Destination Wedding Dresses, by Body Type

I mentioned in a previous post the importance of using the same standards for picking a beach wedding dress that you would any wedding dress--focusing on something that fits you well and makes you feel comfortable.

Check out this great guide that makes suggestions for destination wedding dresses based on body type. The guide includes dress suggestions for body types that are curvy, athletic, pear shaped, petite, busy and small busted.


< Busty shapes should consider a dress with delicate sleeves or a sweetheart neckline to flatter the bust while providing some coverage.

Beach Wedding Dresses

Are you planning for your destination wedding, and wondering what makes a great beach wedding dress? Use the same criteria you would when picking out your dress for a more traditional ceremony--go with fit and something that makes you feel beautiful. Your wedding is going to be one of the most memorable days of your life, go with something that you're comfortable in that won't require a lot of maintenance.

Since you're getting married on the beach, you'll probably want to consider a more casual variant of what you would normally pick out. Beach weddings can be hot; lightweight and airy fabrics are not only more comfortable, but will also look beautiful flowing in the breeze!

Make sure to pick something you can move in, as guests at destination weddings are generally very eager to kick of their shoes and hit the dance floor. Check out this site to draw inspiration for your perfect beach wedding dress!
