Wedding Dresses The Elegant The Bold, and The Sleek

It's a question every bride has to consider when planning a wedding; which dress do I want to wear? It's your big day, and it's your dress, but if you are struggling to choose the perfect dress, the answer may lie in an unusual source, the location of the wedding.

Of course, it isn't crucial to match your wedding dress to your location, but it can help to create a more cohesive theme and will help to make your wedding pictures look amazing. Here, you will be guided through which wedding dress will match which location.

Castle Wedding- Vintage Beaded Dress

If you are getting married in a castle, you will likely want to wear something truly special, more so if the castle comes complete with breathtaking wedding ballrooms to dance in with your partner.

So, while you can wear a plain white dress, why not go for something vintage, in champagne, or even with gold accents? Try to make sure that you have a more traditional vibe with the dress, maybe choose a dress that looks a bit more Victorian, or even medieval.

Beach Wedding- Mermaid or Trumpet Dress

Getting married on the beach is the epitome of romance for many people, especially if they met on the beach. Thus, for brides who will say "I do" on the sand, it can be worth looking at dresses in the mermaid or trumpet style. These will highlight your figure and will also be simple and breathable enough on a warm day. A heads-up, though: don't wear heels on a sandy beach, and don't buy a dress with a train. The sand will get everywhere!

Manor Wedding- Lace Ballgown

Lace ballgowns with a sweetheart neckline, long sleeves, or simple straps are perfect for a manor house wedding. The lace will add a layer of sophistication, and the ballgown will help you look and feel like a princess as you walk through the grounds. With truly extravagant ballgowns, it is worth trying them on first with the shoes you intend to wear and doing some walking around. These dresses can be heavy, and the last thing you want on your wedding day is to be uncomfortable.

Church Wedding- Strapless A-Line

If you are a bride with a larger bosom, the idea of going strapless may send you into a panic but, don't worry; there are A-Line dresses that have corsets built in, which can help! A strapless A-Line dress is simple, elegant, and offers a unique flow that you won't get with a beaded or lace dress, and, when paired with the church backdrop and a veil, it will look stunning.

Barn Wedding- Short Skater Dress

Long, flowing dresses are always popular, but the online search for short dresses has taken off recently. So, if you are going to say "I do" in a barn or more rural setting, why not try your hand with a shorter wedding dress, in a more skater style? This will help you highlight the shoes you are wearing and give off a more casual vibe, which flows seamlessly with the barn and other outdoor weddings.
