Woman in a wedding dress

The bride's second dress: yes or no?

Is a second dress for your wedding a necessity or a waste of money? We've put together a list of questions to help you figure it out.

WILL YOU HAVE A CLASSIC CEREMONY?

The classic style of the wedding dictates not only the choice of location and decor but also the images of the bride and groom. The protagonist of the celebration should appear before the many guests and the groom, waiting for her at the archway, in the image of a real princess from a fairy tale - or a noble queen!

The magnificent white dress with a long train, a falling veil, heels, a neat bouquet in light colors, no extravagant details ... The ceremony is the most solemn part of the holiday, and everything in it should conform to the chosen style. Another thing is the gala dinner, which awaits you afterward.

As a rule, even at lavish weddings in luxury restaurants, this is a more informal part of the celebration, which allows the protagonists of the holiday to relax - and change the image to a more comfortable one.

DO YOU LIKE TO DANCE?

If your answer is yes, you probably plan to spend most of your wedding night on the dance floor. And that's the best reason to buy a more comfortable and shorter dress that won't restrict your movements.
A nice bonus: you'll finally be able to show off your beautiful shoes that were hiding under the puffy skirt of your first dress. Another bonus: you won't have to worry about someone stepping on the train.

IS IT POSSIBLE FOR THE WEATHER TO BE CAPRICIOUS ON YOUR WEDDING DAY?

We hope you've already made a plan "B" on the decor and timing in case of rain, sudden cold or, conversely, abnormal heat. Now it's important to think through and your image in accordance with possible weather surprises. To spend the entire day in a magnificent wedding dress, when it is +30 outside and not a single cloud - not the best idea. In that case, it is better to choose something lighter and looser for the banquet. And vice versa: if there is a chance that the evening will be cold, you should think about how to "insulate" the outfit.

ARE YOU AND YOUR FIANCÉ PLANNING A DIFFICULT DANCE?

Unfortunately, most wedding dresses, even the most delicate and flying, are not at all suitable for the performance of the dance. So if you're planning something more elaborate than just a slow dance in your arms, you should think about buying a second dress.

YOU CAN'T MAKE A FINAL CHOICE?

Does an elegant mermaid dress or a light, fly, airy dress suit your style and style; do you like both classic white and powdered pink; does the wedding concept allow for both a romantic and more informal look? Have you been unable to choose

between the two options for days now? Indulge yourself and buy both! After all, a wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, and may all your dreams come true at it!
