Candace Cameron Bure Wore 2 Very Different Dresses To Her Kids' Weddings (& Stunned In Both)

We know her best as DJ Tanner from the "Full House" universe, but Candace Cameron Bure has also worn a few other hats during her time in the spotlight. Along with becoming a Hallmark Christmas staple, Candace has made a name for herself as something of a fashionista, and that couldn't be clearer following the weddings of two of her kids, son Lev Bure and daughter Natasha Bure. Though she chose a completely different gown for each event, she looked gorgeous in both, earning praise from legions of fans on Instagram.

Perhaps the more show-stopping of the two dresses was the strapless gold frock she wore to Lev's January 2024 wedding to wife Elliott. The floor-length gown oozed a regal vibe thanks to its metallic finish, not to mention the woven textured detail that almost made it look like the dress was made of dragon scales. The gown alone was a vision, but Candace really hit this one out of the park with the fact that it fit her perfectly and wasn't overshadowed by accessories. She simply paired it with a dainty necklace, natural makeup, and her hair in long structured waves. 

"I need every detail about your incredible dress!!!" one fan gushed in the comment section, while another asked, "Does anyone have an idea where she got the gold dress?" Others seemed to want the dress for their own mother-of-the-groom duties, with one fan writing, "Love your dress! My son is getting married in July — would you mind sharing where you got your gorgeous gown!" Candace kept her lips sealed this time, but she was more open about where she got her mother-of-the-bride dress from, which she wore to her daughter's wedding the following September.

For daughter Natasha Bure's September 2025 nuptials with "Good Luck Charlie" actor Bradley Steven Perry, Candace Cameron Bure took a different approach. She looked gorgeous once more in what may have been one of the best celebrity wedding guest dresses of 2025, but this time in a cornflower-blue strapless gown that had less of a regal feel in the place of more avant-garde energy. The bust was deconstructed, while the rest of the dress was form-fitting through the torso before flaring below the knee, almost in a mermaid style. Definitely an edgier and more creative look, this dress also earned comments from adoring fans.

"Candace, your dress is perfection!" wrote one. Another noted that the dress fit Candace perfectly, just as her last gown had: "She is so beautiful!!!! You too, mama! That dress is perfect for you!" Others speculated that perhaps the color was a strategic choice this time. "You wore BLUE to welcome a son!" one fan theorized. "So beautiful! God bless this beautiful family!" Candace tagged Oscar de la Renta in the post, revealing the high-end designer was responsible for this experimental look. Frankly, we're not too surprised since that powder-blue shade has appeared in the brand's collections in 2025. There are footwear mistakes to avoid if you're the mother of the bride, but Candace wisely covered her feet at both events to avoid any issues.

Notably, Candace had cut her long waves into a sleek, asymmetrical bob to wear to Natasha's wedding, and it helped to balance out the heavier bust. She went necklace-free this time, letting her dazzling earrings do the talking. Clearly, the "Unsung Hero" star knows a thing or two about proportions and balance, and it paid off in both of these looks. 

Both of the dresses that Candace Cameron Bure wore to her children's weddings were inherently beautiful, but they were made better by the way that she followed the conventions of wedding-guest dressing, particularly as the mother of the bride or groom. The golden rule is to follow the advice of the couple getting married, and it looks like Candace got both of her kids' approval, given the happy family shots shared on Instagram. "I love you!!!" daughter Natasha Perry wrote in the comment section of her 2025 post. 

Along with getting the bride and groom's approval, mothers of the newlyweds should also keep in mind the ceremony specifics, dress code, and context. Both of Candace's kids' weddings seemed like dressier black-tie affairs, so she didn't seem out of place in either red-carpet-esque gown. Accessorizing is important, which she nailed on both accounts, and when in doubt, it's better for the mother of the bride or groom to be overdressed than underdressed. While some could potentially accuse Candace of trying to steal the show, particularly with the gilded gown, the comments seem to indicate that she looked appropriately stunning for such important and formal events. 

All that said, even fashionistas have bad days. She looked phenomenal in these two looks, but Candace Cameron Bure may still be haunted by an inappropriate wedding guest dress from November 2021.
