A bridal fashion edit for the barefoot, salty-haired, beach bride! You’ll catch her doing yoga at sunrise, checking out the farmers’ markets and packing her bags for a tropical honeymoon after the big day.
The beach bride is relaxed and carefree so slinky, easy-to-wear gowns are her design of choice. Beach brides look amazing in mermaid silhouettes, separates and wedding dresses with subtle beading that glistens in the sunlight.
Take a look at these beautiful wedding dresses, shot for our “Swept Away” bridal fashion shoot in Modern Wedding Magazine.
Gown: BellaDonna French Collection by Wendy Makin / Jewellery: Najo
This wedding dress featured an ivory slip with sheer overlay. The delicate streams of sequins and beads elongate the torso and flatter your figure.
Gown: Instyle Bridal / Earrings: Pandora / Bangles: Najo
The fit-and-flare silhouette of this wedding dress accentuates your booty, giving you shape without tonnes of embellishments. We adore the long train so this simple but striking wedding dress too!

These bridal separates are exquisite! A bohemian style twist on the wedding dress, the lace high neckline, bandeau top and fitted skirt are perfect for a beach bride.
Gown: Christina Rossi / Jewellery: Najo
Be the queen of the seas with this regal yet beach ready gown. It combines the timeless elegance of a classic wedding dress with a soft-twist.
Gown: Fashions by Farina / Jewellery: Samantha Wills
This gown is so soft and floaty! The halter-neck and sweet lace bodice are matched with a romantic chiffon skirt with layers of light, angelic fabric.
Gown: Luv Bridal & Formal / Large Ring: Samantha Wills / Thin Ring Band: Pandora
Bridal separates are ideal for a beach wedding because they are slightly more casual than a traditional gown. We are infatuated with the long sleeved illusion lace top!
Gown: Brides by Francesca / Jewellery: Samantha Wills
Here’s a gown for the beach bride who wants to stand out! A sequinned geometric design will capture the moonlight and a detachable train and floral appliques add a touch of flirty fun.
Gown: Q’Nique
With its long sleeves and a low back, this beach wedding dress is a gorgeous option for a free spirit. The lace is more edgy than delicate with fun seventies vibes.
Gown: BellaDonna French Collection by Wendy Makin
This long-sleeved wedding dress is perfect for a beach wedding in the cooler months. Its pearl-like beading adds a soft shimmer to the romantic lace.
