26 Beautiful Wedding Dresses With Pockets

Why should you have to choose between fashion and function on your wedding day? When it comes to a wedding dress with pockets, you can have both. These days, more and more brands and designers are adding sewn-in pockets to their gorgeous gowns, which is a huge win for brides.

On your big day, you'll constantly be moving around, and convenience is key. So, a wedding dress with handy pockets means you won't have to worry about where you left your clutch. Think about it: Pockets will allow you to have your wedding day must-haves nearby, whether they're your vows and tissues or your phone and lipstick (just don't pack too much in there). When searching for the perfect dress with pockets, choose a style where the pockets are designed to be discrete and blend into the structure of the silhouette—that way, they won't take away from the style of your dress but add a practical element to it.
