Find your bride tribe

For most brides, alternative or not, what they’re going to wear on their wedding day is one of the first things they think about when they get engaged. There are designers who will literally make you any dress you can dream up, and even the more traditional bridal brands are realizing that brides these days want a much more diverse range of colours, fabrics and flattering shapes. Which bride tribe do you belong to?

Perfect for laid-back babes who’d rather be running barefoot through their festival-inspired wedding than wearing fancy heels and an elaborate up-do! Dresses are floaty and comfortable, make-up is usually minimal and your hair can be as wild and free as you are!
