Make your own Wedding Dress

wedding dress patterns
out there to choose from.
You could look for simple wedding dress designs.
Beach wedding dresses
don't need to be full of sequins, pearls and an elaborate pattern. Even if you don't know how to sew, you may know someone who would be happy to do it for you. (Maybe even as a wonderful wedding gift)
Informal Wedding Dress
Picking out
informal wedding dresses
or even a
sarong
would be perfect for the beach. Be sure to choose something in a lighter fabric and with less details sewn into the dress.
Consider shopping at the stores you normally do. They will have the designs that you already enjoy. If you are looking in the spring or summer you will have lots of choices, but don't give up on the other seasons.
Second Hand Wedding Dresses
Although you may not have thought about it, a second hand wedding dress is the perfect choice. Don't be discouraged by the thought of it. You may even have one in the family that you would love to wear and that your loved one would be honored to hand down.
Look in the classifieds, craigslist, at second hand shops or online. You will be surprised at the amount to choose from and the great prices.
A used wedding dress is usually well taken care of, cleaned and preserved. You may even find one that hasn't been worn. It happens much more often than you might think.
Tea Length Wedding Dresses
Tea length wedding dresses
are perfect as a beach dress. A wedding dress doesn't need to be sweeping the ground. It won't need to come from a wedding dress designer either. It can come off the rack from one of your favorite stores.
Prom Dresses as a Wedding Dress
Consider a prom dress. You'll find many white ones and they won't be as formal as a full wedding gown. You will find many that are strapless or with spaghetti straps. Perfect for your sunny beach wedding.
Just consider thinking outside of the box and you may come up with even more great ideas. Cheap beach wedding dresses are easy to come by. And you can look like a million bucks!
