Choosing Hawaiian wedding dresses is easy to do. There aren't any hard and fast rules. This is where you get to be creative and let your style show and have fun.
Pick one that is a light fabric, comfortable to wear and will withstand being on a beach and near the water.
With that being said, there are some themes that are more commonly seen.
Simple Wedding Dresses
Pick a design that is
simple
in nature. You don't want to go overboard on design elements.
It's fine to have some embellishments like beading and sequins, but keep them to a minimum. It's best not to place them near the hem, as well. If your dress will touch the floor (or sand) they may get caught and fall off.
Take a look at our store for some incredible Hawaiian wedding gowns. This Hawaiian company has some of the most beautiful ones that I have found.
Informal Wedding Dress
An
informal wedding dress
is a perfect marriage ;) to a destination wedding or a wedding in Hawaii. There just isn't any reason to have a full veil and cathedral length train.
If you want to go with some formal touches, definitely do so. Just be prepared to keep everything else much less formal.
Casual Wedding Dress
This is where you can let your unique style show through. You can shop at an online boutique or go to your favorite department store.
There are so many
casual styles
out there. You can choose a
sarong,tea length dress
or a holoku. This is a wedding dress that is traditional to the Hawaiian islands.
It isn't necessary to try to fit in with traditional wedding standards. Choosing your perfect Hawaii wedding dress will allow you the wedding of your dreams.
