We’ll be honest, when we hear wedding dress designers+brands say that they offer gowns for every bride, we take it with a grain of salt. It’s very easy to say ‘oh, we’re inclusive, we’re super inclusive,’ but very seldom is that confession actually true. And it sucks, it really does. That’s why we get sooo excited when we discover dream dress brands that not only offer dresses in sizes 0-28, but have sales and stunning real-life wedding photography to back it all up. CocoMelody, you have us 😍 forever, because you’re not just about pretty dresses (that can be ordered in sizes 0-28) - no, you’re about the beautiful brides who just so happen to look incredible in your pretty dresses.
In case you forgot about CocoMelody, we thought we’d give you a refresher. They’re an international bridal brand providing high-quality wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, accessories, and occasion dresses at affordable prices! And when we say ‘affordable,’ we truly mean it; most of their dresses are under $1000.

They’ve be making wedding dreams come true for nearly two decades, and they’re diehard advocates of every bride deserving a gorgeous dress to wear on her big day - no matter how much her budget is, no matter what size she is.
“Nothing is more beautiful than a bride feeling confident and radiant, and nothing makes a bride feel more stunning than a perfectly-fitting wedding gown. No matter your body shape or type, your dream wedding dress awaits. Imagine gliding down the aisle in one of our flounced organza skirts with a sleek corset bodice that hugs you in all the right places. Or picture yourself in one of our romantic wedding gowns made of nice appliqué and tulle that will give you that extra something you’re looking for. Our CocoMelody Collection is the ultimate blend of glamour and elegance for our full-figured brides looking for the perfect fit.” ~ the designer minds at CocoMelody
And the cool thing about this brand is that while almost all of their dresses are available in a full size range 0-28 and can be customized to each bride, with her precise specifications, the designers know exactly what their curvy clientele is coveting and can ensure their confections don’t just meet expectations in these trend categories, but exceed them. From frame-balancing A-line and ball gown silhouettes to chic sleeved coverage, universally-flattering sweetheart necklines to hourglass waist-cinching corset designs, the only ‘plus’ we’re looking at here is an A+: the highest level of recognition for aisle style excellence.
You know that a brand is special when their hashtag #cocomelodybride has mad love on the Gram. And with 9K+ posts to scroll through, we seriously had trouble narrowing down the IRL nuptials.
