Classic Matching Robes

A simple silk robe for you and your bridesmaids is a tried and true staple! It has been done, but it has been done before because it works. Silk robes offer the perfect combination of classy and comfy when it comes to getting ready for your big day. A bonus to a nice robe is that when it comes time to put on your dress, you don’t have to worry about messing up your hair and makeup… and neither do your bridesmaids!

These stunning floral robes from Birdy Grey offer a more whimsical, feminine look that is stunning for a spring or summer wedding. Or if you want to change it up a bit for a more elegant and elevated look, these customizable floor length robes will be both stylish and comfortable for your getting ready events.

Pajama Party

Take cozy to a new level! Everyone loves a good slumber party, so give your bridesmaids the gift of a comfortable set of pajamas that they will wear for years to come. Matching sets of PJs are timeless, and you can elevate the fun by giving these to your bridesmaids during your bachelorette party if you are having a slumber party themed night. Elevate this further by embroidering your bridesmaids Pjs with their initials, including slippers, and having your bridesmaids PJs match their bridesmaids dress color scheme.

For a cozy yet elevated getting ready look, these matching set pajamas from Birdy Grey are both comfy and chic. For a more customizable look, this 4-piece pajama set from amazon lets your bridesmaids choose their own adventure for their PJ look without compromising the color scheme.

 


Themed T-Shirts

Are you getting married with a certain theme? Maybe its a simple garden party themed wedding, or maybe your wedding has a certain “hashtag” that you want to translate to your getting ready outfits. Integrate your theme into your getting ready outfit to have your pre-wedding events seamlessly melt into your ceremony and reception.

For a themed getting ready outfit, customization is a must. These embroidered sweatshirts from Etsy can be personalized and are still incredibly chic. Explore Etsy for more customizable shirts for any wedding theme!

Like robes, a nice button down nightgown is breathable and easy to get on and off, so you do not have to worry about messing up your hair and makeup as you slip into your wedding dress.

Opt for a nightgown and robe set, like this adorable slip from Show Me your Mumu paired with a matching robe!
