Getting Ready Photos: What to Wear and How to Plan the Perfect Morning
Quick answer: For getting-ready photos, matching personalized robes or pajamas are the go-to choice — they're cohesive, photogenic, and practical. Choose a color that complements your wedding palette, and opt for satin for a luxurious look or jersey for a relaxed, comfortable feel.
The getting-ready photos tell the story of your wedding morning — laughter, nerves, love, and champagne. These are often among the most treasured photos from the entire day, and the outfits you and your bridesmaids wear make a significant difference.
Here's how to plan the perfect getting-ready look.
Option 1: Matching Personalized Robes
Personalized satin robes are the top choice for getting-ready photos. They're elegant, cohesive, and universally flattering. The best part: your name or role is right there on the robe, making every photo instantly meaningful.

Tips:
- Choose a color that either matches your wedding palette or complements it (blush, champagne, ivory, dusty blue)
- Order the same style for everyone — or designate a different robe for the bride (white or ivory vs. blush for bridesmaids)
- Pair with matching slippers or a simple hair updo for a polished look
Option 2: Personalized Pajama Sets
For a more relaxed, candid aesthetic, personalized pajama sets are perfect. They capture the real joy of the morning without the formality — and they make for incredible documentary-style photos.

How to Coordinate the Look
- Choose your palette first — everything should flow from your wedding colors
- Order all robes together — buy from the same supplier to ensure color and size consistency
- Add accessories thoughtfully — a matching hair wrap or slippers can elevate the look without extra cost
- Plan the shot list with your photographer — tell them you have personalized robes and want a group shot, close-ups of the embroidery, and candid moments
Timing
Allow at least 2–3 hours for getting-ready photos. Hair and makeup take time, and you want enough light (morning window light is beautiful) before the ceremony.
Order your robes at least 2–3 weeks in advance to allow for personalization and shipping. TANIRI ships personalized robes in 3–5 business days — one of the fastest turnarounds in the category.
