Many brides today, especially those of more conservative persuasion, are interested in wearing wedding dresses that are modest. Many women prefer not to have sleeveless or backless dresses, and would instead prefer to be well-covered. The problem with this is that today's styles call for a certain amount of immodesty. It can be difficult to find a dress that is both fashionable and modest. Many brides worry that wearing a modest dress will make them look frowsy. And no one wants to look frowsy on her wedding day.
The good news is that it is possible to find modest wedding dresses (as well as modest dress styles for all of the members of your bridal party). It takes a little hunting, and sometimes some creativity, but you can get a beautiful dress that you feel comfortable in with a little persistence. The Internet can be an especially helpful tool when looking for a modest wedding dress. Sites like beautifullymodest.com, totallymodest.com and latterdaybride.com (this site is especially aimed at Mormons, but has plenty of modest options that someone of any religion can enjoy) allow you access to a variety of dresses that keep you well covered.
It is possible to take an immodest dress and turn it into a modest wedding dress, however. A lovely and beautifully designed jacket can look very modern as part of a wedding dress, and can cover up bare shoulders and back. A shawl is another option. Take a length of silk, satin or even shimmering gossamer and wrap yourself in elegance and grace for your wedding. For the more sewing-inclined, it is possible to add sleeves or a back. Hiring a seamstress to complete the alterations is also an option, but will add even more to the cost of the dress.
