Does bridal activewear have to be white?

Definitely not! While wearing all-white will let everyone know who the bride in the group is, you can wear whatever color or print makes you feel the most confident and excited to tackle your sweat sesh.

When is the best time to wear my bridal activewear sets?

Bridal activewear sets are especially fun to wear during events leading up to the wedding–such as a morning pilates class before boozy brunch at your bachelorette , a wedding morning run around the venue, or any group fitness classes you go to between wedding planning errands. If you're an active couple, pack your activewear sets for your honeymoon to show off your new marital status while hiking or exploring around town.

16 Ultra-Stylish Activewear Sets for Brides in 2023

Wherever you're at in your fitness journey–an avid runner, an intermediate yogi, a pilates newbie, a sometimes cycler, or a sculpting fanatic–finding cute workout sets for all of your pre-wedding workouts makes every sweat sesh more fun.

Of course, you'll want to consider current activewear trends when shopping for new workout sets. Seamless cuts and ribbed designs are majorly in-demand, while high-rise leggings and biker shorts are the "It" silhouettes. Earthy tones like sand, rust, and olive green can barely stay in stock and appeal to those with minimal or subdued tastes. On the flip side, vibrant colors, leopard print, and foil fabrics with a metallic sheen are totally on-trend for bolder aesthetics.

Whatever your personal style preferences may be, looking for styles that make you feel both comfortable and confident is essential to every great activewear set. From one-shoulder sports bras to adorable tennis skirts to coordinating crop tops and leggings, brides-to-be have the perfect opportunity to play with different styles and fits.

To help you find a set you love, we've researched the best options available with these features in mind. For a classic white bridal look, we love the Fabletics Mila Midi Sports Bra and Leggings and the Alala Barre Bra and Leggings. Love a bold print? Go for the Athleta Warrior Longline Printed Bra and Leggings.

Read on for the best activewear sets for every bridal style, body type, and budget.

What to Look for in Bridal Activewear

Comfort and Mobility

Just like with any activewear, comfort is key when finding a workout set for all of your pre-wedding workouts. Choose styles by first considering the types of workouts you do. Are you an avid yogi or do you love low-impact workouts like walking or barre? Then you can opt for lightweight styles with minimal coverage and support. Are you a lover of all things HIIT? Go for strong stretch-fit materials and maximum coverage sports bras (perhaps with sufficient padding) that will stand up to your toughest workouts.

Style and Color

Look good, feel good! Hitting the gym or a fitness class in an outfit you love is always a great boost of confidence and motivation–especially when you're in a stylish bridal-worthy set. White and shades of off-white are always a good call for bridal workout sets, especially if you're going on a hike or doing a morning yoga class at your bachelorette party. However, you're the bride so you make the rules! Bright colors and patterns like pink, tie-dye, blue, and camo print are always a fun and festive way to go for celebratory occasions.
