Traditional Weddings
For a traditional wedding, perhaps one that takes place in a church, you will want something more timeless and tasteful. Ball gowns and A-line wedding dresses are the epitome of class and will most make you feel nothing short of a princess.

All of these options are so flattering on every body type and accentuate the neckline beautifully, while also contrasting against the fullness of the skirt.

Modern Weddings
Lastly, if you and your fiancé have planned a more modern ceremony, you will want your wedding dress to reflect this new age, contemporary vibe. If you are the type of person who keeps up with all the latest and greatest trends, why not extend this to your wedding? Modern brides can get more creative with newer details that stray from the more traditional silhouettes. I am talking about trumpet sleeves, clean lines, two-piece sets, plunging necklines, and high slits.
