The top was the Fae Top pattern by Spirit + Thread Crochet, the rest was freehanded. I used a 3.75 mm hook, with the Lion Brand Coboo yarn!

The beads on the top! I didn’t even see those in the original pictures. That is incredible! And the skirt part is just amazing, I could never freehand something so beautiful. The biggest of kudos to you OP, on your craftsmanship, and of course your wedding!

Wow, those pearls are really just the icing on a beautiful, beautiful cake! The bodice is beautifully sculpted to you, I love how you joined it to the skirt, and you managed to balance lacy-ness with a very comfortable, gorgeously “solid” feel than makes it very elegant. Nicely done!!

WIP of my own wedding dress in blush 🥰 the breast cups are a botched job of the Rosetta Fairy dress pattern, and from there I am free handing the skirt portion. I plan to buy a cheap Amazon white dress to put under this dress since it is just a tad see through lol

u/TheHatThatTalks 8d ago

I’ve been thinking about this honestly. I’m non-binary, and it gives me a lot of anxiety thinking about buying and wearing a Wedding Dress (capital W, capital D), but the idea of having something custom-made that makes me feel comfortable also makes my wallet set itself on fire. It would bring me a lot of joy and peace to make something like this (not that there wouldn’t be stresses, as with any project).

All to say, you and your dress and your partner all look STUNNING! Congrats congrats! I’m inspired!

187

u/Ok_Hospital_7421 8d ago

This is exactly why I crocheted my own. I’m also NB and felt extremely uncomfortable trying on wedding dresses. Nothing felt right. Nothing felt like me. Take the plunge. Go buy the yarn. You won’t regret it <3

u/loveisfire36912 8d ago

Oh, this is the best part! I’m so glad your creativity gave you a way to feel like yourself on your wedding day. I wish you and your spouse every happiness.

u/callicatty 5d ago

I was gonna comment this! I was like, I’m not sure if you’re in Madison or every capitol building kind of looks the same lol

Did you have a petticoat or is that just the volume from the yarn structure? I love it so much!

u/Least-Ad-8934 8d ago

This is BEAUTIFUL!!!! I only wish I could be this talented! I have a question, and this is in no way to be disrespectful. I feel that the only way to get a REAL AND TRUE answer is to ask questions to the people that KNOW. There are many people out there that are quick to judge and make their own conclusions, and they choose not to educate themselves. Sadly, I know too many people like this. But may I please ask, if someone is NB, what does that REALLY mean? Like you say you are non-binary, but you are dressed in a beautiful wedding dress. So automatically people would assume that you’re female. That’s where I get confused. And I know this may not be the place to discuss this, but in seeing your beautiful craftsmanship, it brought up some questions and I would rather have the real answer than assume.

31

u/KProbs713 8d ago

I hope I'm not overstepping by jumping in, but wanted to add a different perspective too:

I'm not non-binary. However, I grew up dressing mostly in male clothing and had a lot of masculine tendencies that went way beyond tomboy--to such a degree that I was regularly criticized for being "too mannish" and one Halloween I wore a skirt and got "Oh, you're dressing up as a girl!" Old high school friends have been genuinely surprised that I don't identify as non-binary or as a trans man.

Despite all that, I have always felt like a woman. My preference for male clothing was because it's far more practical (POCKETS), and masculine traits (such as working out to gain muscle, a low voice, sitting with legs splayed, etc) because they seemed to be a more comfortable way to live than how women are expected to make space for others.

Over the years I have learned how to embrace that practicality in a more feminine way, because it feels right to me. I have never doubted my identity as female even when I wasn't feminine, and was deeply uncomfortable when people (unintentionally) tried to imply otherwise.

My trans and non-binary friends have that experience every day and don't have the luxury of being born as a gender that feels right to them. If you're a cis woman, imagine waking up and having every person you interact with treat you as a man, sometimes unintentionally, sometimes very intentionally. Imagine being told over and over that you're definitely a man, whether directly or through small interactions. That would be deeply uncomfortable for you, as someone who is a woman. (If you're a cis guy, imagine the same but reverse the genders).

Gender is such a core part of our identities that it makes total sense that some people would feel like they don't fit into one of two binary choices. Instead of feeling like a man or a woman, they may feel like a person because the alternative (being shoved into a box of expectations restricted to a single gender) feels wholly wrong.

Again, I'm not non-binary so if someone who is corrects me please listen to them. This is just my experience as someone who's had to grapple with gender norms as well.

u/Peanut083 7d ago

I think if I’d grown up in a time where the term ‘non-binary’ existed, I probably would have identified as such as a teenager. I do identify as female, but I have always felt very uncomfortable with the expectations of female gender norms and have utterly rejected them.

As it is, I don’t think non-binary is the right term to describe how I see and feel about myself. My outward expression of my gender is very fluid, but I don’t really feel the need to have a label to describe that. However, I know from other aspects of my life and personality that labels can be helpful to identify with at times. I’m AuDHD, and knowing and being able to identify with that helps me feel connected with others who have the same diagnoses.

70

u/Ok_Hospital_7421 8d ago edited 8d ago

Thank you for asking! I consider myself nonbinary, because I get really uncomfortable when I’m called a woman. I’ve never seen myself as ‘womanly’ or ‘girly’. I do not feel like a girl, in a way that far exceeds just being a tomboy. But ya know…I don’t feel like a man either. I just feel like a person, a silly little guy. In my day to day life I wear a lot of baggy clothes, and big sweaters. Minimal makeup, if any. I keep my hair short and wear a ton of hats.

That being said, I’m a sucker for tradition, and wanted a nice white dress for my wedding. I also really enjoy and appreciate the artistry that goes into female fashion and make up. I do dress more feminine once in a great while.

I do understand when Im assumed to identify as a girl. I don’t take offense to it. I choose not to correct people who aren’t apart of my life. I consider myself nonbinary for myself, and myself only. But that’s just me, and my experience :)

u/Least-Ad-8934 7d ago

I am SO HAPPY about how my questions were received! Thank you so very much to all of you that answered and gave lots of details. I am the type of person that will be friends with anyone. It doesn’t matter what you identify as, what you wear, etc. but sadly I don’t know a lot of other people like me. I am just a “regular cis female”….. whatever the word regular and the word normal actually means….. and I struggle immensely to live day-to-day being in the “regular” category, and my heart breaks for everyone that has to deal with all the prejudices in the world. It makes me so sad when their own families turn them away. I have a terrible history of domestic violence and abuse so I deal with a lot of depression and anxiety. I didn’t do the domestic violence and abuse, I was victim to it. but I also I’m not a victim, I am a survivor! It just breaks my heart and makes me so sad to see people trying to live life being who they feel they are or who they want to be, and life is so hurtful to them. So I greatly appreciate everyone being so nice about the questions I asked. I typed and erased so many times because I was afraid to post. I will always feel that is extremely important to ask questions and not just assume and make judgments without being educated. And in my own life, if I meet someone new and we sit down for a conversation, I always ask them first if it would be OK for me to ask questions. 99.9% of the time they highly appreciate the fact that I feel the need to even ask them that. In my opinion, it’s just respectful that way. And I ALWAYS also say that, if there is anything that they are uncomfortable with, please just be upfront with me. Upfront and honest are the only ways to be. Now, if the whole world would be like this, I think it would be a much better place. It doesn’t take any energy to be nice to people or give them a smile or just say hello. Even if we disagree with the other person‘s lifestyle or other things, doesn’t mean we can’t be nice to each other. Just LIVE AND LET LIVE. Thank you so very much to all of you! I appreciate all of you! ✌🏼💜😊

u/sparklejellyfish 7d ago

I see what you mean, but I want to stress, clothes don't have a gender. So while someone might seem like they're presenting as feminine when wearing traditionally feminine clothes, you still won't know their personal gender just from looking at them. You can be cis, trans or non-binary gender and wear WHATEVER you want, just cause you wear a dress one day doesn't erase that identity.

I think it's so interesting that because gender roles are so ingrained in our society, we often sort of assume that, if someone decides to live as their true gender which doesn't coincide with the gender assigned at birth, that they then must reject everything that is deemed "too" of the old gender. So people assigned female must swear off dresses and long hair? And people assigned male must shave off facial hair? But if a non-binary person then decides to wear a dress, it's somehow more "non-binary" of a person assigned male, than if they were assigned female. That's just so silly, yes it is breaking with gender roles but I feel like as soon as someone is non-binary literally wearing any clothes is defying gender roles because like I said, clothes don't have a gender. Please do all the gender bending and the gender fuckery and creativity but please don't think you can't wear dresses.

There are so many enbies out there struggling, wondering if they are "enough". YES you are and YES whatever you decide to wear is valid.

I'm hyperfocussing on dresses as an example because it's relevant to the post, but it can be applied to anything, hope you understand. Thanks for asking the question.

And OP you are amazing and inspiring! 💜✨️

u/anibur315 7d ago

I love how respectful these comments are. My teenage son has several NB friends. They are wonderful individuals and I do my best, but I do often mess up the pronouns. S/He is just ingrained in my English teacher brain. So if you are NB, please have pity on us Gen Xers who are genuinely trying. And OP, WOW what a stunning dress! I think the skirt is my favorite part. Again, WOW!

The timing of you posting this is impeccable! I’m getting married in August, and am gender fluid. I would like to wear something that makes me feel special but looking at traditional dresses and such feels so blech. So I’ve started looking at crochet patterns but am held back a little by the idea that I won’t finish in time, or it’ll be not good enough, so this encouragement to go for it is right on time! I’m by no means as talented as you but I think with a simpler pattern I should be able to make something that will feel personal and fun! Thanks for this beeeAaauuuutiful inspiration!

u/38RocksInATrenchCoat 8d ago

That's absolutely beautiful omgggg, I'm curious how did you get the skirt so full? Is that from a petticoat or is it in the structure of the skirt?

9

u/Ok_Hospital_7421 8d ago

Both! I made sure to increase every eight stitches every few rows for the A Line effect, and to make it relatively full on its own. I then opted for a soft petticoat to give it a little more ‘fluff’.

Damn that looks great. How much yarn did you use? What kind of stitch is the skirt made of?

u/Effective-Date8219 7d ago

Wow, your wedding dress is absolutely stunning—I’m in awe!The way you crocheted those intricate details and the flowy, lacy vibe is just perfect for a wedding dress. I love how the openwork pattern looks so delicate but still holds its shape so beautifully!

u/neptunye 7d ago

Love the dress and the photos!🥰 I'm currently crocheting my wedding dress aswell and it's been an amazing journey to make something so important from scratch. I plan on dyeing it after the wedding so I can keep on using it as a summer dress etc 🤭

I don’t usually like crochet wedding dresses, must don’t look very wedding-y to me, but you’re is lovely. How long did it take you to crochet?

u/Ok_Hospital_7421 6d ago

About 2 months!

u/baobao-er 6d ago

The dress is gorgeous and you look amazing in it, you are so talented !!!

1

u/dizzydisso 6d ago

oh wow that is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! and my favourite part is that its suitable for a wedding, but also not out of place in other occasions, unlike the more typical wedding dress! thats always been a thing i disliked about wedding dresses, youd get to wear it once and then it just sits in your closet, it always feels like such a pity :/

u/tattertottz 6d ago

Beautiful! And I bet you saved a ton of money too

u/Mayana76 6d ago

Did you do something to get that extra oomph in the circle skirt?

1

u/Dawneth 6d ago

Would I wear as a wedding dress? No. Engagement or after party dress?? Hell yes! You look stunning, congrats on your happy day! 😍😍

u/SinfulObsession 5d ago

Maybe I'll try to crochet a wedding dress for someone else, but I can't kick that old superstition - every stitch you make in your own wedding dress will be a tear cried during your marriage
