What Is A
Destination Wedding Dress?
Cindy English
Just as
destination weddings are fast growing in popularity, so are
destination wedding dresses.
What exactly
is a destination wedding dress? It is a trendy, sensible, cost
effective alternative to the traditional wedding gown.
You don't
have to be leaving town to choose a destination wedding dress.
The name lends itself to the fact that these bridal gowns are
usually made of softer, lighter fabrics that pack easily and
travel well.
However,
these informal wedding gowns are nothing less than spectacular
with sleek lines, and simple designs. Today, more and more
brides-to-be are choosing to stray from the multi layers of
frill and lace in favor of the simplistic beauty of a
destination wedding dress.
Lightweight
fabrics such as chiffon, organza, silk, rayon, crepe or crinkle
cotton are extremely popular and practical. They are cool,
elegant and comfortable. The lightweight, wrinkle resistant
qualities of such fabrics make your precious wedding gown very "packable".
Styles range
from truly elegant full length gowns to romantic tea length.
Sexy slip dresses and halter styles are also very popular and
beautiful. For a casual beach wedding dress, consider a sarong
or a Hawaiian holoku.
The cost for
such a dress itself warrants consideration, especially for the
frugal bride on a tight budget. You can easily keep the cost of
your beach wedding dress under $300.00 without sacrificing style
at all!
Remember...
Dollars do
NOT dictate beauty! Some of the prettiest wedding gowns I have
seen, both casual and formal, have been right on eBay... at a
fraction of the cost!
It doesn't
matter whether you are looking for an informal beach wedding
dress for your poolside ceremony, a sunrise or sunset ocean
front ceremony, or if you are planning to wed onboard a luxury
cruise liner...
The
destination wedding dress is perfect for every wedding style!
One more
thing...
When
traveling to your wedding destination, do NOT entrust the safe
keeping of your wedding gown to airline attendants. Not long
ago, as I stood in the Jacksonville airport, I watched one young
girl break down as a baggage handler, presented her with her
wedding dress accompanied by an apology. The garment bag was
torn open and there were black tire prints on her lovely silk
gown. It had apparently slipped off the side of the baggage
trolley and been driven over, then dragged back to the terminal
from the plane.
Don't let
this happen to you!
