Behold, our list of the most fashionable women to ever walk down the aisle, earning bridal style icon status along the way.

Jacqueline Bouvier

The Camelot Bride

Considered to be the closest thing we've ever had to American royalty, this former First Lady was a shoo-in for our best-dressed list. In 1953, she married John F. Kennedy in a silk taffeta gown by designer Ann Lowe. Needless to say, she looked exquisite and graceful.

Priscilla Beaulieu

The Queen Bride

Clearly, it was all about the veil for this Vegas bride. In 1967, she married Elvis Presley at the Aladdin Hotel in a stunning pearl-trimmed number that she designed herself. We applaud her for choosing a more demure, non-formfitting silhouette.

Audrey Hepburn

The Gamine Bride

And the bride wore Givenchy! Audrey married Italian psychiatrist Andrea Dotti in Switzerland in 1969. We love that she opted for pale pink instead of white. The chicly mod wool dress and matching headscarf made for an ideal second-wedding ensemble.

Bianca Pérez-Mora Macias

The Rocker Bride

Decked out in a YSL "Le Smoking," Bianca cemented her place in history as one of the most unconventional—but absolutely stunning—brides of all time. While her marriage to Mick Jagger (the ceremony took place in Saint-Tropez in 1971) was short-lived, the memory of this sexy skirt suit lives on.

Marilyn Monroe

The City Hall Bride

Marilyn married New York Yankee star Joe DiMaggio at San Francisco City Hall in January of 1954, and we have to say, her fur-collared brown wool suit couldn't have been more appropriate. It's slightly dressed down but secretly luxe—a real style home run (wah wah) if you ask us.

Grace Kelly

The Princess Bride

For her wedding to Prince Rainier of Monaco in 1956, the bride wore a pearl-studded gown by Helen Rose. With its intricate silk, rose-point lace, tulle and seed pearls, the dress seems almost too delicate to actually wear—even by princess standards!

Kathleen Silva

The Disco Bride

In 1974, Sly Stone married Kathleen Silva at Madison Square Garden in front of 23,000 guests—surely one of the biggest ceremonies in history. Perhaps that's why her wedding dress (which matched Sly's suit, or should we say, jumpsuit?) had more of a disco feel than your average big-day getup.

Gwen Stefani

The Modern Bride

She's just a girl—a girl that was lucky enough to walk down the aisle in this stunning silk faille, dip-dye number by John Galliano! At her 2002 wedding to Gavin Rossdale, she toned down the punk and didn't hold back on the feminine gorgeousness—we're in awe of that floral lace veil.

Elizabeth Taylor

The Bombshell Bride

Her choice of gown—a very generous gift from MGM Studios—was equal parts elegant and sexy, as you might expect. Her marriage to Conrad Hilton Jr. (yes, there's a relation to those Hiltons) in 1950 may have been the first of many, but this is arguably the best look.

Yoko Ono

The Beatle Bride

She may march to the beat of her own drum—or in this case, sitar—but tennis shoes and knee socks were an unusual choice even for Yoko! Her take on matrimonial wear matched the anti-conformist sentiments at the time: From the oversize shades down to the floppy hat, this look was surely rebellious.
