The Best Night Before The Wedding Outfits In 2025 If You’re Planning A Weekend Of Celebrations

If your idea of an ideal night before the wedding outfit is the perfect white sundress that will have plenty of milage in your wardrobe post 'I do', head to Asceno. Its Heather cotton maxi has a quietly elegant silhouette featuring an ankle-length hemline and slender straps. I would pair it with 'naked' sandals for evening festivities and simple flip-flops for everyday.

Rixo's bridal line is selling fast, with styles that would be appropriate for night before the wedding outfits proving very popular. Luckily, several are being restocked in mid-July. Liberty's soft ruffles and jacquard fabrication means it's a winner in my books.

Self-Portrait is one of the most reliable contemporary brands when it comes to night before the wedding dresses under £500. My pick of a very pretty bunch is this bow-sleeved minidress that will look sensational in pictures.

Rat & Boa has brilliant party dresses, which means it's almost a one-stop-shop for night before the wedding outfits that will be memorable for all the right reasons. If you're looking for something comfortable but show-stopping, I don't think you could do much better than this voluminous strapless gown with its gathered corsage detail at the lower hip.

For a beach-appropriate night before the wedding dress, you couldn't do better than a dress beaded with seashells and starfish, could do? Tinged from pearl white to pink, it will photograph beautifully - and look gorgeous with bare feet if you're next to the sea.

If you want to strike a contrast with your big day dress with something a little slinkier, look no further than Reformation. Its Ronda Silk Dress has an asymmetric cowl-neckline and delicate straps that mean it's the definition of simple yet effective.

The beauty of this elegant strapless midi is that it can be dressed up or down, depending on what you have planned the night before the wedding. For cocktails at dusk somewhere warm, I would style it with shoulder-grazing earrings and heeled flip-flops.

The bubble hem is trending yet again this summer so why not take it for a spin the night before your wedding? Let its thigh-high skirt steal the limelight by pairing with understated sandals or even trainers.

I always rate the occasionwear offering at Reiss, which this season has among its number this very chic high-necked minidress.

St Agni is one of my favourites - and Meghan Markle's! - for its elegant take on occasionwear that isn't remotely fussy. For a sharp night before the wedding dress that won't upstage the big day's, why not opt for this ruched bandeau with its romantic bow-tied reverse?

Rise & Fall's ramie dress is the definition of easy-breezy if you're celebrating by the beach. I love the fact that its fabric is made from a renewable and biodegradable plant fibre, as well as the fact that you could wear this on holiday for many years to come while remembering your special weekend.

This Whistles dress is a chic yet super comfortable option for your night before the wedding outfit. Made of 100% cotton, it's also perfect if your abroad wedding is happening during a heatwave.

Square necklines and drop waists have been trending for summer 2025 - and this dress handily checks both off while looking classic. I'd wear it with ankle-tie espadrilles and straw accessories.

You don't have to wear something white the night before your wedding (or even on your actual wedding day). COS's sage green jumpsuit is a subtle way to introduce some colour without veering into jewel-toned territory.

Gap's square-necked jumpsuit would look chic yet relaxed for a poolside cocktail hour or pub night pre-wedding. It obviously depends on the venue as to the styling but the versatility of this particular outfit means that you could pair it with sandals, sneakers, flats, heels, the sky's the limit.

Lauren's one-shouldered jumpsuit is elegance personified, especially if you ensure its hemline only just brushes the floor with a pair of platform sandals.

I love the reverse of this wedding jumpsuit, where the straps come together in a giant bow tie at the back that you can either knot or leave to drape (both options are chic).

A co-ord is a great idea if you're looking to wear your night before the wedding outfit after the blessed event because of its versatility. This Xu Zhi ensemble, which is now on sale at 50% off, is perfect for striking a romantic note as you prepare to walk down the aisle.

White skirts are trending at the moment - and this one will dress up anything you pair it with.

I don't think you could find a chicer two-piece than POSSE's. With its waisted vest, that you can cinch to your liking with an adjustable belt, and subtle ruffle skirt, it's simple yet striking.

Pair this column skirt with baby tees or bandeau tops after the big day.

For a hot-weather wedding, I don't think you couldn't do better than a slip top and wide-legged trousers, both of which you can add to your everyday wardrobe post-wedding.

Is it just me or does everyone seem to be wearing linen trousers at the moment? Nobody's Child has this wide-legged pair that majors in ease and will make light work of all your summer tops this hot-weather season.

I'd love to wear this smocked bandeau top and side-slit skirt to a poolside night before the wedding party with ankle-tie gladiator sandals.

This beachy skirt can double as a holiday cover-up as well as your night before the wedding outfit.

A sharp white suit is always a good idea for a night before the wedding outfit. AllSaints' two-piece, which could actually be a three-piece with the addition of the blazer, has a particularly chic silhouette.

AllSaints's lightweight suit trousers can easily join your summer office looks rotation once you're back from your honeymoon.
