As a bride, getting married not only marks a major milestone in your life — it’s also one of the few opportunities to truly celebrate your nearest and dearest in your way, your style, your aesthetic. That’s pretty major in itself! From the menu, to the music, to the master (or mistress) of ceremonies, there’s a lot to keep track of and get right. And picking your wedding style aesthetic? That’s often the biggest hurdle of all. But weddings aren't just overwhelming for brides-to-be. Think of all the guests who have to dress the part for the ceremony and blend in with a dress code that their wardrobe isn't initially fond of. You want to make sure every inch of you is Instagram-ready for the big day, and a huge part of it is choosing the right attire. So whether you're a bride-to-be, bridesmaid, or even a prospective Maid of Honour, we’ve pulled together a guide to ensure everyone gets what they want on your wedding day—especially you. Who Runs The World? Brides! It's easy for every bride-to-be to get panicky by all the planning that goes into their weddings, but it's important to remember that your outfits are the one thing you can control completely. You don't have to worry about whether or not your cake will be delivered or if your photographer will show up on time—just focus on choosing your wedding dress and coordinating all the other pieces in your wardrobe around it. Starting with this mindset will make everything else seem like a piece of (your wedding) cake. The trick is to plan and ensure that you're prepared for every event on your calendar. That way, you won't be caught off guard when it comes time to put together your look for the wedding—or any other pre- or post-wedding event! For A Bridal Shower To Remember Interestingly, it doesn't have to be white, but it should still fit your wedding vibe (or maybe not at all). If you are the bride, and you are throwing your own bridal shower, then we suggest that you set the dress code based on your own personal style. This is your day, your party, and it should be just what you want it to be. If that means wearing a pair of jeans and a t-shirt or flaunting a ball gown with a tiara and sash made of ribbons, go for it! If you will let someone else host your bridal shower, follow their lead on the party theme. If they want everyone to wear black tie outfits or swimsuits with flip-flops, then bring it on! We believe every woman should feel like she's on top of her game no matter the occasion, so we offer an array of styles from casual to elegant and everything in between. From Blooming To Beaming: Finding The Perfect White Dress It's never easy to find the right style and fit when dealing with so many variables: your body type, your personality, what your future mother-in-law wants—the list goes on (but remember, it’s your day, your choice). Either way, don’t worry—we've got your back. We've outlined some of our favourite wedding dresses that are worth a detour on your ensemble if a wedding gown is not your vibe. Thank us later.

For The Bridesmaids: Stealing Hearts Without Stealing The Show If you've ever been a bridesmaid, you know the drill. You show up on the wedding day and are handed a dress that's a size or two too big or small, with no time to go shopping for something that actually fits. Or, you may have been forced to wear a bridesmaid dress that's in dispute with your skin tone, body shape, and overall personality. But MESHKI brides know how to ensure everyone ends up with a look that suits them best. Here’s what we mean… Bridesmaid Dress Shopping Guide For The Bride Finding the perfect bridesmaid dress is almost harder than finding the perfect wedding gown because you’ve (usually) got more than one person and style to think about. They need to be comfortable enough to dance in but not so comfy that they look like they’re lounging. Stylish enough for social media but not too flashy to take over the whole event. So how do you know if your bridesmaids' dresses are hitting all these marks? Start by choosing a theme! If you don't know what theme to choose, opt for neutral colours like beige or cream—they'll work everywhere! Check out our LEXIA Scoop Low Neck Midi Dress. It's one beautiful bridesmaid dress that complements instead of clashes with your bridal dress. Earth tones are also striking. Think of green leaves, grey skies, red roses, or the beautiful sunset.

Bridesmaid Dress Shopping Guide For The Bridesmaid Bridesmaid dress etiquette has changed over the years. You no longer have to wear a dress that isn't your favourite. These days, bridesmaids are given the freedom to pick their own wedding aesthetics. But with this greater prerogative comes a greater responsibility to dress the part. For starters, you should pick a colour that matches the wedding theme. This one seems obvious, but it's important!
