Finding the perfect wedding dress is at the top of every bride’s wedding planning to-do list, but with so many options available these days, it can get a bit overwhelming. Gone are the times of boutiques full of ball gowns and dresses as poofy as a three-layered cake. Not to say those options aren’t great, if that’s what you love, but before you stamp your approval on any one dress, consider these tips on how to find the wedding dress that truly fits your vibe.
First off, do try on as many wedding dresses as you need to in all shapes and styles so you can see what kind of design looks best on you, as well as what silhouette flatters your figure. Once you have a basic idea, then you can look at style details and what kind of vibe you want to express in your dress.
After all, it is your dress and like any article of clothing you purchase, you want it to fit your personality.
Lace Wedding Dresses for the Hopeless Romantic
If classic glamour and feminine romance is your vibe, consider a lace wedding dress.
This regency style lace wedding dress with empire waist is all very Jane Austen. If you can imagine yourself lounging in a garden with your favorite book and a cup of tea, this style dress might just fit your vibe.
If you’re looking for something a bit more modern, but still want that classically romantic feel, try a dress like the Lori, which is a gorgeous combination of satin and lace with a mermaid silhouette.
Vintage-inspired Wedding Dresses for the Haute Historian
Do you find yourself dreaming of years gone by or feel like you were born in the wrong decade? If you prefer the roaring 20s over the 2000s, then a vintage-inspired wedding dress is the way to go.
You’ll feel like a starlet in this throwback to 1920s Hollywood. The Anabel is all glitter and gold with intricate beading and sheer sleeves. Walking down the aisle will be like walking the red carpet!
Say yes to a dress reminiscent of strolls through the French countryside. This French lace tulle gown with empire waist and lace bodice is everything a vintage dress should be.
Modest Wedding Dresses for the Traditional Bride
If modest is your mojo then look no further than Ieie’s collection of bridal gowns designed with the LDS/Mormon and Jewish bride in mind. But even if you’re just looking for something traditional, sweet, and simple, these dresses take the cake.
In the age of strapless gowns and plunging necklines, a long sleeve wedding dress is a rare gem, just like you! The Avina is delicately designed with layers of vintage lace and a jeweled neckline to give you just the right amount of sparkle.
Modest doesn’t have to mean yards of white fabric. The Jenni, a champagne lace ball gown, is perfect for the bride who wants to combine traditional and trendy.
Whimsical Wedding Dresses for the Fairy Tale Bride
If you’ve always dreamed of your very own pair of fairy wings, then a whimsical wedding dress will suit your vibe.
A fairy princess like yourself should definitely consider an ethereal ball gown like the Eliza. Layers of organza create a floating effect, which in this humanly realm, is just as good as a pair of wings.
The fairy queen herself would be envious eyeing this princess ruffle ball gown. The lace bodice, beaded accents, and ruffle skirt are befitting of a queen, after all.
Short Wedding Dresses for the Rebel with a Cause
You’re a rebel for love and adore the non traditional wedding style, plus, you really want to show off your shoes. So put yourself in a tea-length dress that’s both sassy and sweet.
Every woman knows that the outfit must fit the mood, so a strapless two piece convertible wedding dress is the way to ensure your mood gets expressed. Say your I do’s in the tulle skirt, then detach and dance the night away.
Whether your prom night was a blast or a bust, relive it just the way you like in a retro 50s prom-inspired dress. The Gabby is a gorgeous blue formal dress that can be customized to suit your alternative wedding needs. Who says white is the way to go when you have dresses like this?
