Choosing the correct choice of your wedding gown will make the day memorable to bringing ecstatic bliss to the couples. There are so many styles of popular of costumes today and you have to choose a perfect bridal dress that would suit your figure and height, as well as the theme of your wedding and the place where it is planned to be held. Beach weddings and outdoor weddings are becoming popular these days and it has its say on the attire of the bride’s dress. Wearing a short wedding gown will be more beneficial to you in this case.

The long gowns that trail on the floor will not be ideal in case where the outdoor wedding events. Or otherwise, your dress will become soiled spoiling the whole look. So a short hem line would be a convenient choice in this respect if you want to protect your dress. This may be shorter ones up to the knee or of tea-length ones that would be a few inches above your ankle.

Short gowns are usually inexpensive than the longer ones because they need lesser length of fabric to stitching. They can be used to wear on other parties and ceremonies however one cannot use their long gowns later on. If you have arranged for a dance program, and you are fond of dancing along, then short dress will be more comfortable.

The climatic conditions that would be prevailing on the day of the wedding will also help you to determine the length of your wedding dress. If it is summer time, then shorter gowns will help you to be free from the hot sun. Also if you have beautiful and slender legs with cute toes, shorter gowns will expose of your beauty further. Expensive shoes with ornamental finish get more visibility in such kind of gowns.

Shorter wedding gowns are available in a variety of colors and are much cooler adding comfort in warmer climates. Some of these short wedding gowns are available with convertible fashion transformation. In this style, you can easily remove your lower portion of a long dress to leave it shorter or of tea-length. They are detachable gowns and if you are not sure where to keep your wedding when you order your wedding gowns, you may order for this variety so that you could wear in the either way. Short wedding gowns are especially good for petite brides as it would flatter her body shape well.

Halloween is a pretty easy theme to use for your wedding because it has such strong pre-existing associations. It is also a holiday that is enjoyed by both kids and adults (as well as adults who feel like kids inside!). If you are having a Halloween wedding, it helps not to take yourself too seriously, but that does not mean that the event cannot be arranged to be elegant and sophisticated.

Décor is really the place to start for a Halloween wedding. Forget crepe paper streamers and bobbing for apples, though, as they are not grown-up enough for a wedding. The cornerstone of your Halloween wedding decorations will most likely be jack-o’-lanterns. They can be carved to reflect your personal taste – traditional scary faces, fall scenes, or even monogrammed. If you know someone who is a very talented pumpkin carver, it would be awesome to have jack-o’-lanterns carved to look like the bride and groom.

Of course, candy is everyone’s favorite thing about Halloween. Naturally, you will want sweets to play a central role in a Halloween reception. Set up a table dedicated to candy and other seasonal confections like caramel apples, fudge, and popcorn balls. Present them in an elegant way, such as tall glass cylinders filled with colorful candies, and beautiful trays for the apples.

Having a Halloween wedding does not mean that your entire wedding must be done in orange and black. In fact, it would be more sophisticated to introduce some of the other autumn colors, like rich golds and deep reds. The rich red tones would work very well for your bridesmaid dresses for a Halloween wedding. Compliment them with bridesmaid jewelry sets made from sparkling burgundy Swarovksi crystals. Or, you could dress your attendants in an orangy-gold silk dupioni, accented with warm earth toned pearls in the bridesmaid jewelry sets. Just avoid anything in bright safety orange if you want your bridesmaids to speak to you after the wedding!

To costume or not to costume, that is the question. Because a marriage is a serious occasion, no matter how light-hearted the participants, I would not advise being married in a costume. Your ceremony does not have to be stuffy or formal, but it should still be dignified. That said, if the bride and groom have a passion for Halloween, a quick change act after the ceremony might be what is called for. When the newlyweds are announced as the enter the reception for the first time, it could be really fun to do so in costume. Choose something romantic, like a pair of famous lovers. Another approach would be to stay in the wedding gown and suit, but slip on elaborate masks for the grand entry to the party. That would allow you to have the best of both worlds.

When choosing your wedding theme, be sure that it is not one that you will look back on with embarrassment. In other words, if you Halloween has always been your favorite holiday, by all means select it as your wedding date. Just take care to approach it from a sophisticated perspective, worthy of an occasion as special as your marriage.
