In addition to capturing photos of the bride getting ready and photos of her bride squad, many of the bridal suite photos include making the wedding gown the focus. For example ——
After all, most bridal gowns cost thousands of dollars…and many of the gowns may never be worn again after the wedding day. Here are stunning real life examples bridal suite photos that highlight the wedding gown.
All of the photos have the wedding gown on a dress form. A dress form gives a photographer more versatility for staging photos than if the wedding gown was on a hanger or lying flat on a bed.
Your wedding gown is more than just a dress. It’s a symbol of the moment your story steps into a new chapter. By displaying it on a dress form in your bridal suite, you give that moment the spotlight it deserves.
If you are in the SF Bay Area you can rent dress forms (and garment racks and steamers) from Mannequin Madness. Check out our Bridal Suite Getting-Ready Package.
For brides who live in other cities, if you factor the cost of the rental fee for a dress form plus shipping to receive and return- it is cheaper to purchase a dress form.
We also sell new and used dress forms, as many brides want to keep their gown on display after the wedding. Or they want to use a dress form to sell merchandise in their Poshmark store.
While most brides choose a dress form covered in white fabric, we personally think a dress form in black fabric is a better choice because of the contrast against the wedding dress.
Your wedding gown is more than just a dress. It’s a symbol of the moment your story steps into a new chapter. By displaying it on a dress form in your bridal suite, you give that moment the spotlight it deserves.
We hope these ideas inspire you to showcase your gown in a way that makes your wedding morning photos just as unforgettable as the walk down the aisle. We have more inspirational images on our Creative Wedding Dress Photo Ideas Board on Pinterest
