20 years ago, the bridal gown was at the forefront of a Bride’s mind when it came to her wedding and associated outfits. Today, in the age of social media and maximalist bridal events, there is a new term trending – “Bridal Wardrobe”.
What is a bridal wardrobe?
A bridal wardrobe is all clothing, accessories, and jewelry, curated by the Bride-to-be to wear at their many bridal events – Engagement party, Bridal shower, Bachelorette party, Wedding Day, Post-wedding brunch, and the Honeymoon. For most people, collecting a bridal wardrobe is very expensive and overwhelming.
If you search “Bridal wardrobe” on social media, you’ll see thousands of videos of soon to be brides showing off everything from lingerie to white rehearsal dinner dresses. When deciding when to splurge and when to save on your bridal event wardrobe purchases, we suggest this rule of thumb:
Splurge when:
- You are going to hand it down to your future children, or you can see yourself wearing it in your wardrobe at least twice per month for the next 5 years.
- White or nude shoes, a neutral or white handbag, Jewelry, and a beautiful pair of sunglasses are examples of items worth splurging on
Save when:
- You are buying it for the photos and the bridal event alone, and it isn’t something you’ll wear again often or pass down to future generations.
- The getting ready outfit, rehearsal dinner dress, swimsuits for your honeymoon, and party dresses for your bachelorette party are not the best places to invest

We make a lot of great memories through the lenses of sunglasses, and it is our hope that when you put your Memoríes on, good memories come flooding back to you from the last time you wore them. We understand the importance of finding the perfect bridal sunglasses that not only complement your bridal wardrobe but also serve as a lasting reminder of this special and exciting chapter of life!
Why Bridal Sunglasses Are a Must-Have
- Versatility and Style: Unlike formal white dresses and other elements of a bridal wardrobe that may only be worn once, sunglasses can be effortlessly incorporated into your everyday attire long after the wedding day has passed. From brunch dates to beach vacations, these timeless accessories elevate any look with a touch of glamour.
- Memorable Keepsakes: Your wedding day is a momentous occasion filled with cherished memories that you'll want to hold onto forever. Investing in a pair of sunglasses to style with some of your bridal outfits not only enhances your ensemble but also serves as a meaningful keepsake of the celebrations. Every time you wear them, you'll be reminded of the love and joy shared on your special day.
- Practicality for Outdoor Events: Throughout the numerous bridal events leading up to your wedding, such as bachelorette parties and honeymoon getaways, countless photos will be taken outdoors. Sunglasses not only shield your eyes from the sun's glare but also offer a practical solution for those candid moments captured in the great outdoors. Say goodbye to squinting and blinking in photos – with stylish sunglasses, you can easily put your best face forward.
