Off-the-Shoulder wedding gowns are a beautiful and feminine way to show off the delicate shape of your shoulders without going completely strapless. There’s an amount of elegance that this feature holds within a design that other necklines just don’t have.
From ball gowns to fit-and-flare silhouettes, these draping sleeves are perfectly poised for a walk down the aisle and a spin on the dance floor.
Here are 10 of our favorite off-the-shoulder wedding dresses.
Pronovias, Cloe

We have gushed about the Cloe gown before and it had to make the top of our list for an off-the-shoulder beauty. The basque waist, the draping sleeves, and the sparkle on this Pronovias gown may be subtle, but it certainly doesn’t lack drama when paired with its plunging neckline. It’s a ball gown with a lot of extra sass and sex appeal.
The off-the shoulder neckline only adds to the drama and the flowing skirt is perfection for the dance floor. Pronovias knows how to make brides happy and is one of the most popular of brands when it comes to wedding shopping.
This is a stunning choice for weddings with grandiose venues and those that hold photography at the focus of the event since it photographs so beautifully.
Sottero & Midgley, Bronson

A sexy fairy is all we can think about when taking a look at the Bronson gown from Sottero & Midgley.
There’s a bohemian quality to the gown that is freeing and effortless – but the detailing truly steps it into more formal territory.
The curve-hugging silhouette is so complimentary to accentuating one’s curves.
And those off-the-shoulder long sleeves make sure just the right amount of added drama to the overall design.
It’s the perfect combination of elegance and sensuality which is why we love the Bronson gown. You’ll want to be sure to take a look at this one!
Casablanca, Phoebe

This Casablanca dress is sweet and stunning with an off-the-shoulder sleeve and detailed bodice. Phoebe features beaded lace and an A-line silhouette that is so flattering on all body types.
It’s a versatile gown for styles and brides, but it doesn’t slack in its wow-worthiness. The sweetheart neckline is bridal fashion at its finest and the tulle bow in the back is feminine and youthful.
This gown would look incredible at nearly all venues – both indoor and outdoor, as well as alongside a variety of beautiful wedding day colors.

The gorgeous, lace off-the-shoulder sleeves are such a magical touch to the Mila dress. Its Chantilly lace is such a touchable and romantic route to go when creating a dress.
We love the overlay and the contrasting neutral tones within the design. It creates such an interesting look and is beautiful in photographs as well.
Notice the corset detailing and how beautifully this would pair with a matching lace veil.
