5 Hooded Wedding Dresses for An Alternative Bridal Look For Star Wars Day

May the 4th be with you… of course, it’s Star Wars Day and we wanted to pay homage to the late great Carrie Fisher with an array of super cool alternative bridal looks and hooded wedding dresses. Not all brides want a traditional look and a sure-fire way to break tradition is by sashaying down the aisle, hood up, game face on and fiercely you! We take a look at our favourite hooded wedding dresses but first here is Princess Leia with her iconic white hooded dress plus other awesome looks.

 

Elegant Sheer Hooded Dress

Looking for an elegant twist on the hooded gown? This beautiful ultra-modern gown with a vintage twist is by Spanish designer Otaduy and available at Rock the Frock. The hood is super light and makes a great alternative to a veil without taking too much away from the dress… perfect!

“Hoods can be tricky when it comes to wedding hair;  I’ve spoken with a few makeup & hair artists who are a bit averse to working with brides wearing one. Most aren’t, but it’s definitely worth a conversation before you get too far down the wedding hair planning road,” says Sara Millecam of Beautiful Brows and Lashes.
