Modest Wedding Dresses for Every Kind of Girl

I think it would be safe to say that today most brides prefer sleeveless wedding dresses. However, you might be surprised to know that many brides prefer modest wedding dresses and you might be even more surprised that they look lovely in them.

Whether young and mature brides alike are choosing a modest wedding dress because they are getting married in a religious venue that requires modest dress, or because they simply prefer a modest wedding dress, they have access to a wide array of lovely fashions that fit the style of almost every type of bride. From haughty couture to ballroom and from the beach to the baseball diamond, they (and you) can find the right modest wedding dress for the day of all days.

Beach Girl Modest Wedding Dress

If you are the type of girl that dreams of a destination wedding with your intimate family and friends, then consider two of the modest wedding gowns that I think would belong on the sand!

The first dress I have in mind is one that is simple, yet gathered in "bustle bursts" in the skirt. The effect is stunning. It looks like billowed clouds but isn't pretentious. It also portrays the white motion of the sea, which for the beach-what could be better. Want to see the image of the dress that inspires my words? I saw the image of this cloud dress on a bridal gown website.

Another modest wedding dress beach option is a simple two-piece dress with simple trim and a graceful loop of the skirt. It gives the impression of effortless soft char or beauty-for the calm, sweet, beach bride. I saw the image2 that inspired these ideas on the same bridal gown website.

Couture Girl

For the girl who hates to admit it but will truly only settle for the best and most couture of fashions, there are dresses that will warm the heart of even the most determined and haughty fashionistas.

For the fasionista, elegant beadwork can be exceptional and a flawless cut is required. A fashionista should consider the daring new-age gown that will stand out with a modest--yet form fitting--richly beaded gown, that flares hill-like past the hips into an ending that is fit for a movie star. Check out the photo that inspires my admiration.3

Let's face it. The true fashionista wants to show off her beauty and grace and true blue loveliness. She may also want to show off her tiny little waist and will be able to do exactly that with the dress I have in mind. With a splash of color that draws the eye and a skirt of tiered loveliness there will be plenty of eyes wandering after this lovely item.

Accessory Girl

For the girl who wants a modest wedding dress but knows that it is the accessories that really make a statement, I would recommend two items:

The sash brooch is the perfect way to attract attention to the waist and add a touch of richness to a modest dress.

A tiara with the right hair locks can brighten an entire wedding! This tiara, though small hints towards royalty and grace.

Country Girl

A "country girl" may choose almost any style of dress, but I like to think of her focusing on a dress that is well made yet unadorned. A pure, sweet look with a traditional veil and a fitted waist would make a lovely dress for the girl who loves the pure feelings of the outdoors.

How about a dress that will remind you of Julia Robert's "bell" dress in the movie, "Runaway Bride." This type of dress in conjunction with a classic veil says gorgeous country in my book of love.

You may be a hippie bride, a European chic bride, a cowgirl bride or an Asian style bride. No matter what type of bride you are, you can take advantage of the gorgeous array of modest wedding dresses that are readily available today.
Happy Wedding Planning!
