A Formal Wedding Dress Is Not This Season’s Hottest Trend
Now that spring has sprung and the winter has been left behind, wedding season is in full swing. New ideas are coming out of bridal designers studios quite literally daily, and they are saying that the hottest new trends are not incorporating the traditional, formal wedding dress. If you are planning a wedding for this season, then you need to take this into account.
Many things fall by the wayside when new trends come into play, presently (and I say this with very little sadness), so is the formal wedding dress. This year the wedding season is allowing all prospective brides to get funky and save money. There is no reason why the global economic downturn should rob you of the right to have your dream wedding.
Cowboy boots and country chic are hot for weddings being planned this season. Hiring a barn on a farm in the country will save you tons of money and accommodate just as many guests as a hotel ballroom. Barn dances and barbecues are at the top of the trends list, and a country wedding dress is both attractive and comfortable. Riding into the sunset on a hay-rick while your guests dance to the tune of “Achy Breaky Heart” is not hick it is HOT.
Cherry blossoms and Asian themes are in, vineyards are in, and country venues can save you a great deal of money. A barbecue or vineyard soiree is in, and making use of country venues saves a great deal of money on decor, and the venue. Cherry blossoms are exquisite and just think of how few flowers you will need to purchase. There is no limit to the amount of imagination you are able to unleash with a country themed wedding.
If your mother is an obstacle and she wants you to wear a formal dress of lace and seed pearls, tell her they are not fashionable at the moment. Super-short and super-chic mini’s are the latest in wedding trends, so if you have the legs, wear the dress. Team it up with a pair of Vera Wong or Jimmy Choo shoes and you can get away with murder.
