How to Choose the Best Sample Wedding Dress for a Summer Garden Wedding

How to Choose the Best Sample Wedding Dress for a Summer Garden Wedding

Buying off-rack can have many benefits for a bride with a budget or in a time crunch, however, depending on the seasons it’s important to pay attention to style and details to ensure comfort.

For example, a summer wedding can mean climbing temps, which can compromise comfort, particularly if you’re outside in a lush garden for the reception.

At our Florida-based outlet, our bridal consultants know all about the summer heat and can help you spot the best styles suited to the season. Here are x tips to get you started.

Fabrics That Embrace All Things Cool

For a summer garden wedding, lightweight and breathable fabrics are key. Opt for dresses made of chiffon, tulle, organza, or lace. These materials will keep you cool and comfortable without compromising elegance. Avoid heavy fabrics like satin or brocade, which can clock the breeze and trap heat.

Sun-Loving Silhouettes

The right silhouette can enhance your comfort and complement the garden setting. A-line and empire waist dresses are universally flattering and ideal for outdoor weddings. Ball gowns with lighter layers can also be a good choice. Avoid overly voluminous skirts that might feel cumbersome on grassy terrain.

Check the Fit

Sample dresses are often available in limited sizes, so finding one that closely matches your measurements is crucial. When trying on dresses, ensure that the fit is comfortable and allows for easy movement. Remember that minor alterations can be made to adjust the fit, but extensive alterations might be costly. Therefore if you plan to lose weight before your big day, a larger size is easier to take in.

An Eye for Natural Elements

Garden weddings are all about embracing nature. Look for sample dresses with floral lace, embroidered flowers, or botanical motifs. These details can enhance the romantic, natural vibe of your wedding. Delicate appliqués and subtle beadwork can also add a touch of elegance without being too heavy.

Accessories That Enhance Your Look

Choose accessories that complement both the dress and the garden setting. A flower crown, delicate jewelry, and comfortable shoes can do wonders. For a touch of whimsy, consider a light veil or a sheer cape that adds a sensual feel without adding too much warmth.

Think About Practicality

Garden weddings can involve uneven terrain. Opt for a dress with a manageable train or consider adding a bustle to lift the train during the reception. This practical addition can prevent tripping and keep your dress clean.
