Wedding Dress Alternatives<br />

Wedding Dress Alternatives<br />

WRITTEN BY Mallory Gibson<br />

1. Jumpsuit<br />

This can be perfect for anyone who just doesn’t do<br />

dresses. It could be perfect for same-sex marriages, or<br />

someone who just doesn’t want to deal with the hassle<br />

of picking up their dress every time they want to move.<br />

2. Romper<br />

A similar take on the jumpsuit, a romper could be a cute<br />

outfit if you’re not into the frilly, poofy dresses but also<br />

want to stay cool. Designers have come out with lots<br />

of different options now, from lace to bling or even just<br />

modern and simple.<br />

3. Cocktail Dresses<br />

Short dresses can be more casual and definitely more<br />

budget-friendly. There are lot of different styles so you<br />

can still be a girly bride, but not have the long train to<br />

constantly worry about as you dance the night away.<br />

4. Colored Dresses<br />

This can be a super fun and quirky twist to the typical<br />

wedding dress. It can definitely brighten the overall<br />

mood and vibe of the wedding, and make the bride stand<br />

out even more.<br />

5. Repurpose a Dress You Already Have<br />

Love something that you already own? According to<br />

Vogue Australia, British actress, Keira Knightley, wore a<br />

Chanel dress that she already had in her closet, and you<br />

can too.<br />

This is your wedding day. Yours. Not your mom’s, not your sister’s, but yours. Brides are always pictured to<br />

wear a long, white gown with a long, white veil when walking down the aisle, and we have had this image<br />

in our heads ever since we were little, right? It is incredibly important you feel beautiful on your wedding<br />

day, so if a big, white ball gown isn’t your thing, then don’t wear one! Your comfort, your confidence, and how<br />

you feel on your day overall is top priority so it’s OK to find something stylish that suits your personality.<br />

Let’s toss aside the stereotypical wedding gowns and talk about some alternatives.<br />
