Wearing With Pride Informal Wedding Dresses

Admit it. The thought of choosing from among formal wedding dresses with their yards and yards of fabric, hundreds upon hundreds of sequins and buttons and thingamajigs, and hoops of petticoats and corsets can give you the heebie-jeebies. Yes, maybe even enough to give you cold feet!

Well, luckily for you, modern brides have more freedom to shun formality in their wedding including their wedding dresses! Well, of course, you still have to follow proper wedding etiquette in some aspects - save the dates, invitations, and other stuff - but at least, your informal wedding dress is a load off your shoulders, literally and figuratively.

Advantages of an Informal Wedding Dress

Even when your childhood wedding dream was peppered with formal aspects akin to a princess' wedding, your adult side will appreciate the following advantages of an informal wedding dress:

* You can actually save on costs! Most informal wedding attire is priced in the hundreds of dollars, which is in contrast with the cost of formal attire in the thousands of dollars. Just imagine the ways you can divert the savings, maybe to your honeymoon! Or better yet, for a down payment on your first house.

* You can save on packing space. This is especially good when you are planning on a destination wedding where bulky formal gowns are, well, bulky.

* You can actually just buy one dress instead of two wedding dresses. You can wear the same dress from the ceremony to the reception to the honeymoon trip.

* You can reuse your dress for other occasions like an informal party with friends and family.

With all these advantages, who could resist the appeal of an informal wedding dress? Hopefully, not you!

Choosing the Dress

However, you just don't pick the first white informal wedding dress you spy on. It is still your special day and your wedding dress must be special, too. Here then are a few tips to help you choose from amongst many informal wedding dresses:

* Opt for a hemline that falls above your ankles. It can either be tea-length or an inch above the knee. Don't fall for the trap of trying to look sexy in a micro-mini on your wedding day because then you will only be eligible for the title of "The World's Worst Wedding Dress". In the same way, avoid too many cut-outs on the bodice, thigh-thigh slits and butt cleavage-baring wedding dresses.

* Try to keep it simple in terms of sequins and pearls and thingamajigs as well as in prints. Often, simple elegance is the key to pulling off an informal wedding dress.

As for accessories, you are well advised to keep it simple, too. You can wear understated jewelry to highlight your figure or your dress but do keep off statement jewelry that only complements a more formal wedding gown.

The best advice to wearing informal wedding dresses: Be happy with your life, your groom, your family and friends! You will soon realize that you can still look like a million-dollar bride even on an informal wedding dress because your beauty shines from within. And that is beauty that no amount of money can buy!
