Plan Your Perfect Summer Wedding With Occasions By Design
Planning a summer wedding is a beautiful and exciting journey. With lighter evenings, romantic outdoor settings, and a joyful atmosphere, it’s no wonder summer continues to be one of the most popular seasons to say "I do." If you're tying the knot in 2025, you’ll want your bridal party looking and feeling amazing from head to toe. As a trusted wedding dress shop in Bromsgrove, we’re sharing the latest looks and must-have styles for the season ahead.
Summer Wedding Dress Ideas for Brides
When choosing your bridal gown for summer time, comfort and style go hand in hand. In 2025, we’re seeing a continued love for lightweight fabrics like chiffon, tulle, and crepe. These allow for movement and breathability without compromising elegance. We cater to women of all shapes and sizes. All brides deserve to look gorgeous on their wedding day, that's why we stock plus sized wedding dresses up to 30.
Long Sleeved Wedding Dresses Are Trending
Long Sleeved bridal dresses are also making a statement this year, especially those with sheer detailing or lace. They offer modesty while keeping the look delicate and summery. Strapless gowns, off-the-shoulder designs, and subtle sparkle are all in too, especially for brides dreaming of a sunset ceremony.
Bridesmaid Outfit Ideas for Summer Weddings
Your bridesmaids deserve to shine too, and this season is all about soft, romantic tones. Think blush pink, dusty blue, sage green, and warm champagne hues. These colours flatter a range of skin tones and photograph beautifully in natural light. Check out our blog on top bridesmaid colours for 2025.
Fabrics like satin and chiffon remain favourites, offering flowy silhouettes and elegant movement. Whether you're after mix-and-match dresses or a coordinated bridal party look, your girls will love the chance to choose a style that feels comfortable and flattering as we also cater to curvier bridesmaids with our plus size bridesmaid dresses.
At Occasions by Design, we provide one-to-one or group styling appointments to help you explore all your bridesmaid dress ideas in our relaxing Bromsgrove boutique.
Bridal Attire for Summer Time
The key to the perfect bridal attire for summer time is balance. Think breathable fabrics, lighter linings, and thoughtful detailing. Gowns with illusion backs, delicate beading, or floral appliqués are beautiful touches that suit both garden ceremonies and elegant indoor venues.
For brides planning a destination or outdoor wedding, we always recommend gowns that allow freedom of movement and pair well with light accessories, such as veils and hair vines that won’t weigh you down.
Summer Wedding Trends 2025: What’s In
The top summer wedding trends for 2025 focus on individuality, softness, and experience. Brides are favouring gowns that reflect their personal style rather than following tradition for tradition’s sake. Expect to see:
Subtle shimmer and sequins for a touch of glamour
Floral motifs in embroidery or lace
Convertible styles that let brides switch up their look between ceremony and reception
Sustainable fabric choices and thoughtful tailoring
With wedding fashion moving towards unique, heartfelt styling, your gown should feel truly you.
