What is a Curated Wedding Wardrobe?
We have discussed how the wedding industry is pivoting in the era of TikTok. One idea that has gained popularity in the past year or two in light of emerging from covid is choosing a specific wedding wardrobe. Now that people are celebrating again, brides are prioritizing their visions and dreams over tradition, including fashion.
It goes by the name of a capsule wedding wardrobe or a curated wedding wardrobe.
What is that?
It’s having a specific set of outfits for all your wedding-related events. There are many reasons why having a capsule wardrobe planned for your wedding planning era might be an excellent idea for you to dive into, and we’re going to talk about some of them now!

The concept is an idea for brides to embrace their individuality and creativity throughout the entire celebration of being a bride. Wedding planners were frustrated because there were so many guides and help to find a dream dress but very little help outside of that. It’s a way of appreciating and celebrating the uniqueness of every party and event and understanding your wedding is a series of important get-togethers with the ones you love.
One of the biggest benefits of having a curated wedding wardrobe is that it takes the pressure off finding the perfect wedding dress. The wedding dress is treated as the single most important piece of clothing someone will ever buy. By welcoming different outfits that are carefully planned, you can play with different styles that allow you to express yourself in many ways. It’s a way of protecting your peace and treating fashion playfully instead of something daunting and serious.
So, how do you curate a wardrobe? First, you will want to create mood boards. Think of all of your parties and celebrations and their themes. What feelings do you want to evoke? Create mood boards and utilize TikTok and blogs to help you see fashion pieces in action! My biggest tip is to use the hashtag #weddingwardrobe on TikTok. You will be amazed at how many different styles of brides and fashion you will see. After you have a vision board, nail down a budget and your needs. Everyone’s parties will be done differently, so choose pieces and visions that reflect the reality of your situation.

Make sure to take into account accessories and shoes as well. Remember to stick to your authentic self. You don’t need to purchase the most expensive, upscale garments and accessories if that is not who you are. Thrift and upcycle when possible.

The best time to start shopping for your wardrobe is sooner than later. Wedding planning is already stressful enough, so make sure to begin purchasing early on. Be as prepared as possible for all the events you have planned for your timeline.
Although a curated wedding wardrobe is relatively new, it is brilliant. When we get married, we focus so much on the big day, and that’s it. There are so many moments and celebrations along the way that deserve careful attention and detail too.
