53 Sparkly Wedding Dresses for the Glamorous Bride

What the red carpet is for celebrities is what a wedding day is for any bride-to-be, so why not go all out and really shine on your big day? From super-glitzy gowns covered in sequins fit for the most glamorous of brides to more subdued glimmer for more traditional and minimalist brides, there are many ways to incorporate a bit of shimmer into your bridal look. If you prefer a more traditional gown when saying 'I do' but want to make an extra dazzling entrance at the reception or after-party, sparkly dresses also make a perfect post-ceremony look. Sequins and delicate beading also feel especially festive if you’re getting married around the holidays so consider sparkly dresses a top choice for a winter ceremony.

If you’re all about the opulence with your wedding dress but want to stick with a white or ivory palette, sequins and glittering paillettes in dramatic silhouettes and architectural shapes are the way to go while gowns in blush, gold, and silver dripping in all-over sequins are perfect for the bold, fashion-forward bride. If you're a vintage-loving bride, you can pile on the drama with cascading fringe beadings, flouncy tiers of chiffon with glittering beadwork, and classy pearl detailing. Sparkle isn't reserved for ultra-glam brides and modern minimalist brides can also incorporate sparkle by opting for simpler slip silhouettes or halter column sheaths with sparse beading and reflective embellishments.

From head-to-toe adornment for a scene-stealing wedding look to subtle sequined looks, here is our edit of 53 glitzy wedding gowns for a glamorous and dazzling bridal moment.
