What do you think? Would you wear a cardigan with your wedding dress? Which of these do you like best?
P.S. Did you cry at your wedding?

Don’t. cardigans are a time-stamped trend, but your photos last forever.

I wore a yellow cardigan for my outdoor reception in April. It was so me. It’s just my style. I loved it :) Had to take it off once dancing happened though!
Absolutely a do. They all look gorgeous!
Do or don’t? I did.

The 4th couple down with the scarf and two-toned wedding dress– I sent the picture to my best friend telling her that is what I wanted my wedding dress to look like next year, but I had no idea where to get something like that. She texted back and told me that she knows that couple because she went to college with them! Now I can ask her directly where she got it. Thanks for posting it so I could make that connection!!
I never go sleeveless so have knit a matching cropped cardi to wear with my strapless dress & plan to wear it for both ceremony and reception next November. To dress it up I’m beading the trim to match the belt and neckline details of the dress so it looks more like an ensemble and less like an afterthought.
So glad this is now a trend–not that I wouldn’t have done it anyway!
Aw, that’s so lovely ^_^ .
We traveled by boat from our wedding to our reception so I wore a cardigan over my dress for that part of the day.
It was a necessity more than a conscious choice although I’ve always loved the contrast between formal/evening dresses and cardigans. (And it ended up being a breezy day so I was pleased to have it.)
This post has made me wish a little that I had chosen a cardigan that could play more of a starring role in my bridal outfit.
Thanks for sharing Joanna x
I did a cardi for my wedding! A very delicate, light teal wool cardi on top of my me-made ivory silk dupioni dress. It was cold (late October) and the ceremony was outside so I had to wear a sweater. And you know I think it looks really cute, cozy and natural… less fussy! I love all the ones pictured here!
And I TOTALLY cried when saying my vows. I couldn’t help it. I just felt everything I was saying, the vows I had written especially for my husband, and it made me weepy with joy.
DO! I love the idea of pairing unexpected pieces together. The first and second photos are my absolute favorite!!!
I dream of having a fall wedding and would totally rock a cardigan to ward off the chill!! The first photo is my favorite. It is the kind of lovely that makes my heart ache a little bit, in a good way.
I did not cry at my first wedding, and I think that’s because I knew it wasn’t right … but I know I’ll cry when I marry Matt!!

I wore a yellow cardigan with a jewelled Marchesa dress for my wedding this year….it was a really lovely soft thin cashmere one, and kept me warm in the evening when we were outdoors in the desert. I loved the contrast of the yellow and soft knit with the voluminous big silk skirt… it kind of looked like a 2 piece!

There are no dos and don’ts for weddings, as long as it’s good for the two of you.
I love it! But I prefer more non-traditional looks to begin with! I think I prefer the one with the umbrella, but also the light blue cardigan suits that bride so well!
I think it could work if done right! I like the women with the umbrella! I think that one looks best

Such beautiful brides!
I didn´t have a cardigan when I got married on a very cold September day in 2008…so I think wearing a cardigan with your wedding dress is a great idea and it looks gorgeous.

Gorgeous post! I love the mint green one in the fields. I’ve been having a wedding fever lately…A good number of my friends have been getting married one after the other this year. They all look gorgeous in their wedding dress that I can’t help but day-dream about my own. I always wanted a beach wedding, but after seeing this post, I’m thinking a fall wedding over a blanket of maples leaves would be just as beautiful. Thank you, Joanna.
Oh my goodness I’m in love! I’m getting married in early March of 2014, so this would be so pretty in either wintery weather or the fresh air of spring!
I love this idea so much I had to sneak some of these pictures for my own wedding blog. :)

Ah that first couple are my good friends!! How exciting to see their photo on your blog, all the way from Canada! They got married at a small ceremony on one of the gulf islands in BC. Beautiful! That photo melts my heart, every time.
Lovely photos! The wedding dress is simple yet beautiful. I love the 5th and 7th pictures dress.
The wrap cardigan shown above was inspiration to me (I can’t remember where I saw it posted originally) and I bought a fuzzy, cashmere number from BHLDN that I adore. My wedding isn’t until December 30, which is a shame because I know I’ll wish I could add my beautiful cardigan to my Christmas party outfit rotation!

The bride wedding dress is very beautiful, I like it very much, you visit my website http://www.alicheap.com, there are many photos in it
Oooh so very pretty!
My hubby and I got married mid-winter on a farm in a valley, we had a gorgeous sunny day and it only got colder later that afternoon, I wore a knitted wrap over my wedding dress for when it got cold and it worked so beautifully with the rustic setting and casual tea party out in the mountains.
I’m in love with the first one: so romantic and naif! I’d like to marry during a sunny hot day but, if i’ll change my mind, i’d love to dress in that way!

Thanks for the inspiration! I’m getting married in January and was wondering if I should wear a cardigan that I’m knitting. It’s the first cardigan I’ve ever made, and though it’s not done yet I’m quite satisfied with the result. There’s also another story to this cardigan since I began knitting it just about the time when I got pregnant. Now I just have to find a dress that goes with it (and fits my growing belly) …
last cardi is divine
I would totally have worn a cardigan! I wish I’d thought of it! We got married in a Kentucky October two years ago, and the weather was a perfect fall day – didn’t need the cardigan…

i love cardigans..even over a wedding dress… who wants to be cold? and I cried at my first (which didn’t last) and not at my second (which is still going strong)..
but here in hawaii no brides ever have cardigans. http://www.wendylaurel.com
Love the bride with the red cardi, with cute shoes too!
We got married on December 20th. Perfect time of year- everyone is in such a celebratory mood!
Never really thought of a cardigan over a wedding dress.. but it’s cute!
And I feel like I would totally cry at my wedding. I recently went to a wedding as a plus one where I didn’t know anyone there, and I still cried. haha
I am planning on wearing a cardigan for my wedding because I am not particularly fond of them and would not feel my most beautiful with one on :}
I’d would totally rock a cardigan over a wedding dress, super chic!
I would wear one if I had to! I had a winter wedding in 2010 – Jan 2, although in Houston and we don’t really get a real winter. The weather was really nice! Our ceremony was outside. Not cold enough for a cardigan though.

I think it’s cute for an outdoor reception. It makes the night more cozy & intimate. I like the one with the red. Vintage & cute.

I had a Fall wedding and bought a sweet little cardigan on Etsy, but the weather was so unseasonably warm that I didn’t end up wearing it until late at night. We were married in a vineyard and spent the night there in a vintage camping trailer, so we partied around the bonfire all night long! It was the most fun Ive ever had!
I love the first picture. That would easily be me.
And these completely changed my idea of a fall/winter wedding! I would totally do it!
If you find a classy cardigan to wear that accents the dress, go for it.
We live in Wisconsin, where spring weather is notoriously unpredictable. When I heard our wedding day weather forecast, I immediately ran to J Crew and found a beautiful navy blue merino cardigan that I wore over my knee-length ivory sheath, so I wouldn’t freeze and be miserable all day long. We had outdoor photos, and I was so glad to have it to slip into, and it looked cute when I wore it in some of the shots. A wedding “do”, for sure!
I like the middle few pics with a bit of frill, While I love a chunky cardigan, a wedding feels like the one time that a bit of glamour is in order.. though I stand by that it’s the bride and groom’s day, so if they want to wear snuggies, by all means.
And yes, some tears were shed on my wedding day..
I did! I loved my cream cardigan.
Love these pictures and the idea of a cardigan. So cozy and pretty. Favorite is the bride under the umbrella. I was married on a cool fall day and had to put on my husband’s jacket outside. Wish I had thought of the cardi…
