FAQs
What should a bride wear to a rehearsal dinner?
The right wedding rehearsal dress should suit the mood of your celebration. Think polished but relaxed. You want something that feels special enough for the occasion but comfortable enough to sit, stand, talk and laugh your way through the night. A dress that fits well and feels like you is always the right choice.
Are rehearsal dinner dresses usually white?
Often, yes. But it’s completely up to you. Many brides enjoy wearing white as a pre-wedding ritual, while others choose ivory, subtle neutrals or delicate lace. The key is selecting a look that feels aligned with the tone of your own event.
What dress length works best for a rehearsal dinner?
While there is no single best length for rehearsal dinner dresses, the right choice depends on the venue, time of day and your personal style. Mini dresses can feel modern and celebratory, while midi lengths offer a more refined look.
Can I rewear my rehearsal dinner dress for other bridal events?
Absolutely. Many brides choose their rehearsal dinner dress with versatility in mind. Styles that are comfortable and well-cut often work for bridal showers, engagement parties, as reception dresses, and for day-after events, making them ideal for a wide range of pre and post-wedding festivities and events.
