What makes a wedding dress boho?
A boho wedding dress is defined by ease — soft, natural fabrics like lace, chiffon, and georgette; unstructured A-line, empire, or sheath silhouettes; and free-spirited details such as bell or flutter sleeves, open backs, and delicate lace over illusion. Where a ball gown makes a statement, a bohemian gown makes a mood: effortless, romantic, and unfussy.
Choosing a boho gown for your wedding
Boho suits the setting as much as the bride — it’s the natural choice for a beach, garden, vineyard, or backyard wedding, and for anyone who wants to feel like herself rather than styled into someone else. The relaxed cut is forgiving and easy to wear all day, which is exactly why it photographs so well outdoors. Not sure boho is your look? A senior bridal consultant will show you where it sits next to draped and ruched and the rest of our wedding dress trends.

Boho wedding dress FAQs
What makes a wedding dress boho?
A boho, or bohemian, wedding dress is built on soft fabrics and a relaxed silhouette — think lace, chiffon, and georgette in an A-line, empire, or sheath cut, often with sleeves, an open back, or illusion detail. The overall feeling is effortless and natural rather than structured or formal.
What kind of wedding is a boho dress best for?
Boho gowns suit outdoor and relaxed settings best — beach, garden, vineyard, and backyard weddings — where their easy movement and lighter fabrics feel at home. They’re also a favorite for brides who want comfort they can wear and dance in all day without losing the romance.
Can a boho wedding dress be altered to fit me?
Yes. Every gown is ordered in your best-fit size from the designer’s own size chart and then altered in-house, so a relaxed boho cut is still tailored to your body. Adjustments like a taken-in bodice, a hemmed skirt, or added sleeves are handled by our own seamstresses, not sent out.
