5 Bridal Trends We’re Loving… Especially After The Royal Wedding

We’re still in our feels over the Royal Wedding this weekend. That dress!

We loved the simplicity and chicness of Meghan Markle’s dress that really made a statement on her big day.

While some women will be setting out to achieve her exact look on their big day, it has inspired us to showcase five bridal trends we are loving right now that can still give you that Meghan style vibe with your own individual twist…

#1: Statement veils

While veils are traditional in their own right, they have been updated this season with beautiful statement details. It’s truly all about details and while Meghan opted for a scalloped hem with floral embroidery details, you can go glitzy with glittery embellishments or classic with pearls.

Check out this Floral Beaded Scallop Edge Cathedral Veil from David’s Bridal.

#2: Modest silhouettes

Modesty is back and this year, it looks fabulous with the high necks and sleeve details we are seeing. Meghan went simplistic with her long sleeves and it looks so elegant and polished. Those days of it being hard to find a wedding dress with sleeves is over.

Check out the following plus size wedding dresses with long sleeves that are sure to have you feeling like Cinderella on your big day:

One of the best ways to show off some sexy but not overdo it is to show off them shoulders. Meghan opted for a boat neckline that showed them off but if you’re a fan of off the shoulder styles, they are a big trend this season, including the classic strapless silhouette.

Here’s 3 plus size wedding dresses that will give lots of shoulder action as you strut down the aisle:

#4: Structured fabrics

Meghan opted for a more structured fabric with no lace and had brides-to-be chatting about how amazing and polished the subtle but chic fabric looked against her gorgeous veil and tiara. Structured fabrics and lines are back this season… it’s all about chic and clean.
