I’ve been a bridal boudoir photographer in Northwest Arkansas for more than a decade, so I’m a self-proclaimed expert when it comes to what to wear for bridal boudoir photos. Bridal boudoir is typically different than other boudoir shoots. Because it represents this special time in your life, bridal boudoir should have a nod to the wedding day. I love when brides bring veils to the bridal boudoir photo shoot. Also, bringing the actual lingerie you’ll wear on the wedding night or on the honeymoon is a great way to entice your partner. On the wedding day, it’s fun to give your partner a book from your bridal boudoir photo session, which I can help create.

I’ve scoured the internet to find some of my favorite and best bridal boudoir outfit ideas and will share them below. You’ll see that most of these are white, which I really like for the boudoir bridal experience.

The Ultimate Bridal Boudoir Outfit Idea for Your Boudoir Photographs

Y’all… I did it. I found the best bridal boudoir outfit collection. It is from Honey Birdette, which is a company I’ve ordered from personally. I can stand behind their quality and reputation. They make really great boudoir outfits. This bridal collection for boudoir includes everything you need for a full session.
