Wedding Lingerie for The Brides Big Day.

The Wedding Day for most brides is one of the most important days of her life and it's understandable that she wants to look picture perfect for her friends & family, as well as the wedding photographs that'll be looked upon in years to come. With the perfect wedding gown you need the perfect bridal underwear to go beneath. It's important to think of your wedding day lingerie as the foundation that's going to give you support, keep you comfortable & of course bring you beautiful shape to show off your gorgeous gown. So what are the options?

Bridal Corsets

Many brides opt for a wedding corset when it comes to their bridal underwear for the wedding day. Corsets are great for providing support and have wonderful waist cinching properties to pull you in at the waist to give your outline more definition. This helps bring about that shapely hourglass silhouette to your figure. It is important that you wear the right size of corset, so it's definitely worth getting some sizing advice before you buy, it's not like popping down the high street and getting another bra for everyday wear!

Find out more on our Low Back Bridal Corsets

There are lots and lots of different bridal corsets that are available, and many are designed specifically to be worn beneath the wedding gown, so off the shoulder dresses will call for a strapless wedding corset and some modern gown need a low back wedding corset. It's important the your bridal lingerie stays well hidden out of view, we think of it being the unsung hero of your big day, it does so much for you, and only a few people actually see it. Get it right when you're shopping for your underwear and the results are amazing, the last thing you need on your day is an underwire digging in your side, or having to keep pulling your underwear back in place!

 Wedding Basques & Bridal Bustiers

Some styles of wedding gown aren't really well suited for a bridal corset, either because of the boning or even the outline isn't compatible. A wedding basque or bridal bustier is another great option that can bring some great support to the bust, especially for larger busted brides. They tend to have less boning in them and don't tend to pull you in as much or indeed as far down your body as a corset will.


See the 'Isabella' Bridal Basque in more detail.

 
As with corsets a basque can be a good strapless bridal underwear option and as you can see from the Isabella wedding basque above, it has well defined cups with underwiring for support, and tends to be a very popular plus size bridal lingerie solution.

Get 'Maximum Cleavage' - The Padded Push Up Wedding Bustier
A wedding bustier will tend to stop above the hips and sometimes well above, but are good for giving support for the breasts. The padded push up bustier shown above is a real favourite with our brides who are looking to accentuate their cleavage a little bit more on the big day.

Wedding Bras



See the delicate details of the 'Rokoko' Balconette Wedding Bra

 
As you can imagine their are a host of bridal bras out there, and again, many of them designed to be worn beneath the wedding gown on the wedding day. Remember that your wedding day is one of those special days in your life, so take some time and think about what you want from yor wedding bra. Does it need to be a strapless bra, have low profile cups to stay beneath the dress line, or have a deep plunge? Will you need a balconette bra, a push up bra, a full cup bra for the support for large cup sizes? Have a little think about the amount and depth of lace and embroidery detailing on your wedding day lingerie, if your have a dress with thin satin or silk type material then you don't want any fancy detailing to show through!


Add some Swarovski sparkle with 'The Madonna' Bridal Bra 

One final piece of advice that we always try and leave our brides to be with; is not to leave buying your bridal underwear until the very last minute! Make sure you have your lingerie sorted a couple of weeks before your final dress fitting, this allows you plenty of time to deal with any sizing issues etc.

If you have any question about your bridal lingerie then please get in touch with us here at Moonrise at Midnight Lingerie by e-mail enquiries@moonriselingerie.co.uk you can even send us a picture of your wedding dress and we'll even help you find your perfect bridal underwear for your big day. It's what we do, so why not let us help you?

Men’s guide to lingerie this Valentines Day.

  
Valentines Day can be very daunting for some men… especially when it comes to choosing valentines gift for the loved one.
 
So I have put together this short blog post to help answer some of your questions and also to give you some possible gift ideas.
 
I think the first question you need to ask yourself is…
 
What does you partner usually like to wear on a romantic evening? Is it a sexy bra set?
 
lace tie bra set copy
 
 
Or perhaps a stunning babydoll?
 
Jadore Babydoll
 
 
Even an eye catching and very romantic chemise

or does she simply love to wear  just a sexy thong?
 
willow copy
 
 
Now that you have established what they like to wear you can't go wrong… Simply ask yourself a few more questions and you will be on the right track.
 
What is her favourite colour?
Women like to look and dress sexy all the time and not just on Valentines day! so it is worth taking a quick peek in her lingerie drawer when she is out to get an idea of her preferred choice of colours. Many valentines lingerie items come in a range of colours not just red so you will be spoilt for choice but most can be worn again on other occasions too.
 
 
What materials does she like to wear?
Ladies like to feel comfortable in their lingerie, so put plenty of thought into what would make them feel in the romantic mood… this could gain you some extra brownie points too! Think along the lines of silky or satin materials, feeling luxurious is always a winner.
 
 
Finally… and most importantly is the size!!! 
Never try to guess your partners size! If you get this wrong and choose too small she will be disappointed and have nothing to wear and if you choose too big… well your on your own on that one.
Have a peek in her lingerie drawer and take a note of some of the sizes she wears daily. Make sure you take note of both the bra size and brief or thong size if you are looking at a bra set for her. If you are looking to surprise her with a babydoll or chemise then look at her dress or top sizes as this is what they are usually measures in ie: UK12.
 
 
I am sure that whatever you choose she will love as long as it shows that you have put some thought into it and not just picked up the first thing you saw.
 
 
Moonrise Lingerie have wide collection of Valentines Lingerie and are always happy to help you. If you have any questions or you need any assistance with sizes, you can contact an experienced member of staff on 01501 470734 or if you would prefer to email, you can do so at enquiries@moonriselingerie.co.uk

Lingerie Gifts for your Loved One

Lingerie Gifts for your Loved One

 
It still remains that when it comes to buying Christmas Gifts, sexy lingerie is still a really popular choice when being bought by your boyfriend, fiancé or husband. Shop window displays fill with satin nighties, pyjamas, cami sets & so on.
 
 
 
All of these are great lingerie gift ideas, mainly because sizing is a bit easier, getting the incorrect size is still one of the biggest mistakes made by other halves when buying sexy underwear.
 
Not only does it mean you have to go to the trouble of exchanging your new underwear for the right size, but if he's gone & bought a bigger size, then he's in trouble as well!!!
 

 
 
 
When it comes to Christmas lingerie ideas, we always like to suggest a nice satin chemise, or cami set. They are easier to get the right size. first time round, usually involving a small, medium, large or extra large rather than getting terribly muddles with the cup sizes when choosing a sexy bra set. A lace babydoll is a great choice to add a bit of sauciness, our Lisa Babydoll has lace and frills and is very festive in a fiery red option.
 
 
 
Of course is you're smart you can always drop subtle hints around the festive period, send the odd picture to your other half along with your size, after all, some guys just need to be told. On the plus side, if you have given them a bunch of options you're sure to get something that you think is sexy & romantic, because lets face it ladies, when it comes to sexy lingerie options between partners can be poles apart.
 
 
 
 
Our Elegant Rhinestone Corset is an absolutely beautiful choice for lingerie lovers out there, it has  a beautiful Venice lace detail on front that is embellished with sparkling rhinestones along with princess line boning which offers stunning shape to your waist. It also comes with removable/adjustable garters and a matching thong to complete your sexy look.
 
A well fitted & correctly worn sexy corset is one of the luxuries when it comes to ladies lingerie. They give great support for the breast especially in plus size lingerie size, & the boning helps to wonderfully  define the outline of the figure to help bring about an iconic hourglass shape.
 
 

 

 
Finally, one of our little favourites this year, which is a great idea for a stocking filler is the tickle me thong with a playful little feather attached. Like I said some people just need to be told!
 
 
 
 
Moonrise at Midnight would like to wish you a
 Merry Christmas.

Eye Dream Photography

How and why you began your photography?
My father and grandfather were photographers and I have grown up with experience of both ends of the camera. Some of my earliest memories are of my father locking himself away in the dark room with the smell of the chemicals emanating from the room and then excitedly showing me his finished images.
Photography really peaked my interest when digital photography started to appear as I loved the fact you could instantly see the image as soon as it was taken. Initially I took it up as a hobby, but found the whole aspect of the creative side captivating and wanted to learn more and more, not only about the equipment I was buying but also about the technical side, particularly lighting as it affects a picture dramatically and is the difference between a good and bad shot.
 I set up my business Eye DreamPhotography nearly 7 years ago and started off doing people portraits and landscapes. I then did some training with an established wedding photographer who approached me as he’d seen some of my work and wanted me to ‘second-shoot’ for him and I loved it. I really enjoyed trying to get more creative images of the bride and groom and create something that was a little different. After 2 years I had the skills and confidence to go it alone with the weddings and haven’t looked back. It’s a fantastic feeling being such an integral part of someone’s special day and capturing memories and emotions they'll remember forever.

How would you define your style?
I have a varied style and can create classical images as well as very contemporary and creative ones. I like to be able to look at a scene and a couple and adapt to what the situation calls for. If the couple is quite quirky and wants something different that’s great, it allows me to let my imagination run wild! Even when all you have to work with is a brick wall next to a main road.

What do you find most challenging as a photographer?
Trying to fit everything in. I do all of my photography myself as well as the editing side, so balancing that with marketing and family life can be a challenge but I love what I do and wouldn’t change it. My 2 year old son is already showing an interest in photography so hopefully he will join me when he’s older and we can share the workload!
 
 
http://www.eyedreamphotography.co.uk/
 
What would be your best piece of advice to the bride and groom on the big day?
Relax! The build up to a wedding can be very stressful and there is a lot of pressure to have everything perfect on the day. If you have picked your suppliers well then it’s their job to make everything perfect and the bride and groom should be able to relax and enjoy their wedding day. I like to offer my couples the opportunity to have a pre-wedding shoot so we can get to know each other and this lets them see how I work and helps them understand how I give gentle direction to create the images I take on their wedding day. The last thing anybody wants is to be ordered around on their wedding day. I’ve found that by giving suggestions rather than orders, creates better images because they look more natural and relaxed.

Whose work has influenced you most?
Jerry Ghionis is a favourite. His control of lighting and the use of locations is phenomenal. Other big influences are Yervant who has the ability to create powerful images with very little kit; Dave Nunn has a very classic style and his images are very elegant; and Iain Gomes, who is excellent with his use of light and creates some very dramatic contemporary images.

Sexy Lingerie and Stylish Photography = Boudoir

Sexy Lingerie and Stylish Photography = Boudoir

Boudior photoshoots are becoming increasingly popular, especially nearing Christmas and Valentine's Day following soon after, they make for great gift ideas. The images themselves can be the present or the boudoir photoshoot can be a present for someone special, the whole boudoir experience can be a real treat.



Depending on the look you're after, with all different props, sets, lighting styles and choices of sexy lingerie you can achieve whatever style you want from burlesque, to Classy or sexy vintage. There's also a huge variety of boudoir photographers now offering different packages including hair & make-up, with a glass of bubbly, free image and you can even spoil yourself & choose from a selection of new lingerie for the shoot to accommodate a few outfit changes.


When it comes to choosing your underwear for a boudoir session, the world is your oyster, but for this post, I thought we'd  just look at a few corsets. If you're looking to accentuate your curves and create a sculpted hourglass shape to your figure then a well chosen sexy corset will do all of this and more,  the boning in a corset is excellent for pulling your figure in at the waist & having the effect of reducing it by anything from 2"-4".
A lace or satin corset with ruffled edges is also great at invoking the idea of suggestion, and being slightly revealing while maintaining a classic elegant look of sophistication.



Not all women's corsets are firm boned, as not everyone is looking for a maximising waist clinching effect, or indeed are looking for something a little more revealing, and a soft lace corset is ideal. A lot of or sets come with removable suspenders allowing for the addition of a pair of lace top black stockings or hold ups o finish the look.
