The Perfect Gown for an Outdoor Wedding

·
    Straps no straps…a strapless gown needs to be adjusted and pulled
on…non stop, it's not pretty and often the bride feels bruised by the
end of the day from all the pulling.  A strapless gown with a train is even
more pulling as the train is arranged during ever image and position.

·     Straps provide more comfort, less pulling, less bruising and more
ease.

·     Train or no train…with an outdoor wedding venue a train will get
dirty.  It will need to be adjusted with each image.  You will need to
assign someone this job.  It is back breaking work, so select someone
young and short. Even a small train will need to be adjusted with each
position change. A train is beautiful in the photography.
You may
consider wearing the train bustled and at the end of your photography
session, take it down for a few final images.
 It can be a lot of effort for
a bride to carry a train around with her
.  Heavier fabrics seem not to
pick up as much dirt o
r soil but are more weight to carry.

.     If you are concerned about your gown getting dirty, consider a tea
length
gown or a short gown.  A tea length gown is youthful and easy to
wear in the garden.  A three quarter sleeve adds a touch of warmth on
the skin.  Visit this
pin board for examples.
