Nothing says Regency era more than corsets, which is a beautiful element that fully accentuates the brides' bodies. Making their way down the aisle, corsets are the perfect addition that pays homage to the traditional wedding dress silhouette while also highlighting the bride's figure. Katharine Polk and Nadia Manjarrez are just two examples of how corset bodices continue to thrive each wedding season.
