Attention ladies and brides-to-bes, your wedding day undergarments can make or break your wedding look! Of course you want your lingerie to look pretty for your wedding day, but it also needs to be functional. You’re in for a long day and the last thing you need is to be stuffed into uncomfortable, ill-fitting lingerie that quits the day well before you do. If you want to avoid this problem, read on, so you don’t make the same mistake some of us made on our wedding days.
Longline Bra
Longline bras are fantastic for brides who are wearing mermaid or strapless gowns. They offer support and shape without squeezing you like a sausage casing. Although longline bras can be found nearly everywhere, we recommend going to an establishment that is able to professionally fit you and discuss the best options for your wedding day.
Shapewear
Brides who are walking down the aisle in sheath dresses should definitely pick up some shapewear, which will create a smooth silhouette without showing a definite line of demarcation where your underwear ends and the rest of the dress begins. You don’t need to invest in head-to-toe shapewear, but we recommend buying something that specifically targets and masks your trouble spots.
Garter
We’re suckers for a pretty garter, and even if the garter toss is persona non grata at your wedding, we don’t think there’s anything wrong with donning one and letting it be your little secret… at least until your wedding night rolls around.
Cups And Seamless Underwear
Some brides can eschew bras and shapewear and everything else because all they need is a little help in the bust department. If this sounds like you, have your seamstress sew some (bust enhancing) cups into your dress and be on your way. Don’t forget to get some great seamless underwear though. We highly recommend the seamless underwear at Victoria’s Secret.
Now, we are going to divert from tradition before we close out. Your bridal undergarments do not need to be white. You can wear black, ivory, champagne, rose or go crazy and get hot pink. Wear whatever color you desire, and as long as it doesn’t show through your dress, you’re good. Now get out there and start shopping, girls!

Sometimes you have the whole cake already and all you need is the little cherry on top. This is exactly the case with the Roces family! They had a beautiful Holiday wedding at the Ritz Carlton in Key Biscayne with their closest friends and family… all you really need to have an unforgettable ceremony. I wish you & your growing family the absolute best & may there be one day when we can capture them all smiling at the camera at the same time 😉 😉

Another beautiful wedding at The Palms hotel in Miami Beach. This place is just wonderful! close to the beach, boardwalk, nice indoor and outdoor decor…the list goes on! And so I had the pleasure of being a part of another warm and quaint destination wedding, my favorites! Jessica, Craig and friends & family were a delight to meet and spend the day with. It is apparent that they are all very lucky to have each other! Best of luck to you both!!
Engagement session on Main Street and wedding at the Don Shula Hotel! Rashelda, Teddy and their friends & family enjoyed a beautiful evening of sparkling decor, laughter & dancing and most importantly Love!

What an incredibly beautiful wedding…Kristy and Antonio celebrated their union at the Double Tree in Biscayne with their family & friends. There were tears, smiles, laughs & craziness!! I don’t think they could have asked for a more perfect day. And I’m so grateful I was given the honor to be a part of it. After all the fun we had during their engagement session at the Key Biscayne Lighthouse, I just knew the wedding was going to be spectacular!! And that it was… 🙂
Another great thing about their wedding was all the wonderful vendors they chose. The entire wedding ran smoothly and beautifully. Thank you all for making it that much easier to capture their wonderful memories!

Kristin and Jon had a beautiful quaint wedding ceremony next to the Key Biscayne Lighthouse, – on the windiest day of the year! Just like Love itself, no wind, storm or rain can come between the undeniable connection between them. My best wishes to you both, now and always…
Kay-Ann and Marquel had a lovely wedding ceremony and reception at the beautiful Comber Hall in Coral Gables. It was all that a wedding should be, warm, intimate & filled with loving friends and family. It was such a pleasure being a part of it, I’m truly honored!
Tania and Javier have been the most amazing & fun couple I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and working with. From the engagement session at the fair to their fun-filled wedding, their love shines through in every image! Thank you both, along with your friends and family for such a great night. You are now, not only my bride and groom, but also my friends. Wishing you a happily ever after, with love. Andy 🙂
