It doesn’t matter what age you are when you tie the knot. Whether it took you a little while to find the man of your dreams or this is your second (or perhaps third!) time lucky at the altar, you deserve to look and feel amazing on your big day. There are really no special rules for wedding dresses for older brides, just look for dresses that are comfortable and make you feel amazing.

Feel comfortable and feel happy
You probably have a good idea of what suits you by now and, whether that’s a full-skirted ball gown wedding dress - à la Sex in the City’s Carrie Bradshaw - or a chic and sophisticated vintage number, the choice is yours. It’s your wedding day after all!

Shop for your shape rather than your age
Age is just a number; it’s your shape that matters. Our friendly team of bridal experts can recommend the perfect style to suit your figure and will be on hand to help you every step of the way. As they say; if you've got it flaunt it! A fishtail wedding dress will accentuate your curves in all the right places.

Focus on your best features
If you have fabulous legs, show them off! If you have a small waist or beautiful curves then choose a dress that accentuates the bits about yourself that you love the most.

Cover up if you like!
If you’re not so keen on your arms look for mature wedding dresses with sleeves or add one of our detachable straps. Alternatively, why not go off-the-shoulder and make a feature of your shoulders instead?

Complete your outfit with the right Amixi accessories
Don’t be afraid to add some stylish bridal accessories such as a demure jacket, elegant veil, some delicate hair pins or a sparkling tiara to give the perfect finishing touch to your wedding day look.
