Brides / Amelia Manley
You've counted down the days, minutes, and seconds, and now the moment has finally arrived: It's the morning of your wedding! There's no better way to start the big day than getting ready with your crew in the bridal suite. That also means sipping champagne and snapping plenty of getting-ready photos—in matching outfits, of course.
While we love a pretty getting-ready robe, it's also nice to find something a little more unique. To help you find the perfect wedding morning ensemble for your squad, we've researched the best getting-ready outfits that aren't robes. We evaluated each on size range, materials, price point, colors, and personalization options. From adorable rompers to cozy pajama sets and oversized shirts, we've curated a collection of outfits to suit any wedding party and aesthetic.

What to Look for in a Getting Ready Outfit
- Size Inclusivity: From pajama sets to rompers and jumpsuits, there are plenty of options out there when it comes to bridal party getting-ready outfits that aren’t robes. When picking out the perfect matching outfit for your wedding party, it's important to opt for styles that not only reflect your aesthetic but are size-inclusive for all your friends. After all, you'll want your crew to feel comfortable and confident while lounging in the bridal suite and taking pre-wedding photos.
- Personalization: Looking to create a special keepsake for your bridal party? Consider customizing the getting-ready outfits to include their initials or nicknames. And if you're looking for more affordable options, go with vendors that offer bulk orders, as buying in bulk is usually more cost-effective.
