winter wedding dress jackets

The glamorous, ornamental dress accessories that seem overboard for many traditional spring and summer weddings, such as fur, feathers, gloves and jackets – are perfect for the winter months. Previously, we cataloged some of our favorite winter wedding dresses. Now, we share a few of our favorite winter wedding dress jackets.

There are many reasons to why a bride might chose to wear a wedding dress with jacket. One of the main reasons is that the day of her wedding is chilly and therefore she will need a complementing jacket to go with her wedding  gown. Usually, jackets are designed to ward off the chill; it can cover the entire bodice of your wedding gown. Because of this, the jackets are more often than not embroidered of made to look sophisticated to make sure that it can be worn in and out of church.

If you’re planning a winter wedding you’ve probably already come across a common problem: how do you keep warm and look great without compromising on the dress of your dreams? Even those dresses that have sleeves are usually lacy or shear so warmth is just not likely.


There are a number of options that you can consider. One of my all time favorites is this adorable faux fur lined jacket from Forever Yours. It’s available from House of Brides for $210 and not only does it look hot but it will provide a lot more warmth then lacy sleeves and it looks good enough that you might not want to take it off when you get inside lol

If this isn’t the look you are going for, there are other options you can look at. Other popular options include shawls which you drape over your arms while you are outside, shrugs (mini jackets) and full capes for a more traditional winter bride look.
