At first, Eryka (above, left) tried on only white dresses for her wedding. \u201cI tried on every one out there,\u201d she said, \u201cand ran out of options. So, I opened myself up to color.\u201d She and her fianc\u00e9e Rachel ended up both wearing fuchsia on their big day. Here, three couples share their matching looks\u2026<\/p>\n

Eryka + Rachel<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"city<\/p>\n

Eryka<\/strong>: We were planning to get married in August 2026 in the lake town where Rachel grew up, but after the 2024 presidential election, we felt it was important to get our ducks in a row before the inauguration in January 2025. We had two months.
Rachel<\/strong>: Although nontraditional, a colorful wedding outfit felt natural to me. I knew I wanted to wear a suit, and I\u2019ve always liked a fluorescent palette. Because we were on a tight timeline, the question was, what options are available? I knew I\u2019d find things that fit well and feel good at J. Crew.<\/p>\n

\"city<\/p>\n

Eryka<\/strong>: When I decided to move away from white dresses, Instagram\u2019s algorithm fed me a pink Banana Republic dress, and it just clicked.<\/p>\n

\"city<\/p>\n

Rachel<\/strong>: At first, I worried that we might be too matchy-matchy. But Eryka had a vision, and she\u2019s pretty much always right about aesthetic choices.<\/p>\n

Eryka<\/strong>: Solange\u2019s wedding<\/a> had been burned in my brain since I saw the pictures back in 2014. I love how she and her husband both wore white and looked so slick and cohesive. Matching is something we wouldn\u2019t really do outside of this experience, so it made it feel special.<\/p>\n

Andrew + Dae<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"matching<\/p>\n

Andrew (left) and Dae during their first look.<\/em><\/p>\n

Andrew<\/strong>: From the start, we liked the idea of wearing similar outfits to emphasize us coming together in marriage. We found an amazing tailor in L.A. \u2014 Jerry at JB Clothiers<\/a>. He even custom-made our shirts and added details like our initials. I loved that we matched but had subtle differences in our looks and wore different shoes.<\/p>\n

\"matching<\/p>\n

Dae<\/strong>: We landed on white tuxes with black trim. We didn\u2019t want to look traditional but also didn\u2019t want to look too trendy, and the white tuxes felt like a perfect in-between. We also put our wedding party in black.<\/p>\n

\"matching<\/p>\n

Dae<\/strong>: I think so much of a heterosexual wedding is focused on the bride\u2019s look, but that just isn\u2019t us. We wanted to see each other shine, but also shine together as a unit. I hate when friends combine names like Bennifer, but it really became a DaeDrew moment.<\/p>\n

Katie + Mike<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"matching<\/p>\n

Katie<\/strong>: I had been married before and wore a traditional dress, but neither that marriage nor dress were as \u2018me\u2019 as I wanted to be this time.<\/p>\n

\"matching<\/p>\n

Mike<\/strong>: I was thinking about a sophisticated look involving florals \u2014 something blue, plus winter whites. This coat<\/a> turned out to be exactly what I was looking for.
Katie<\/strong>: Mike settled on that jacket, and I was still looking around at ideas when I found a matching corset<\/a>. That\u2019s what pulled it together.<\/p>\n

\"matching<\/p>\n

Mike<\/strong>: Matching brought home the feeling that the two of us are in it together.
Katie<\/strong>: And it brought a sense of gender equality to the occasion, which is really critical to us.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to all the gorgeous couples!<\/strong><\/p>\n

P.S. Would you wear a short wedding dress<\/a>, and how did you make your wedding feel true to you<\/a>? <\/p>\n
