1. Make a bold move with colors
For women who wish to step outside the confines of tradition, the choices in colored wedding dresses can be quite spectacular. You can now slip in bright shades into waistbands, necklines, embroidery, beading, insert panels – you name it. Nobody will object to your selection especially as it is your day to stand out, conventions be damned.
Typically though, if you’re picking out a dress, you have to be aware of how women who go with colored bridal gowns like to not go too far. For the most part, they’ll choose something light and modest – think pinks, blues, and lavender. But more vivid shades aren’t out of the question either. Bright, vibrant shades often look much better at themed weddings where everyone attempts to complement their choice of dress to something like a tropical theme or a flower theme.
2. An informal affair
Casual is also a sought-after summer trend this year. If you plan on having a beach wedding or a garden wedding, you need a wedding dress that doesn’t slow down your movement, especially if you intend on mingling and doing a whole lot of dancing throughout the reception. Short and cute casual wedding dresses will not only make you look trendy and chic, these dresses will also make you feel comfortable enough to tango or cha-cha-cha your way around the dance floor.

7. Something for the bridesmaid
When it comes to the wedding party attire, it can be a bit of a balancing act to put together bridesmaid outfits that are casual, yet elegant.

The fabric also plays a big role in the effect achieved by your bridesmaid attire. You may want to opt for matte materials such as crepe, chiffon, polished cotton, or even linen (if you don’t mind a little rumple to go with your casual wedding theme). And ombre dresses are also great choices for summer weddings. With dresses this beautiful and comfortable, your bridesmaids are sure to look and feel drop-dead gorgeous. Dare I lead you to believe that they may even be able to wear again their bridesmaid dresses?
