Traditional wedding dresses - short
What’s traditional? Today lots of things go for weddings. It’s your wedding and you can break the traditional rules. Short dresses were reserved for more informal ceremonies. But if it’s the look you want, you can make the call.
Tea length and short wedding dresses are more casual. They go better in settings such as a backyard wedding, destination or beach setting or a courthouse wedding.
Others have chosen a short dress for later in the reception or when they’re leaving with the new spouse.
And just because they’re short doesn’t mean that they don’t have a designer’s touch. Many designers have limited short or tea-length wedding dresses.
There is always the option to shorten a long dress to the length you like. We have an in-house alterations team who have lots of experience with bridal gowns and making sure that the cut of the dress fits with what changes you’re trying to make to it. Sometimes, when you’re using an alterations person without experience, they can make changes that can hurt the dress and its lines. That’s why our experience counts at Uptown Bride.
