Dresses for Casual Wedding

Before we jump into the dress list, let’s talk about what the bride should wear for a casual wedding. Most brides looking for casual wedding dresses are planning a beach or outdoor wedding; when it comes to your wedding, there are no rules. This means you can wear anything you want — but a few guidelines never hurt anybody!

SILHOUETTE

The number one tip for any wedding: choose a silhouette that flatters your figure best, whether sheath, A-line, strapless, ball gown, etc. Once you’ve selected your ideal silhouette, focus on the details.

LIGHTWEIGHT

For outdoor weddings, avoid casual wedding dresses that are heavy — you’ll want a light and airy look and feel. Fabrics like chiffon or organza are best. Choose a dress without a train, as it will only gather lots of sand, dirt, or leaves, and may appear dirty in photographs.

VEIL

For a veil, choose something close to your face or skip the veil altogether, since a veil will blow in the wind and constantly get in your way. And finally, for shoes, flats and sandals are best (heels are nearly impossible on the beach).

Hope it helps! Now onto the wedding dresses!
