A true bohemian is defined as “a wanderer; living a socially unconventional life.” According to Merriam Webster, boho bridal has turned towards festival dressing, laissez-faire slips, and gauzy separates rather than all things irreverent and atypical. Coachella-inspired aisles are slowly dwindling in favor of regal affairs and fashion-forward glam; in the process, bohemian bridal has taken on new forms of irreverence, and an added polish.
BOHO WEDDING DRESSES
Opt for the unconventional in the form of delicate laces, gossamer meshes, and floral motifs for an overall organic feel that is effortless and inspired—be it for your upcoming woodland, beach, or countryside celebration.

Lace insert godets on a sexy slip dress make this gown feel more down to earth and less Studio 54.

Even though this dress is midi, it still is bridal. Floral embroidery in a midi length is perfect for a spring or fall garden wedding and will look just as chic with a veil.

Airy and gauzy fabrics are boho bridal material. Finish the look with a straw hat and go barefoot if you dare.
