Getting Ready Outfits - Need to Have or Nice to Have?

Nice to have

Nice to have

Nice to have. I personally don't really even care about getting ready pictures. If my timeline seems too squished, these will be high on the list to get cut

Nice to have. I do have matching robes for my girls to wear, but it's not a necessity

Nice to have, and no need to match. Let everyone wear what they want and what they are comfortable getting ready in. We're getting ready in different places and I'll change to my dress at our ceremony site.

Nice to have. I still need to figure out what I'm wearing to get ready. Mainly just a button down so my hair won't get messed up.

Nice to have! It just worked out that I found a great deal on good quality robes for my girls, and I think they always look fantastic in pics!!

Nice to have. I saved the money by not getting that stuff and was able to pay for all my bridesmaids' dresses, jewelry, shoes, hair, makeup, and hair trinkets.

My 2 girls and I will have getting ready outfits, but definitely nice to have not a need

Nice to have. I love the getting ready outfit pictures, though!

Nice to have if you are taking getting ready photos.

Unpopular opinion, but need to have - I paid way too much for my photographer for people to not be put together while getting ready.

Nice to have. My bridal party is just me and my 12 year old daughter so I can't wait to see how cute our pics come out! We got matching robes that say Bride and Maid of Honor. She will be so thrilled

Need to have! We will have photo and video all day from getting ready to end of the reception. It was really important to me that my mom and girls all look cohesive and not wearing ratty sweatpants to get ready.

Nice to have. we do have matching robes but it was less for getting ready outfits and more just a fun cute present for them to have

Nice to have. We skipped this and used the hotel bathrobes when getting ready.

Nice to have. I want my bridal party to dress in whatever they're comfortable in

Nice to have. Your girls can get ready in anything, but I think it makes for fun pictures when you all match!

Definitely not need to have. I feel like nice is even a stretch for me— they’re not something I care at all about.

we had beautiful getting ready pictures with everyone in whatever getting ready outfit they chose on their own, and they look wonderful and my photos are phenomenal, and to me are very real genuine candids that capture our excitement (no focus on outfits or poses, more focus on expressions) — they are everything I could’ve dreamed of and more.

Nice to have. I definitely bought matching robe for my bridesmaids though! I think it will be nice to have pictures of us all getting ready with us wearing something common. I made sure they were nice enough and don’t scream wedding so that they can use them afterwards too!
