For the groom costume, my son is gonna wear the suit we bought for my brother wedding (at least he will use it a second time!). For my daughter I made an easy and no-sew bride costume with tulle.
- 7 yards of white tulle fabric
- 1″ wide elastic band for the head band
- 2″ wide wide elastic for the skirt belt
- fake flowers or paper to make some
- scissors
- needle and thread
and to complete the costume
- white leggings
- white shirt
- white and black body paint
You can make the bride skirt the same was as the veil. Just take a 2″ wide rubber band, cut it at the waist dimension and sew the ends together. You will need 5 yards of tulle to complete the skirt. Cut the tulle on 3 inches strips, and attach them with a loop around the elastic. If you ever have , it’s the same process. You can have a look at for more explanations.
To complete the costume, your girl will need a white legging and a white shirt. For the make up, I first painted her face in white with a sponge. Then I use a paint brush and draw two circles around her eyes, and fill them with black. I paint some dots and “flower petals” around them. I draw a upside down heart on her nose. I finished by drawing a big line for the mouth and add some small vertical lines to make the teeth. And tadaaaaam!!!
