Why is a maternity wedding dress the perfect choice for a wedding with a baby bump?

A maternity wedding dress is the best decision if you want to get married while pregnant. We have been advising mums-to-be for over 15 years and have already made many of them happy with our maternity bridal wear, which we are very proud of. Many couples plan a wedding ceremony before their baby is born. Often the decision is made quite spontaneously and suddenly a lot of planning has to be done. Besides organising the wedding ceremony, choosing the perfect wedding dress is of course a top priority. After all, you want to feel completely comfortable on your big day!

Our maternity wedding dresses are perfectly tailored to your new curves and leave enough room for your belly to grow, unlike a traditional wedding dress. You can choose your dream dress from a wide range of cuts, colours and lengths. If you keep a few things in mind, you're sure to find what you're looking for.

"Many of our maternity wedding dresses are also suitable as nursing dresses".

If you've already had your baby and want to get married while nursing, we can recommend our nursing wedding dresses, which all have easy nursing access. Our models with a cache-coeur neckline, for example, can be combined wonderfully with a stole or a nursing poncho to discreetly breastfeed your baby. What's more, our dresses adapt to your figure, even without a baby bump. Like our short maternity wedding dress with lace top and pleats, where the flexible skirt part made of pleats perfectly adapts to your body, and also the sheath maternity wedding dress made of Ecovero, which is made of super soft and elastic fabric.

Your perfect maternity wedding dress

"Which maternity wedding dress suits me?"

There's no question that it's not easy to decide which maternity wedding dress is right for you, with so many different models to choose from. But after 15 years of expertise, we have the best tips for you on how to find your absolute dream dress. The best way to start is to gather some inspiration on our Pinterest boards. We regularly research the latest wedding trends and pin the most beautiful ideas and our matching wedding dresses. You can also discover the most beautiful wedding stories of our customers on our Mamarella blog.

Of course, it's also important what time of year you're getting married and whether you've planned a particular theme. For a romantic winter wedding you might choose a long maternity wedding dress and a cosy cashmere maternity bolero, while for a bohemian style summer wedding a short lace maternity wedding dress would certainly be a nice choice.

In addition to the location and the month of the wedding, you can also think about what your "chocolate sides" are and which areas you would like to conceal. Depending on your figure, different cuts of maternity dresses may be more suitable. In the following, we would like to give you a guide to help you make your decision.

>> Length

Firstly, you can think about what length you would prefer. Long maternity wedding dresses are very elegant, flowing and perfect for an extravagant wedding. Some pregnant brides feel more comfortable with a bit of fabric hugging their legs, especially if they are dealing with increased water retention. Floor-length styles are not just for taller women. If you are a smaller woman and have fallen in love with a long maternity wedding dress, we recommend that you make an appointment with a tailor in good time.

Our short maternity wedding dresses accentuate your baby bump and feature a swingy skirt. You should consider matching accessories such as maternity tights and shoes as they are not covered as with long dresses.

"Emphasise your best features and conceal problem areas".

>> Cut

The A-line cut is particularly popular and suits almost every figure type. A straight cut can also look very nice if you are more of a classic type. If you want to focus on your baby bump, we recommend maternity wedding dresses with empire lines and our figure-hugging festive maternity dresses. Choosing the perfect neckline and sleeves is also crucial. Fluttering sleeves and 3/4 length flatter your arms and a V-neckline emphasises your décolleté. By the way, a back neckline can also be a very special eye-catcher, for example with our A-line maternity backless wedding dress. But if you prefer something without a plunging neckline, we offer you elegant, purist options with the Ecovero maternity wedding dress with stand-up collar or the Ecovero shift maternity wedding dress.

We advise you to order special shapewear for pregnant women to go with all maternity wedding dresses. It shapes your new curves and gives you gentle support, especially in the tummy area.

>> Material and colour

Depending on your personal preferences and the occasion, you can wear maternity wedding dresses made of lace, chiffon, silk and satin. If your bust size is small and your waist size is not yet very big, you can choose materials that create more visual volume, such as shiny satin or opulent lace. When choosing a colour, you don't have to limit yourself to classic white. Depending on your skin tone and hair colour, pale pink, eggshell beige, nude or even blue will look great.

Maternity wedding dresses for a civil wedding


A maternity wedding dress for a civil wedding is, nowadays, just as important as a wedding dress for a church wedding. Often couples only get married in a civil ceremony, which of course doesn't mean that it can't be a wedding dress with lace in white or ivory. We have deliberately specialised in classic, elegant maternity wedding dresses that you can wear in the registry office and at a church wedding without any problems. For example, many of our customers choose a short maternity wedding dress for the registry office and later, when the baby is born, celebrate their church wedding in a long dress.

A dress for eloping

If you like classic elegance and don't want to get married in white, our festive maternity and nursing dresses in delicate rosé, powder shades or with floral prints are a great alternative for the registry office, as well as for a non-traditional wedding ceremony.

What's trendy right now?

"Bohemian chic"

A popular trend that combines ethnic style with a hippie look and lightness and is therefore best suited to an outdoor wedding. Our short lace wedding dresses are perfect for this playful look, which can be combined especially beautifully with meadow flowers, grasses and delicate roses. The maternity wedding dress with boho floral lace, for example, is perfect for a boho-style wedding. The floral lace in vintage look creates a great feminine look. A hair wreath made of loosely pinned flowers with straw or grass highlights any bohemian wedding dress.

"Vintage Wedding"

With this theme, you can go for more elaborate wedding dresses with floral lace. Our vintage style maternity wedding dresses are the perfect choice if you want a romantic wedding with all the bells and whistles. Combine them with wide satin sashes or our precious jewelled sashes and an eye-catching flower crown and/or a beautiful braided hairstyle. For a real vintage feel, try our backless lace maternity wedding dress with stand-up collar or our maternity wedding dress with a sweetheart neckline. Other classics include our long maternity wedding dresses in floral lace, perforated lace or our A-line dresses with lace details on the bustier or sleeves.

"Greenery Wedding"

A minimalist trend that goes beautifully with our classic maternity wedding dresses and shows them off to their best advantage. In our blog post you can read all about the Greenery Wedding and which models we recommend. This trend is also great for couples on short notice who don't have a lot of time to plan.

Plus Size maternity wedding dresses - our collection for larger sizes


A beautiful maternity wedding dress in plus size? Not a problem! Many of our dresses are also available in sizes 48 - 52 and are specially designed to meet the needs of mums-to-be with extra curves. Especially on curvy women, many wedding dresses look beautiful. With a clever cut, your feminine curves are beautifully accentuated and problem zones are well concealed. The flowing fabrics flatter your figure, discreetly emphasise your tummy and highlight your assets. Order two different sizes if you are unsure about the fit.

Bestsellers


There are wedding dresses that simply never go out of fashion. They are simply absolute classics that have stood the test of time and look wonderful on many pregnant brides. For this reason, we keep some of our bestselling wedding dresses in our range and only have small details altered now and then.

What can I combine with my dress?

In addition to the above-mentioned maternity tights for summer and winter, a maternity shaper can provide excellent support under your wedding dress. Without any disturbing seams, it shapes an even figure and gives your belly support at the same time. Our Light Support maternity shaper with soft waistband and reinforced inserts is a great solution for any season.

"Cardigans and boleros for a cosy look"

Especially with sleeveless maternity wedding dresses or dresses with short sleeves, a maternity bolero or cardigan is indispensable. In the warmer months, a bridal stole or sash is also sufficient, and can be an ideal covering for a church wedding. Absolutely popular and a true all-rounder is our short cashmere bolero, which looks great with all maternity wedding dresses.

"A maternity coat for the wedding and for later"

For the cooler months, we recommend our beautiful maternity coats. The coats can also be combined wonderfully with maternity and nursing dresses after the wedding. Our warm maternity cardigans, like this cashmere bridal bolero made from 100% soft cashmere wool, accentuate all maternity wedding dresses in a feminine and classic way and are the perfect accessories when you can't quite predict the weather. They can also be a great help in the summer evenings, especially if you're wearing a dress with short sleeves.

"Accentuate your maternity wedding dress with a sash or belt"

Some of our wedding dresses include a sash, which accentuates your empire line beautifully. But our other maternity wedding dresses can also be beautifully combined with a satin sash or sash with gemstones. A belt is also a subtle highlight for your wedding dress.

What maternity bra should I wear underneath?

Our maternity and nursing bras are available in a wide range of sizes and we highly recommend our skin-coloured nursing bras without annoying seams. If you are wearing a maternity wedding dress, your bust will be emphasised by the empire line. Our bras create a beautiful décolleté and support your breasts optimally throughout the day.

If you're on the guest list


If you are invited to a wedding as a guest or in the wedding party, you will also find a large selection of festive maternity and nursing dresses in our shop. You won't outshine the bride in these dresses, but you'll still look stunning in them.
