Velvet Weddings Are Everything, And Here Are 10 Ways Your Bridal Party Can Wear Velvet On Your Day
With summer coming to a close, we may or may not already be knee deep in research for Halloween costumes, pumpkin spice recipes, wool tartan blankets and modern fashion staples for autumn weddings. So the timing couldn’t have been more perfect when Revelry graced our inbox with a little preview of their brand new line pointing a spotlight on our favorite fall wedding trend at the moment: velvet!
This e-commerce boutique for bridal, bridesmaid and now groomsman fashion practically read my mind in the launch of these styles ’cause, I’ll be honest, finding a quality velvet maxi dress for a special occasion is not as easy a feat as you’d think! And if you’ve done the gruntwork yourself, you know what I’m talking about. All that to say, it’s (almost) fall y’all. So get in the spirit and be one of the first to glimpse this sneak peek of the velvet wedding fashion that was in high demand before it was even conceived!
This female-founded company recently made it on Inc. Magazine’s list of the 500 Fastest-Growing, Privately Held Companies, and for good reason! Revelry knows that the most beautiful and bold looks for your wedding start with a combination of rich fabrics, a plethora of color options, and unique styles that will complement every bridesbabe’s look. Known for their swoon-worthy separates, designer-quality garments, and budget-friendly cost, Revelry has tons of top and skirt options that offer major rewear value. And isn’t that always the cherry on top? In addition to their ever-famous fabrics and styles, though, they’ve officially upped the game with new designs, new separates, new accessories, AND a new fabric!
With the holiday season just a few months away, the timing could not have been more perfect for Revelry to unfurl these design staples that, let’s face it, we’ve all been begging for: velvet wedding styles and some extra special menswear accessories that will make matching oh-so-simple!
Whether you go with the front-cross Sydney top or the simple-yet-sophisticated strapless Mia top, both soft styles are made of the most luxurious velvet and can be paired with virtually any bottoms (plus, can easily be worn again and again after the big event). Consider pairing them with another new style from Revelry: The Harlow Velvet pants. Complementary to the other new, velvet styles, and much like the dazzling Jackie Sequin Pants, these comfortable bottoms are perfect for the footloose and fancy-free maids who need extra flexibility for dancing. Whether you couple them with a velvet top for a jumpsuit look or a sequin or chiffon top for the mix-and-match of your dreams, there’s no wrong way to rock them! And hey, if you still want something more traditional? The new, Hudson Velvet Skirt can assist in creating any look you’ve been longing for.
But we get it, not everyone is feeling the two piece vibe and that’s A-okay because Revelry has spell-bounding full gown styles for the most glamorous of bridesmaid babes. This season they’ve added five velvet bridesmaid dresses to their already vast assortment of ‘grammable gowns. And believe me, they’re all fire.
Perhaps your eyes are on the velvet Court, with its flirty off-the-shoulder sleeves and natural waist, or maybe you’ve been admiring the Reese, with its v-neck, flattering self-tie waist, and feminine ruffled sleeves. Both looks are the perfect additions to a party looking to go full glam for the occasion, so the good news is that even in the toughest of decisions here, you can’t go wrong!
And girl, if you are embracing that Sasha Fierce mood and only have eyes for sleek styles with a dash of sexy? The Naomi with its open, keyhole back or the Cleo, with its button and low open back will up the heat on any formal affair. I’d say my job is done here… but there is still more goodness to share!
Of course, one of our favorite new velvet styles by Revelry harks from tradition: the Convertible Micah! The company is well known for its convertible gowns that bridesmaids can wear a variety of ways (like the Kennedy Convertible in Chiffon or the Rosalie in Tulle), and we’re pretty darn smitten with this new addition to the mix! The Velvet Micah can be twisted and tied however your bridesmaids desire, so that each of your gals can have unique looks that remain cohesive with the overall style. Shortcuts like this are a sigh of relief because, believe me, it’s no easy task sourcing mismatched bridesmaid dresses from a plethora of boutiques with different fabrics, color hues and craftsmanship. So when you have a guarantee of cohesion at every stage like this, you take it, girlfriend!
While all of the new dresses and separates from one of the most beloved and recommended wedding fashion brands around is enough to spark any bride’s interest, one of the most helpful additions to the Revelry line has got to be the Ties and Bow Ties! Made from the same fabric as their designer-quality dresses, these groomsmen accessories take all of the guesswork out of creating a cohesive wedding party look. That’s right, you’ve got to think about who’s standing on the other side too! Whether you choose a classic, Chiffon Tie or Bow Tie, or spice it up with a Velvet Bow Tie, the guys are officially tied into the Revelry fun!
My friend, if you’re new to Revelry and the idea of an e-commerce boutique, we’ve gotchu covered. This strictly online dress retailer is headquartered in Austin, Texas and specializes in made-to-order garments that have been blowing up the Pinterest app for years now! It’s not just their trendsetting styles that have made us fall head-over-heels, however. Revelry has a “try before you buy” option to ensure you find the perfect style and fit for the big day. Their Sample Box system allows you to select the styles and sizes of your choice to try on in the comfort of your home! Translation: You can say “sayonara” to small fitting rooms and on-the-spot decisions!
Plus, with five different fabrics, 100+ colors, and styles that will fit everyone’s event, Revelry is always a good idea. In addition to their wide variety, the texture-forward bridesmaid line offers sizes 0-32, plus both tall and petite length options. Did I mention they never charge for extended sizes either? When it comes to making you look and feel your best on a day you’ll never forget, Revelry’s sensational styles are always the most spectacular choice!
