    Tradition always points at white undergarments under the Bridal Gown, BUT Bra Fitters prefer to reccomend Nude bras and bustiers under the dress...What do todays Bees prefer?

    I think it depends on how sheer or fitted your dress is. Wear whatever doesn't show! Nude always won't show, so if you have a dress with less lining or one more fitted, go with that.

    White but that completely depends on the dress- I'm planning on keeping what I'm wearing on top for the wedding night sooo I'm sticking with white.

    Im wearing blue VS undies that have 'Bride' in rhinestones!!! My dress is really thick tho so i don't have to worry about it showing! If you dress is fitted or thinner I would suggest the commando underwear in nude! Those things are the best for avoiding the visible panty lines.

    I would probably go with nude because sometimes white bras show through white shirts.

    My dress is quite fitted and I don't want anything showing. To be on the safe side I bought nude everything - Spanx, Bustier Wink

    There is no way anything is showing through my dress, and FI/DH will have to help me out of the dress, so I figure I might as well wear the fun things in white under the dress. So white for me.

    I Love all your responses...it just shows how every Bride and Dress combo is completely unique! Especially like the idea of a pop of color under the dress...doable for most gowns with heavier linings and/or multiple layers. Thanks Bees!

    In terms of underwear, I don't think it matters unless your dress is at all sheer, in which case nude is definitely the way to go.

    For my longline bra though, I went with ivory that matches my gown. That way if anything shifts over the course of the night/dancing it will, at a quick glance, look like it's part of my dress. I don't know about you, but I'm really fair and "nude" bras are nowhere near my skin tone, so something nude sticking out would be way more conspicuous than something ivory that matches my gown.
