What to Wear

When it comes to your bridal boudoir session, the right outfit can elevate your confidence and create stunning images. Here are some great options to consider:

  • White Lingerie: We can help you choose pieces that complement your body type and make you feel fabulous.
  • Sentimental Jewelry: Incorporate your engagement ring or other meaningful pieces.
  • White Button-Down Shirt: A classic choice that adds a touch of elegance.
  • Veil: Use your wedding veil or one from our client closet for a romantic touch.
  • Wedding Details: Bring along shoes, a garter, or any other wedding accessories you plan to use.
  • Something Special: Think about what your partner loves to see you in—this could be a fun surprise! Do they love a certain sports team? Love to game?
  • Sheer Fabrics: A window sheer or white bedsheet can create beautiful, soft images.
  • Bridal Robe: Wear your own or borrow one from our collection.
  • Confidence: Ultimately, remember that your partner loves you just as you are. Show off your natural beauty!
  • Flowers: Fresh or Silk flowers can add a lovely pop of color and romance.

When to Book

To ensure a smooth experience, it's best to book your session:

  • 2-3 Months Before Your Wedding: A must for scheduling your session and ensuring your gift is delivered on time.
  • Many Brides Book Up to a Year in Advance: This gives you ample time to plan.
  • More Time Equals Flexibility: If you want to break up payments or schedule away from other wedding expenses, earlier is always better!

What to Give

Here are some popular gift ideas that your partner will love:

  • Album: A timeless keepsake that beautifully showcases your session.
  • Mini Accordion Book: Perfectly pocket-sized for a sweet surprise.
  • Polaroids: Hand these out during your wedding day or honeymoon for a fun touch.
  • Wall Art: Create a stunning piece for your home that commemorates this special moment.
