What are you wearing over your dress (if anything)?

Sophia1913

So this weekend, my mom and I went shopping for accessories and I ended up ordering my shoes and a hair flower.  Then my Mom starts asking me what are you going to wear over your dress?  I had never even considered wearing anything over my dress.  So the consultant starts showing me these little bolero  jackets and none of which really impressed me.  Then she said if I didn't see anything, they could custom make one as well.  I never really considered April in Vegas all that cold in the evening but maybe it will be so I am wondering what other brides are wearing.  TIA

Didn't wear anything over mine, but it was June when we got married.  I wouldn't think it would be too cold at night in Vegas though.

I have thought about getting a bolero to out over my shoulders if it get cool.

I am wearing a blck bolero. I am getting married in January, but we will be indoors the entire time.

Are you getting married outside or having your reception outside?

I feel like my dress is heavy enough that I won't be cold if my arms are bare.

I am wearing a short strapless dress, so I have a burgundy fur stole to wear inside as needed and an ivory dress coat for when we "strut down the strip."

Oh yes...We WILL strut.

In my mental image of this "Puttin' on the Ritz" is playing in the background, lol.

I didn't wear anything over my dress, I also was shown a few options where I bought the dress, but none appealed to me. 

I bought a faux fur bolero to wear over the evening dress (I changed into that for the evening/night part of the wedding day) that worked well. I don't think I needed it, after all it was June, but I liked how it looked so I kept it on. Here's a picture

BAHAHAHHAH - I was thinking more Saturday Night Fever, but that works, too!

Thanks so much for the info ladies.  This was very helpful.  I'm not imaging it all that cold in April but I guess you never know.  We are getting married outside at MB (Valley of the Falls) and we are having a very small ceremony (15 people max) so we are planning on just going out to dinner afterwards as opposed to a formal reception.

I wore a jacket and our ceremony was at the end of September.  It was more of a self awareness thing and not a weather thing. It was lace and had some bling on it and I was never too hot or too cold.

This is the dress & jacket:
