5 Styles of Wedding Dresses

One of the biggest decisions you will face as your big day approaches is the perfect wedding dress. The process of shopping for a wedding dress can be a fun adventure, but it can also be stressful and overwhelming. You may have no idea what you are going to wear but the important thing is to relax and remember there are as

many different kinds of dresses as there are different kinds of brides.

The style of your wedding dress is the single most important factor in creating your overall look on your wedding day.  Wedding dresses can range from sleek and simple to grand and elaborate.  The style you chose for your wedding day will depend on your own personal taste and the statement you want to make on your big day. 

Mermaid or Trumpet Style

Mermaid or Trumpet style wedding dresses hug the curves closely and are a great choice if you feel like to want to accentuate your curvy figure. Women that are petite may find that it shortens their appearance and so may find this  unappealing. This is a beautiful shape for the fit, yet curvy girl.

A-Line or Princess

A-Line wedding dresses are wonderful choices for almost any bride. This flattering dress shape balances out top heavy shapes and helps hide some tummy bulge. This style is also known as the Princess Wedding Dress style. A most forgiving style, it's a great choice for most brides.

Empire

This is a very forgiving wedding dress shape, great for many body types. Classically it has a high waistline and the seam is just underneath the bust and the fabric below the waist falls gracefully to the floor. Slim brides with small busts tend to like this shape as well and pregnant brides find this the most comfortable shape to wear.

Sheath or Column

The Sheath, which is also known as the Column wedding dress runs pretty much vertically from the shoulders down to the floor and the hem does not flair out, like it does in the A-Line, Empire or Ball Gown. These dresses are usually body-hugging wedding gowns and work best for slim brides with balanced figures. It is also suitable for petite brides on the slim side since it tends to elongate their shape. If you are not super confident in your shape, you might want to mark this one off your list, as you want to be happy and confident on your wedding day.

Ball Gown

The Ball Gown wedding gown is also called the Fairy-Tale wedding gown, or the Cinderella wedding dress. Usually paired with fitted bodices, these gowns flare out from the hips, adding drama and over-the-top glamour. A fitted waist is ideal for this shape and petite body types might find these dresses a bit overwhelming to their small frames.

Colored Wedding Dresses

In 1840 Queen Victoria, walked down the aisle in a white wedding dress and the trend of wearing a white has been if full force ever since. Up until then it was very common for women to be wed in their best gown regardless of color. 

                                                              

It seems colored wedding dresses have become a trend again...at least a slight trend! Dresses no longer have to be white, ivory or champagne.  Remember it wasn't too long ago that Jessica Biel wore a pink wedding dress at her wedding to Justin Timberlake.  

You may be thinking about wearing a colored wedding dress yourself.  It could be that it fits your personality or you feel you do not look good in white.    Either way, a colored wedding dress is going to make the statement that you are an independent woman with style!

My personal choice for colored wedding dresses is pale, pastel, soft muted colors...which is what is shown in this blog.  But your style may be more bright and bold...if so ...go for it!
