And, of course, don’t forget, when you do find that perfect beaded beauty you can take it home the very same day. No need to wait!

We’ve picked a few of our favourite wedding dresses with beading below, to inspire you and hopefully add a  little extra sparkle to your day - enjoy!

Just magical…

Our designers really worked their magic when they designed this amazing new dress for the Viva Bride Platinum Edition range. This stunning fishtail features a fully beaded bodice that sparkles from all angles above a dramatically flared skirt. It’s also lined in a soft champagne shade for a subtle hint of flattering colour.

Wedding dresses with beading and ribbons

At the back, there’s more exquisite beading, fastened by a lace-up ribbon for that perfect hour-glass shape. Take a closer look and you’ll discover the softly coloured champagne lining, peeking through the organza to add warmth to your skin tone.

Be my sweetheart

What can we say about the front? The sweetheart neckline is fabulous, feminine and girly while the fully beaded bodice is hard to beat. If you're looking for wedding dresses with beading there really is nothing else like it! (Read more about sweetheart neckline dresses here)

Ultimate glamour

The bodice isn’t the only thing about this dress that makes it a head-turner. The skirt is 'circle cut', which means it’s full and voluminous without being heavy. Wear with our hooped 190 underskirt for a little extra definition, more fabulous curves and a look that really is hard to beat!

Modern sophistication

If you love wedding dresses with beading then this sensational mermaid dress could be the one for you. Embellished with delicate pearls and intricate lace embroidery, this figure-flattering style is absolute perfection.

Beautiful beading

On the bodice, super soft tulle is under-layered with cobweb lace and finished off with embroidered appliqués and delicate beading, giving it a sexy, modern vintage feel.

Smart design

At the back the cleverly concealed zip is super comfortable and almost invisible, hidden behind the row of elegant covered buttons. Little details like the ruching above the train are also very flattering.

Layers, upon layers

Finally, the train is just breathtaking, spilling out behind you in layers of gorgeous lace. What more could you ask for from a wow-factor wedding dress? If you love this look make sure you also check out our fabulously embellished Wyatt and Galilea too!

 Catwalk chic

We’ve combined all of our favourite elements from the Viva Bride collection to create this stunning Platinum Edition fishtail. The fully beaded bodice sparkles from every angle and the detachable beads across the back are such a versatile idea. The perfect on-trend addition to any gown!

In close up

At the front, the illusion neckline offers secret support while looking oh-so-pretty and feminine. At the back, the covered zip, concealed with crystal buttons, will make you feel secure and beautiful. Look closer and you’ll see the intricate sparkling crystals and jewels running the full length of the bodice.

Wedding dresses with beading - shine like a star

The beautiful embroidery then flows down the layers of gathered tulle in the fantastic fishtail skirt. It’s a style that’s perfect for creating beautiful curves and a dramatic, high fashion look that will ensure you really are the star of the show.

Style secrets

Our 190 underskirt will help the skirt ‘pop’ out even more plus the beads at the back are detachable so you can wear it with or without, depending on your style. This glamorous gown definitely needs a few sparkling accessories, and a regal princess tiara is the perfect accompaniment.

Walking on air

You’ll practically float down the aisle in this super-soft, bohemian tulle gown from the Heidi Hudson range. This design's nature-inspired embroidery is complemented beautifully by a soft illusion neckline and plunging, low back.

Choices, choices

The low open back on this new slim A-line is a boho bride’s dream. The contemporary lace design is exceptionally pretty and it comes in two flattering colour options, so you’ll be spoilt for choice!

A boho beauty

Then there’s the pretty, feminine neckline and bodice featuring lightweight tulle embroidered with soft cotton lace and embellished with pearls and bead clusters. It creates a delicate and bohemian feel while giving soft coverage.

Light and lovely

This slim A-line skirt needs no underskirt as it’s a ‘circle cut', which is beautifully voluminous without any bulking at the waist. It’s a look that’s equally at home in a grand manor house setting as it is in a fairytale woodland ceremony. It’s also the perfect style if you’re planning to marry abroad, as it’s lightweight, cool and easy to travel with.
