Bridal Separates in Vancouver: A Modern Bride’s Guide
The bridal world is changing and for modern brides in Vancouver, there’s a fresh, intentional way to dress for the big day: bridal separates.
If you’re looking for a fashion-forward alternative to the traditional wedding gown, bridal separates might be exactly what you’ve been searching for. They offer versatility, comfort, and the chance to curate a look that’s uniquely yours. Whether you're getting married in the mountains, on the beach, at city hall, or in a downtown loft, bridal separates give you the freedom to match your look to your moment.
At TEMPÊTE, we specialize in bold, re-wearable bridal separates made right here in Vancouver. Here's what makes this style so powerful and why more brides are choosing separates than ever before.
A flexible, modern take on wedding fashion.
What Are Bridal Separates?
Bridal separates are wedding outfits made up of two or more individual pieces like a top and a skirt, or a blouse and trousers. Instead of a single gown, you can mix and match pieces to create a look that fits your vision, your body, and your wedding day vibe.
Bridal separates come in many forms:
Corset tops paired with gathered tulle or matte satin skirts
Mini tops with bubble skirts for the after-party
Statement pants with structured blazers for a city hall ceremony
Whether you’re going for timeless look, something edgy or a look that shifts from day to night, bridal separates give you the freedom to bring that vision to life.
It’s the most customizable way to express your personal style while still looking completely bridal.

Why Brides Love Them
Versatility: With bridal separates, you’re not locked into one look. You can change your top, switch skirts, or add a topper to shift the mood throughout your wedding events—from ceremony to reception to after-party.
Better Fit & Comfort: Separates give you more flexibility in sizing and tailoring. You can get the right fit on top and bottom without compromising either.
Re-wearability: One of the biggest draws? You can wear your pieces again. Our tops pair beautifully with trousers or denim after the big day. Our skirts can be reimagined for special occasions. It’s bridalwear that lives beyond the wedding.
Style Without Sacrifice: Want modern edge and romantic softness? Separates let you play with textures and silhouettes in a way traditional gowns rarely can.
Affordability: It’s often more affordable than purchasing a traditional wedding gown, which can start at $3,500 and go up from there. At TEMPÊTE, many full bridal looks—crafted from individual pieces—fall within the $1,500–$2,000 range, giving you high-end style and versatility at a more accessible price.
Locally made, modern bridalwear designed for how you actually want to feel.
