could make the process more stressful. The perfect guests will give you helpful advice and support along the way, and we would recommend that parties shouldn’t exceed four people if possible. This keeps the atmosphere calm and enjoyable, giving you lots of space to find a gown you love. Some brides even like to bring just one guest along with them to keep things simple.
