For all their virtues, wedding dresses aren’t the warmest of garments, so inevitably, brides are faced with the dilemma of how to stay toasty on the big day. Unless you’re getting married in a hot climate, or in the height of summer, you’ll probably need to throw something over your shoulders at some point, and your favourite fleece jacket isn’t going to cut it! And of course, for some brides, cover ups are more about style or modesty than heat retention. With this in mind, we wanted to show you where to buy bride and bridesmaids cover ups for your wedding.
More and more bridal designers are including jackets, capes and bride and bridesmaid cover ups in their collections, so that’s a good place to start, as are our recommended boutiques, but if you’ve already found your dress and you’re still on the hunt for the perfect accompaniment, this list of brands is going to be a lifesaver! We’ve made sure to use direct links where possible to make your search easier, and we’ve included options for every budget, too.
