Choose Bridal Lingerie

Mind your neckline. Not many gowns have a convenient neckline that works with a standard t-shirt bra. Find a bra specifically designed to work with your neckline.
Choose a strapless bra or bandeau if you have a strapless gown. A strapless bra offers minimal support, while a bandeau offers plenty of support but may flatten your chest some.
Look for a backless bra that hooks at the waist if you have a backless gown.
Try stick cups if you have a smaller chest. These cups adhere to your skin, offer basic support and coverage. They do lack the same sort of support an actual bra would provide, however, so they are not recommended for women who are heavily endowed.
Consider a convertible bra. If you buy your bridal bra before your gown, look for a convertible bra with adjustable straps. Basic convertible bras may convert into strapless bras or crisscross backs, but more advanced convertibles can be turned into halters, backless, t-shaped, and more.
Add volume. A good push-up bra can enhance your bust without looking too unnatural. Bras with cotton, gel, or water-filled pads can also create extra cleavage. Make sure whatever you choose looks and feels natural.
Slip into something sexier once the gown comes off. Ribbons, lace, and other seductive details may ruin your smooth silhouette during the ceremony. Save these details for when you and your new husband can enjoy each other privately.
Create sex appeal with lace. Lace can be a sultry feature to have for your wedding night. A bra with a few scallops of lace along the border creates a sweet appeal, but a full lace bra that allows your skin to show through looks more naughty than nice.
Stick with white or nude for the ceremony. Match the color of your bra to the color of your skin or the color of the dress. Otherwise, it may show through the fabric.
