The Best Non-Traditional Wedding Dresses On Instagram

The bold and the beautiful... - by Milly Haddrick
  • 31 Aug 2018

Celebrities generally enjoy to break the mould especially when it comes to fashion, and their choice of wedding dress is no different. With the world's leading designers at their fingertips and substantial bank accounts behind them, going against the grain isn't just about opting for a black dress on your wedding day. 

Princess style wedding gowns are great for those traditionalists out there but for those non-conventional brides-to-be, we have scrolled through our Instagram feeds to find you some non-traditional wedding dresses for your mood board.  

Our search for the best out-of-the-box bridal dresses on Instagram has uncovered everything from the daring, to the bohemian and all the way to the comfy and practical. From models such as Hanne Gaby Odiele, who looked every bit the fashion-forward model picked straight from the runway, to Emily Ratajkowski's brave yet incredible pant-suit, there is a source of inspiration for every unconventional bride.  

Here are our picks for the best non-traditional wedding dresses on Instagram:

Isabeli Fontana

Can't believe I kept my mouth shut for an entire week until we shared this. We waited because we wanted the opportunity to tell our story, in our own words-which we did-and I hope you take a moment of your day to read and open your mind to what different types of love can look like. Link to the article found in our bios. Thank you to @them for giving us a platform to tell it on. @victoriamatthews_ for her incredible photography skills. @andrewmorrisonstudio for creating these gender fluid looks. And @jkcarrington for ensuring the day ran as smooth as could be.

The queer, polyamorous couple wore beautiful designs by Andrew Morrison and crowns atop their heads for their wedding ceremony this year.
