The perfect ring

Your wedding look begins with your engagement ring. 

Are you newly engaged, worrying about starting the search for your dream dress? It is an overwhelming journey for some, whilst others will readily go to every boutique in sight to play dress ups. Despite the overwhelming decision ahead of them… which dress is the one?

A great place to start the shopping process is to take a closer look at that shiny stone on your left hand. You may have no idea where to start in terms of cut or design, but you already have the ultimate symbol of your style on your finger. Your engagement ring was either designed by or for you, with your personality and image in mind.

maximalist vs minimalist


The first question you must ask yourself when you start your dress-finding journey; is based on your ring, are you a minimalist or a maximalist? A minimalist solitaire or a three-stone gives classic. Less is more for you when it comes to your dream dress. A cluster ring or diamond shoulders and halo screams bling, making you a maximalist. More is more! There are countless bridal boutiques throughout Melbourne, but Maison Oui is your number-one go-to. We have something for the minimalist and the maximalist bride, designed with timelessness in mind.

Trying to achieve the ultimate “Clean Bride” or “Old money” aesthetic? Why not choose one of our Oui The Label gowns, perfect for a minimalist bride. Try a few different dress shapes because for you, it is all about the cut, just like your ring; understated yet classic.

Oui The Label has modern wedding dresses such as the Marigold and Aeon perfect for that “Clean bridal look”. Our Aeon dress has a sheer corset detail, making it a sexier look for those modern city weddings. Whilst the Marigold dress has a clean crisp feel, a modern classic.

If you’re looking for a dress that has more of an “Old money” aesthetic, why not look at our Soulmate gown, with its off-shoulder straps, sweetheart neckline, a corset and full skirt. Match this with a string of pearls to achieve that luxurious feel, perfect for a destination wedding on the French Riviera.

Desiring more of a full princess gown, intricate florals, or a fully embellished look. We would definitely recommend you trying on a few different styles in our Cherie by Oui label, the ultimate maximalist chic range.
