Whether you’re a Disney enthusiast or just looking for a princess-esque wedding dress, choosing a gown inspired by one of the Disney princesses is an imaginative and unique way to set your look apart. We know the life of a Disney princess is less than realistic in today’s world, but there's no harm in channeling the aesthetic of your favorite character and feeling like the Belle of your ball. After all, your wedding day should feel like a fairytale, so a magical ballgown is definitely in order.

Shopping for a Disney princess dress may pose a bit of a challenge since you’ll have to determine what you think encapsulates the look of the character you're trying to emulate. What you may see as the perfect match to Cinderella’s ballgown, may not read the same to somebody else. But that’s not a bad thing, as trying to copy a gown too closely may look more like a costume than a wedding dress. Plus, it’s much more fun explaining what inspired your ensemble, and it's an opportunity to show off some creativity.

With that in mind, we looked to a few iconic Disney princesses for wedding dress inspiration. Here are a few gowns that best emulate the heart of what it means to look magical on the big day.

If you’re pulling inspiration from Aurora, the silhouette is key which is why we recommend this princess-style ballgown from Pronovias. What truly makes this dress stand out, though, is the cathedral-length train that will trail behind you as you walk down the aisle.

What to Consider When Shopping for a Disney-Inspired Wedding Dress

When shopping for a Disney-inspired wedding dress, the most important thing is to steer clear of any costume-y designs. The key is to take inspiration from elements of a Disney princess, not to copy it exactly. For example, if you love Snow White and want to replicate her dress, opt for a gown with puff sleeves. Snow White’s style is minimalistic, so you’ll want to stay away from embellishments and long trains. On the other hand, if you are looking for a Cinderella-inspired look, you’ll want a princess-style ballgown that sparkles. Your best bet is to look at what makes each dress unique and pull from that.

Choosing a Disney princess dress is also a great opportunity to pull a bit of color into your bridal look. Soft tones like Belle’s pale yellow gown or Tiana’s chartreuse green dress may inspire your search if you’re looking for an unconventional wedding dress.
