STURGIS WEDDING DETAILS &
BIKER WEDDING ATTIRE

Do you have a favorite song? A meaningful poem? Special nicknames? A card that one of you wrote to the other? Your ceremony can incorporate all of these little details, making it as unique as your relationship.

Bring your grandmother’s lace hankie, that lucky penny you’ve had since you were eight, or the earrings he bought for you on your first date. In my family, we have a tradition of cutting the wedding cake with my grandfather’s saber!

Biker wedding attire varies widely and wildly! Whatever is your heart’s desire will be perfect. I’ve seen everything from traditional, floor-length wedding gowns (paired with Harley flame-colored boots) to leathers to t-shirts and shorts. For photos of examples, see our Wedding Attire page. If you want to wear a tux, visit Audra’s Bridal Gallery in Rapid City (see Helpful Links). Audra and her staff will take good care of you.

Or stop at any of the Black Hills Harley-Davidson stores in Sturgis (see Helpful Links) and pick up just the right vest, bandana, or boots. Rig out your bike with “Just Married” signs, bells, ribbons, and cans!

For couples who choose to have flowers, anything from silk to wildflowers to floral arrangements works. (I recommend Victoria’s Garden in Rapid City for stunning and unusual bouquets.)

For professional photographs of your special day, check out the excellent photographers recommended on Helpful Links.

And when you are ready to start planning your motorcycle wedding, print our Sturgis Rally Weddings checklist.



We cannot express to you how meaningful and special our ceremony was!! The children being involved, the beautiful location, perfect guidance from you, all the special readings, and the unity ceremony!! We are still in such a state of floating from it. We are recommending you to all we meet! Thank you again from our hearts!
