You’ve booked the bridal suite; just don’t forget the bridal suit. Before jetting off for an Amalfi Coast honeymoon or setting sail for a sunny bachelorette trip, there’s one key piece you may be overlooking in your scramble to finalize a wedding trousseau: the bridal swimsuit.

Yes, the wedding dress usually claims the spotlight (along with most of your pre-ceremony energy and anxiety) but amassing a collection of bridal outfits for all festivities before, during, and after the ceremony is also important—and dare we say, more fun? Perhaps you need the perfect bachelorette bikini for your girls’ trip to Miami or maybe you’re after something sleek and simple that can be worn long after the honeymoon holiday ends. Also on the packing list? A cover-up, of course. From crocheted caftans and lace-trimmed minis to sweet matching sets and sexy sarongs, something chic that you can throw over your swimsuit to take you from poolside lounging to romantic sunset dining is an essential.

Ahead, a range of bridal swimsuits and cover-up styles to match any seaside itinerary.

One-Piece Wonders

The one-piece swimsuit is an undeniably elegant addition to any vacation wardrobe. For bright white versions, the good news is that you have lots of options: From square-neck maillots by Matteau and Eres to Simkhai’s balconette style and super clean cutouts from Alaia and Tory Burch, you’ll find there’s a lot of variety in this summery staple.

Bridal Bikinis

We love the freedom of mixing and matching a two-piece swim look. Go for glam in a vintage-inspired set by Norma Kamali or a balconette top and high-waisted bottom by Solid & Striped; or, keep it cheeky in string bikinis from Anemos and Jade Swim. The possibilities are endless; but since a white bikini is something you’ll get use out of way past the honeymoon, we recommend choosing a silhouette you know you’ll love.

Top It All Off

Who says a bride can only have one white dress? Cabana lounging is made more stylish when you style it out with a cover-up (plus, this makes the pool-to-happy hour transition seamless). Crocheted pieces from the likes of Posse, J.Crew, and Diotima offer a peek at the swimsuit beneath, while lace-trimmed mini dresses, slinky sarongs, and matching short sets are perfect for showing off freshly tanned legs.
