Bridal look for a denim wedding
Any girl wants to shine on this significant day. If you can buy a denim-style wedding dress, do it.
If you are on a budget, then try making the outfit yourself. Our master class and photos for it will help you with this.
To make such a bride's outfit, you will need:
- jeans or ready-made things from it;
- white knitted fabric;
- white taffeta or matching tulle;
- light elements of decoration for the outfit;
- white lace;
- sewing tools.
Re-pattern the dress to fit your size. Or you can do it easier, take a denim sundress, rip off the straps from it and stitch along the neckline a strip of white sewing with flowers from jeans. Shorten the sundress to the desired length. A petticoat made of white knitted fabric is used as a lower skirt. From the scraps of this material, make a lush flounce, which must be sewn to the skirt as well. Thread the taffeta rectangle on top with a needle or sew on a typewriter, and then pull the thread.
With this gathered part, you need to sew an openwork hem to the back of the skirt.
Use the leftover jeans to make an elegant leg decoration. Stretch fabric is best suited for this. You can take old jeans from this linen and cut off the ankle section.
Open the seam and cut off the left and right side of the seam to insert strips of white tape with holes. You will stretch a lace through the hole and tie the jewelry on your leg. A denim wedding will make the bride feel free and at ease.
As you can see, for the next outfit, a corset made of jeans and a long skirt made of the same material are suitable, if you already have such an outfit, then it remains to buy white sewing. You will sew a part of it on the hem, and a small piece will decorate the place from the left chest to the right thigh. It remains to make a veil from a transparent material, and the image of the bride is ready.
See how beautiful a taffeta skirt looks. But for this one will need several meters of material. But you don't need to think long over the top of the outfit. If a girl's wardrobe has a denim jacket or a fitted shirt, they are perfect. A leather strap will show that the bride has a thin waist.
If you want even more originality, then you can make the basis for a skirt from a white canvas, which will be shortened in the front and long in the back. Then the flounces of the same length are cut out and sewn onto this skirt.
Trim your denim skirt so that it reaches mid-thigh. Sew the white outfit you just created to this base. As a top, you can use a fitted jeans corset and put on a jacket made of the same material.
In the next outfit, the bride will look fashionable and sexy.
To create it for a denim wedding, you need to reshape the corset with cups to the girl's size. All the elements of which it consists are cut out of jeans, cups from jeans are sewn on top, which are trimmed with white silk braid. Also, sleeves are cut out of translucent fabric along with shoulders and a fluffy skirt. A small bowler hat made of light satin will complete the enchanting look. Denim boots or white shoes are fine here.
Even unwanted jeans can be used for the next outfit. Their upper part is cut to the middle of the thigh. It is she who will be needed. Measure the taffeta to size and cut a wide strip to firmly grip it. Sew this part of the skirt to the jeans fragment you just cut.
The next dress from jeans is also easy to make with your own hands. The skirt consists of several gussets. The pattern of the top is quite simple, it is slightly fitted. The neckline can be straight or V-shaped. A semicircular one will also look good if white lacing is located at the bottom to the waist. If desired, sew on fluffy white guipure sleeves, as in the photo on the left. You can decorate the front of the dress with openwork white stickers, like the model in the center. These stickers are sold in dry goods stores. You can do it even easier, sew a white lace braid on top and along the hem of the dress, like on the bride, who is in the photo on the right.
For more mature women, the option is suitable when the dress is made in the form of a sundress with a half-open back. And if there is a sundress, then you will need to sew a bolero vest with sleeves, decorate the top of the dress with a white lace insert and put on boots of the same color.
You don't have to spend money on outfits to have an inexpensive wedding. Order T-shirts with the names of the bride and groom and have the young people wear them. Plain jeans will complement the outfit. To show that this is a bride, put on a veil and a transparent skirt with a wide belt made of the same material. This garment will be decorated with a fabric flower.
So we smoothly moved on to the image of the groom. But, unlike the bride, the young man does not have many options and he is unlikely to want to think about his clothes for a long time. If you have jeans, a vest and a white shirt in your wardrobe, then this is more than enough to dress for a wedding.
And if you want to come in ordinary trousers, then it will be enough to put on a denim vest. See how a couple in love looks harmonious in a simple dress.
You can buy a denim jacket, and a white shirt and dress pants will complete the look.
Girlfriends of the groom should dress alike, with blue jeans, white jackets and dark bow ties suitable for their looks. They can be made from leftover jeans. Let the girls wear a blue dress, and the bride wear white jeans.
See what other outfits you can think of for your bride and groom friends. Girls can wear the same denim jackets, with which burgundy, white skirts look good. If the lower part of the bridesmaids' outfits is burgundy, then let the bride have it white.
See what else you can sew and create with your own hands if you are having a wedding in jeans or dresses made from this material.

Among the napkins adorned with denim pockets, blue and white glasses look good. To seat all the guests, each must first be assigned a sequential number, and draw the same number with a felt-tip pen on a small cut of the tree. With the help of such an element, you can make small compositions by placing jars of flowers here, tying burlap and ribbons to these containers. Also place candles, seasoning kits here, decorate it all with moss. Place these decor items on tables with blue tablecloths.
The halls decorated in white colors look festive. But to make it clear that this is a denim wedding, let the chairs be with blue backs and seats, or make covers of that color.

Place flowers and fruits on the tables.
If there are not enough chairs for all guests, then set up benches with blue and blue pillows on them.
A cake decorated with mastic, to which blue food coloring has been previously added, will look great. Using a thin nozzle of a culinary syringe, you can make a semblance of a light line in jeans pockets from white mastic. Mastic flowers will also be appropriate for this cake.
Cookies are also decorated with sugar mastic in blue and white. Blue will make edible jeans.
The cakes are placed in blue corrugated paper napkins and tied with a rope. You can make the Potato cake by adding blue food coloring. Such sweets are rolled in the form of balls, and wooden skewers are placed on top so that such portioned dishes can be eaten. The blue sugar mastic cookie is a lot like a jeans pocket. Various cakes are decorated with this sweetness.
Entertainment for guests at a denim wedding
This event should be not only tasty, but also fun. So that guests do not get bored, you need to think over the cultural program of the day in advance.
Since jeans were invented in the West, various contests that are popular in those places will be appropriate.

You can arrange an archery competition and choose the most accurate one. A photo session with horses in the background will also add a Western style, especially if the groom is wearing a cowboy hat.
