  1. 1

    Draw a rough outline of thehead and body of the bride. Draw an oval-like shape for the head, and a simple line to determine the height of the bride. Use the head to make the correct proportions. For an adult, that means the entire body is 7-8 'heads' tall.[1]

    • If you are drawing bridesmaids or flower girls (and they are younger than the bride), their head should be proportionally bigger, with the body being 6 or 5 'heads' tall.
  2. 2

    Draw a rough outline of the arms, shoulders and bosom. Slightly below the head, draw a horizontal line parallel to the bottom of the face. Draw two lines at the angle you want the arms, and then connect the lines to make a triangle. Sketch a small online of the top of the dress, extending slightly below the arms. Draw a line halfway down the arms for the bust.

  3. 3

    Begin to draw the outlines of the dress. Draw three lines: one large curved one (A), and two straight ones (B & C). Line A should curve from the start of the feet, and dip down below them. Lines B and C should be straight and reach from where the outline of the dress would be.

  4. 4

    Draw the bride's arms and her bouquet. Erase the part of the triangle on the inside, and draw in the bodice of the bride. Draw a circle in the place the bouquet will be.

  5. 5

    Draw the neck of the bride. Take two curved lines and extend them from the shoulder to the base of the head. If drawing a bride donning a strapless gown, draw the top of the dress near the armpits. If not, simply draw the neckline of the dress slightly below the neck.

  6. 6

    Draw the full extent of the dress. Extend the outline of the skirt all the way to the bottom line. Erase the vertical line in the center, along with Lines B & C. Leave the circle where the bouquet will be. Fix up any lines up to this point.

  7. 7

    Draw the bouquet. Draw several roses or other flowers, and draw a ribbon tying them together. You can make the ribbon be tied up in abow, or knotted in the back. Your ribbons can be any length.

    Draw the veil. Different people have different types of veils, so this part is up to you. A long one generally has a rounded end, while shorter ones tend to end sharply. Start from the top of the head and curve down.

    Draw the lips with a good, sharpened pencil, grab your pencil crayons, and a useable black pen. Outline the pencil with the black pen, and color in with a colored pencil of your choice. Smudge some color into the cheeks for blush, use a black pencil crayon to give the eyes some eyeliner, then color the eyelids with a colored pencil of your choice for some eyeshadow.

  • Question

    Typically (at least in Western culture), bride's dresses are white. But you could make the dress any color you would like. In some places, black dresses are becoming more popular for weddings.
