The latest wedding dress trend is calling all rock n' roll brides' names—custom embroidered wedding jackets are THE accessory for a wedding. If your style is anything but formal, it's time to consider draping an embroidered denim jacket over your wedding dress, or your bridal party. We've seen these jackets pop up all over some of the coolest weddings, and it's time to get in on this trend.

Just like a custom wedding dress, a custom wedding jacket takes time to design and execute so make sure to order your jacket well in advance of your wedding date.

Whether it's a cropped moto jacket emblazoned with your new moniker, or an oversized denim jacket (very Coachella bride) calling out your new marital status – this is one trend we are absolutely adoring.

Ahead, the best wedding jackets for every bridal style and budget.
