"Bridal Beauty"

  Bridal Beauty was one of two specifically Wedding-themed ponies that were sold in the 1990s. Wedding themed ponies were not uncommon in the earlier pony line - with Confetti in  Europe and Satin & Lace in North America, and 1990 had also seen a bridesmaid themed club newborn in the UK Activity Club.

Both Bridal Beauty and her predecessor, Pony Bride, were sold in a new pose style in which only a few ponies were ever made. It is a taller, slimmer pose but not as slender as the Sweetheart Sister ponies.

Bridal Beauty was sold in box in North America and in the UK and Europe. Over here, she was part of the 1993 line, meaning that she had a lurid pink box in the same style as all other releases in this year.

Bridal Beauty seems to be less well-known than Pony Bride although they are equally as common as one another. My sister wanted Pony Bride as a kid, but at the time only Bridal Beauty was available and honestly, she didn't really notice the difference. Hasbro really made the most of the theme with a very minor shift in the symbol to encourage more sales.

Bridal Beauty's Character

Bridal Beauty made an appearance in the UK comic, where she went to Sweetheart's family shop to help her with her wedding arrangements. This of course inspired Sweetheart's romantic streak!
