Picking the Perfect Bridal Lingerie

For those who are about to get married, and want to look sexy on the wedding night, opting to wear the right kind of bridal lingerie is a sound idea. Face it, the wedding night comes around only once in a lifetime (in some cases, anyway) and it is an ideal occasion to look alluring and also feel more beautiful.

Before you even start your search, you first need to decide on what your goals are. I know, that sounds way too practical. But it will help you decide what direction you need to go with your shopping. Do you want to look seductive, or demure? Erotic, sensual or sexy (not the same thing, look it up)? Your decisions here set the course for what follows.

Next, consider the idea that you really want TWO sets of lingerie. Think about it; you will be getting dressed and taking pictures for a couple hours, the actual wedding and more pictures are a couple more hours, and all the while you are highly stressed. Then, at least a couple hours dancing and making merry at the reception. By that time, what you have on under your gorgeous dress will feel like workout clothes. Is that really how you want to look and feel on your magical wedding night?

So what you really need is one set of lingerie that will give you proper support, and keep all your "treasures" safe and sound. And you also want them to make you feel as though you are the most beautiful woman in the world. Then, you want a set of lingerie that is meant to be seen by only 2 people, you and your betrothed. That can be more for show, since you may not actually be wearing it for very long anyway......

Wearing a corset under an informal wedding gown might be inappropriate. A corset is a very constraining item, so it is more appropriate for very traditional dress. You might look to wear a bustier instead, which is a little more "style over substance". There are many choices including strapless numbers or tight fitting basques. Just make sure it complements your wedding dress. Take the time to evaluate different styles to see what feels right. You may even find something that you may not have considered wearing before.

You should make the final decision based on what you want, although people will suggest different garments and try to give you advice. It’s you that has to wear the items and you who need to feel sexy in your chosen bridal wear. You might select items such as a satin corset and stockings, a bridal bustier and perhaps satin gloves. Or you might want to choose something different like a sheer bralette and panty set with a lovely crinoline . The most important thing is the overall effect on how you feel, so you will want to take this into account when choosing apparel.

Remember, go for something that will enhance your best assets. Honestly look at yourself in the mirror and decide what to accentuate. Do you really like your bustline, or are you more proud of your behind? Do you have a curvaceous hourglass figure, or long legs? This is one time for every woman to put aside her body issues and say, "You know what, I've got a really hot ......"

There is much more to your wedding day than just choosing the right gown and best bridal lingerie. You will be the absolutely center of the world for your friends and family for this short period of time, and you want to embrace every second of it. Then your wedding night should be one that you remember for the rest of your life. The right choice of bridal lingerie just makes the whole thing better.
