Pageant queens are usually easy to spot. They’re beautiful, elegant, and of course, stylish! Titleholders have so much experience when it comes to fashion, but especially when it comes to everything evening gowns! The evening gown competition is one of the most beloved portions of a pageant, as it gives the judges a chance to see each contestant’s confidence, poise, and personal style. Since pageant queens have so much experience picking out beautiful dresses, it’s no surprise that they make the most beautiful brides. If you’re looking for the perfect bridal inspiration for your big day, look no further than these beauty queens!

Audra Mari

Audra Mari is the most recent pageant queen to tie the knot and her wedding was one for the books! Her vintage-themed wedding to actor Josh Duhamel perfectly balanced out old Hollywood glamour and the rustic vibes of her home state, North Dakota. Audra’s wedding gown was everything that someone marrying an A-lister could ask for- glamorous and elegant with a touch of princess vibes. This comes as absolutely no surprise since Audra has so much experience picking out the perfect dress. After all, she was the first woman to place as first runner-up at both Miss USA and Miss Teen USA.

Betty Maxwell

Betty Maxwell easily has one of the most iconic weddings of any beauty queen. It all started on “Say Yes to the Dress,” when Betty chose her stunning strapless sweetheart wedding gown in front of millions of Americans. It’s almost like she was being crowned Miss America 2016 all over again! Betty’s beautiful wedding dress was just one small detail of her picture-perfect wedding day, which was picturesque in every way.

Savvy Shields Wolfe

The most spunky queens make the most elegant brides! Savvy Shields Wolfe showcased how a true pageant queen can do both. As Miss America, Savvy was known for her bright smile, fun personality, and sweet attitude. As a bride, Savvy brought all the elegant vibes!

Olivia Jordan

Olivia Jordan is known for wearing one of the most iconic evening gowns of any Miss USA winner (we’re still not over her perfect < a href="https://queenly.com/blog/barbiecore-fashion-trend">Barbie vibes) so we knew her wedding gown would be one to remember! Olivia knows what looks best on her and she decided to wear a strapless gown on both the Miss USA stage and down the aisle. Instead of sticking to a sweetheart style, Olivia chose an elegant straight-cut neckline for her big day.

Nia Sanchez

We have another star-studded, pageant queen wedding! Nia Sanchez and Daniel Booko tied the knot in 2015 and if you think you recognize his name, then you might be right! Daniel has had roles in some super popular shows like Hannah Montana, The Suite Life of Zach & Cody, iCarly, Medium, and Desperate Housewives. While Daniel shined on the silver screen, Nia shines across the pageant stage, winning the title of Miss USA 2014 and placing as the first runner-up at Miss Universe. Clearly, Nia knows a thing or two about being a successful beauty queen, so it’s very fitting that her wedding dress was everything a princess could want.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas

Priyanka Chopra Jonas had one of the most extravagant weddings of any pageant queen. What else do you expect when a former Miss World and world-famous actress marries a former teen heartthrob turned Billboard-charting singer? Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’ multi-day celebration received worldwide coverage because of its hefty price tag, Hollywood-studded guest list, and Priyank’s stunning wedding dresses (yes- dresses!)

Olivia Zbihley

Olivia Zbihley, who competed in pageants under the name Olivia Pura, has held many titles, including Miss Illinois USA 2020 and Miss Illinois Teen USA 2016. Now, she’s holding her favorite of all: Mrs. Zbihley! Olivia’s adorable “how we met” story with her husband, Andrew Zbihley had people swooning after it was covered in a romantic New York Times feature.

Victoria Bobak

From Miss Pennsylvania USA to Mrs. Bobak, this queen is showing that elegant style transcends past the pageant stage! Formerly known as Victoria Piekut, Victoria Bobak is another former titleholder who recently tied the knot. Not only is Victoria effortlessly stylish, but she’s a total boss babe! We have so much respect for queens who go after their dreams and Victoria has showcased that she can do exactly that after opening her own boutique, Wight Elephant.
