Beach and destination weddings are relaxed, romantic and often warm, so your dress needs to be as practical as it is beautiful.
Choose Lightweight Fabrics
Chiffon, lightweight lace, cotton and soft crepe keep you cool and move beautifully in a sea breeze. Avoid heavy structured fabrics that can feel uncomfortable in the heat.
Think About the Silhouette
Flowing A-line, column and slip dresses are perfect for sand and sunshine. Shorter and midi lengths are practical for walking on the beach and feel appropriately relaxed.
Consider Travel
If you are flying to your destination, choose a dress that travels well and resists creasing, or one light enough to carry as hand luggage.
Practical Footwear
Flat sandals, embellished flats or even bare feet suit a beach ceremony far better than heels that will sink into the sand.
