Groom playfully bites at brides bouquet as she laughsLet’s get real about “bohemian wedding inspiration”: when I’m browsing through images online, and looking at wedding images in particular, I think, “Damn, I might be able to pull that off.” But the problem is it’s hard to find women that reflect what I look like in images across the web because I’m not the typical size, shape, or skin color presented in American media. Which means, if I’m trying to figure out if I can pull off say, the aforementioned boho look, I’m doing a LOT of extrapolating, and a nearly impossible amount of imagining.

Which brings us to the bohemian wedding bridal look. It’s all over Pinterest, and it’s super cute… but if you’re not an elven-looking blond lady (no offense to the elven among us), it can be a little tricky to figure out how it will look on your actual body. Good? Awful? Literally who knows.

It’s easy to get discouraged when you don’t see people who look like you that you can use as a reference point. How am I supposed to show a family member or friend who doesn’t get what the boho vibe is all about if there aren’t any bohemian wedding images that look like I could pull them off? Sure, I can always try and explain, but it isn’t always that easy. Which is a long way of saying that representation is everything.

So today we wanted to round up the boho bride look for every body. Can you wear the beautiful, flowy, backless dress even if you have big boobs? Yes, you can. (Okay, well, maybe if you can find a semi-backless look that allows for good bra support, but you know what I mean.) Can you wear that lush flower crown you’ve been dreaming of if you have short, curly hair instead of long flowing locks? Of course. In fact, it may look even radder than all of those flower crown images you’ve already seen everywhere.

You think you don’t fit the image of the typical bohemian bride? Think again. Anyone can make a bohemian wedding work for them. We’ve rounded up a slew of not-so-average boho brides who kick the bohemian wedding stereotypes to the curb and show you how they truly made it their own.
