A modern wedding dress can sometimes seem plain, but they are in actual fact extremely sexy and elegant. The best thing about these dresses is that there are so many you can choose from and it can all go into so much detail, that way it is so much easier to shop for the perfect dress for your special day! You will find the perfect dress that will help you look gorgeous on this day and believe me – you will be remembered that way!
When searching for a modern wedding dress you should already have some sort of picture in your mind of what you would like your dress to look like. If not, it will be a long process and a difficult decision, because there are so many different styles and makes to choose from. Finding the right dress is very important for any woman. Your wedding day is the most important day of your life and normally only happens once in a lifetime, therefore you want to look your best and will settle for nothing less.
When deciding on which modern wedding dress you would like, you need to choose which silhouette, empire, ball gown, A-line, mermaid, trumpet or sheath, and the sleeve length which could be long, short, strapless, ¾ length, sleeveless or spaghetti straps. Then the color, yellow, purple, orange, metallic, green, brown, Champaign, ivory, multi-colored, pink or white. The style could be romantic, glamorous, bohemian, beach casual, classic or modern. Or you could just refine the dress by key embellishment, sleeve type, pieces, train, neckline, waist, hemline or the fabric.
Once you have made that decision it will be time to sort out the outfits for the bridesmaids and flower girl. They could wear the same as what you are wearing or something completely different which will be better. If you have decided on a dress, consider them wearing fancy skirts with a pretty matching top. If you all look the same it could turn all the attention away from you. The color of your dress should match the color of something on the groom’s suit, whether it is his shirt, tie or even just embroidery on his suit’s jacket.
The petals that the flower girl will be dropping down the aisle should also match the color of your dress, or the same color as your dress just in a lighter or darker form. The bridesmaid’s bouquets and the other flowers should also match something, if not your dress, maybe the color of the groom’s outfit.
It would be very unique if the bride’s mom and the groom’s mom wore the same outfits, a different style of a modern dress. Them wearing fancy dresses as well would make it a bit much. Not a lot of couples do this at their wedding therefore it will make your wedding day even more special and not like everyone else. If you choose to do this the colors should also not be the same as yours but the grooms.
There are also other things that need to be taken into consideration when buying your modern wedding dress. Size is very important, but you should always try the dress on to see if it fits. Do not just see that the size of the dress is the same size as your jeans and presume it will fit because it most likely will not. Dress sizes vary, from store to store the sizes are different. So before you buy the dress make sure it fits. The same applies to the bridesmaids and the flower girl.
It will be a disaster if they got their dresses but did not try them on until the big day and then only to discover that it is too small or too big. What would happen then? Would they have to be excluded from the wedding? It would be too late to postpone the wedding as everything is already done and you would probably have to repay for all your services. That will really be disastrous. Therefore, it is vital that everybody has tried on their outfits at least one month before the wedding so if alterations need to be made, there will be enough time for all that and everything will be ready and waiting by the time the big day comes.
A modern wedding dress is not as expensive and as glamorous as most other wedding dresses therefore it is possible for it to be used for other occasions as well. Okay maybe not for the bride but for the bridesmaids and flower girl. They could keep it one day for their wedding or to wear to a prom. Any occasion that you need to be formally dressed. The brides however would normally keep their dresses and give it to their daughter or close relative.
