Items You’ll Want for Your Wedding

Once you’ve found the gown of your dreams, you might think your days of shopping for the dress are over. However, while you’re getting the gown tailored to fit you just right, don’t forget about some essential undergarments that’ll keep you feeling comfortable and fashion-faux-pas-free throughout your big day. From well-fitting strapless bras to shapewear you’ll hardly remember you have on, we’ve found what you’ll want on your pre-wedding shopping to-do list.

A Strapless Bra That’ll Stay in Place

Spend your wedding day doing everything else but having to constantly grab onto your strapless bra and pull it up. Get a perfectly fit strapless bra like this one, which has silicone fabric that holds the skin and doesn't slip. Plus, the stretchy fabric feels smooth against your back and the cups are lightly lined for full support and coverage.

A Bodysuit for a Dress with a Plunging Neckline

Cover all your bases and ensure that your dress looks flawless with the perfect bodysuit underneath. This David’s Bridal bodysuit smooths, shapes and feels secure so you can move around in that plunge or low back dress.

Cooling High-Waisted Shapewear Underwear

Consider your undergarments as the best wedding day accessories, especially if they also double as a cooling agent to keep heat away from your body. This high-waisted underwear uses NILIT® Breeze yarns to keep you feeling fresh all night long.

A Slip that Doubles as Shapewear

Wearing a shorter gown or planning on changing into an after-party dress? Invest in a slip that also serves as shapewear, like this one from Spanx that uses a powerful mesh fabric to create an undergarment for you that you won’t mind wearing.

Backless Strapless Bodysuit

When your dream dress doesn’t leave much room for bulky undergarments, try this backless, strapless bodysuit that’ll keep you feeling supported and keep your dress in the spotlight.

Shapewear Shorts to Help You Move

If you’re looking for the ultimate undergarment to help you move around on the dance floor without having to worry, try these smoothing and shaping boy shorts, which use a special fabric that helps prevent digging, chafing and rubbing as you dance the night away.

Convertible Bra for Multiple Outfits

Investing in good undergarments is always a great idea! Pick a convertible bra that lets you adjust the straps so it can be versatile for halter, crisscross or more traditional necklines.
