Why is a maternity wedding dress the perfect choice for your wedding with a baby bump?

A maternity wedding dress is the best choice if you're planning a wedding while pregnant. For over 15 years, we've been advising expectant mothers and have made many happy with our maternity bridal wear , something we're very proud of. Many couples plan their wedding before their baby arrives. Often, the decision is made quite spontaneously, and suddenly there's a lot to plan. Besides organizing the ceremony, choosing the perfect wedding dress is, of course, a top priority. After all, you want to feel completely comfortable on your big day!

Our maternity wedding dresses are perfectly tailored to your new curves and give your belly plenty of room to grow, unlike a traditional wedding dress. From our wide selection of cuts, colors, and lengths, you can choose your dream dress. If you keep a few things in mind, you're sure to find the perfect one.

"Many of our maternity wedding dresses are also suitable as nursing dresses."

If you've already had your baby and would like to get married while breastfeeding, we highly recommend our nursing wedding dresses , all of which feature easy-to-use breastfeeding access. Our dresses with a wrap-style neckline, for example, can be beautifully combined with a stole or nursing poncho, allowing you to discreetly breastfeed your baby. Furthermore, our dresses adapt to your figure, even without a baby bump. This includes our short maternity wedding dress with a lace bodice and pleats , where the flexible pleated skirt perfectly conforms to your body, as well as the sheath maternity wedding dress made of Ecovero , which is crafted from a super-soft and stretchy fabric.

Your perfect maternity wedding dress

"Which wedding dress for pregnant women suits me?"

There's no doubt that choosing a maternity wedding dress from such a wide selection of styles isn't easy. But after 15 years of experience, we have the best tips for you on how to find your absolute dream dress. The best way to start is by gathering inspiration on our Pinterest boards . We regularly research the latest wedding trends and pin the most beautiful ideas along with our matching wedding dresses. You can also discover the most beautiful wedding stories from our customers on our Mamarella blog .

Of course, it's also important to consider the time of year you're getting married and whether you have a specific theme in mind. For a romantic winter wedding, you might choose a long maternity wedding dress and a cozy cashmere maternity bolero , while for a bohemian-style summer wedding, a short lace maternity wedding dress would certainly be a beautiful choice.

Besides the location and wedding month, you should also consider in advance what your best features are and which areas you might prefer to conceal. Different cuts of maternity bridal dresses are more suitable depending on your figure. Below, we'd like to provide you with a guide to help you with your decision.

length
First, you can consider which length you prefer. Long maternity wedding dresses look very elegant, drape beautifully, and are perfect for a grand wedding. Some pregnant brides feel more comfortable with some fabric flowing around their legs, especially if they are experiencing water retention. Floor-length dresses aren't just for taller women. However, if you're a shorter woman and have fallen in love with a long maternity wedding dress, we recommend making an appointment with a tailor well in advance.

Our short maternity wedding dresses beautifully accentuate your baby bump and feature a flowing skirt. Remember to consider accessories like maternity tights and shoes, as these won't be concealed like with long dresses.

"Emphasize your best features and skillfully conceal problem areas"

cut
The A-line cut is particularly popular and flatters almost every figure. A straight cut can also look beautiful if you have a more classic style. If you'd like to emphasize your baby bump, we recommend maternity wedding dresses with an empire waist and our figure-hugging formal maternity dresses . Choosing the perfect neckline and sleeves is also crucial. Flowing sleeves and three-quarter lengths flatter your arms, while a V-neck accentuates your décolletage. A backless design can also be a real eye-catcher, as seen in our A-line maternity wedding dress with a backless design . However, if you prefer something without a deep neckline, we offer elegant, minimalist options such as the Ecovero maternity wedding dress with a stand-up collar or the sheath maternity wedding dress made of Ecovero fabric.

We recommend ordering special shapewear for pregnant women to go with all maternity wedding dresses. It shapes your new curves and provides gentle support, especially in the belly area.

Material and color
Depending on your personal preferences and the occasion, you can wear maternity wedding dresses made of lace, chiffon, silk, and satin. If you have a smaller bust and your belly isn't very large yet, you can choose materials that visually create more volume, such as glossy satin or opulent lace. When choosing a color, you don't have to limit yourself to classic white. Depending on your skin tone and hair color, dusty rose, eggshell beige, a nude shade, or even blue can look stunning.

Maternity wedding dresses for civil ceremonies

A maternity wedding dress for a civil ceremony is now just as important as a wedding dress for a church wedding. Often, couples only have a civil ceremony, which of course doesn't mean they can't have a wedding dress with lace in white or ivory. We have consciously specialized in classic, elegant maternity wedding dresses that you can easily wear to both a civil ceremony and a church wedding. Many of our customers, for example, choose a short maternity wedding dress for the civil ceremony and later, after the baby arrives, celebrate their church wedding in a long dress.

Festive maternity dresses for the registry office

If you prefer a classic, elegant look and don't want to get married in white, our festive maternity and nursing dresses in delicate rose, powder tones or with floral prints are a great alternative for the registry office, as well as for a free wedding ceremony.

What are the current trends in maternity bridal fashion?

Wedding trend "Bohemian Chic"

A popular trend that combines ethnic style with a hippie look and a lighthearted feel, making it ideal for an outdoor wedding. Our short lace wedding dresses are perfect for this playful look, which pairs beautifully with wildflowers, grasses, and delicate roses. For example, a maternity wedding dress with boho floral lace is perfect for a boho wedding. The vintage-style floral lace creates a wonderfully feminine look. A floral crown made of loosely arranged flowers with straw or grass accentuates any bohemian wedding dress.

Wedding trend "Vintage Wedding"

With this theme, you can certainly opt for more elaborate wedding dresses with floral lace. Our vintage-style maternity wedding dresses are the perfect choice if you're dreaming of a romantic wedding with all the trimmings. You can combine them with wide satin sashes or our elegant sashes adorned with jewelry, as well as a striking floral crown and/or a beautiful braided hairstyle. For a truly vintage feel, consider our lace maternity wedding dress with a stand-up collar and open back , or our maternity wedding dress with a sweetheart neckline . Other classics include our long maternity wedding dresses in floral lace, eyelet lace, or our A-line dresses with lace details on the bodice or sleeves.

Wedding trend “Greenery Wedding”

A minimalist trend that perfectly complements our classic maternity wedding dresses, showcasing them to their best advantage. In our blog post, you'll learn everything you need to know about greenery weddings and which styles we recommend. This trend is also ideal for couples who decide to get married at the last minute and don't have much time for planning.

Plus Size Maternity Wedding Dresses: Our Bridal Collection for Large Sizes

A beautiful maternity wedding dress in plus size ? No problem! Many of our dresses are also available in sizes 48-52 and are specially designed to meet the needs of expectant mothers with extra curves. Many wedding dresses look absolutely stunning on curvy women. Clever cuts beautifully accentuate your feminine curves and cleverly conceal any problem areas. The flowing fabrics flatter your figure, subtly highlight your bump, and emphasize your best features. Feel free to order two different sizes if you're unsure about the fit.

Bestsellers: our most popular maternity wedding dresses

There are some wedding dresses that simply never go out of style. They are absolute classics that have stood the test of time and look wonderful on many pregnant brides. For this reason, we keep some of our best-selling wedding dresses in our collection and only occasionally make minor changes to the details.

What can I combine with my maternity wedding dress?

In addition to the aforementioned maternity tights for summer and winter, a maternity shaper can provide excellent support under your wedding dress. Without bothersome seams, it creates a smooth silhouette and offers support for your growing belly. Our Light Support Maternity Shaper with a soft waistband and reinforced panels is a great solution for any season.

"Cardigans and boleros for a cozy look"

Especially with sleeveless maternity wedding dresses or dresses with short sleeves, a maternity bolero or cardigan is indispensable. In the warmer months, a bridal stole or sash is also sufficient; this can also be ideal coverage for a church wedding. Our short cashmere bolero is absolutely popular and a true all-rounder, looking fantastic with all maternity wedding dresses.

"A maternity coat for the wedding and later"

For the cooler months, we recommend our beautiful maternity coats . These coats can also be wonderfully combined with maternity and nursing dresses after the wedding. Our warm maternity cardigans, such as the cashmere bridal bolero made from 100% soft cashmere wool, accentuate all maternity wedding dresses in a feminine and classic way and are the perfect accessories when you're unsure about the weather. They can also be a great help in the evenings during the summer, especially if you're wearing a dress with short sleeves.

"Personalize your maternity wedding dress with a sash or belt"

Some of our wedding dresses already come with a sash that beautifully accentuates your empire waistline. But our other maternity wedding dresses can also be wonderfully combined with a satin sash or a sash adorned with gemstones. A belt is also a subtle highlight for your wedding dress.

Which maternity bra fits under a wedding dress?

We offer our maternity and nursing bras in numerous sizes and highly recommend our skin-toned nursing bra models without irritating seams. If you're wearing a maternity wedding dress, the empire waistline will beautifully accentuate your bust. Our bras create a lovely décolletage and provide optimal support for your breasts all day long.

As a guest at a wedding, wearing our elegant dresses

If you're invited to a wedding as a guest or maid of honor, you'll also find a wide selection of festive maternity and nursing dresses in our shop. In these dresses, you won't steal the bride's thunder, but you'll still look radiant.
