I’ve been to more than a few weddings where the bride looked like she had been stuffed in a dupioni (or polyester!) monstrosity and forced to act as a mannequin for the entire day/evening. It seems like many dress designs force a bride to appear that way, without a skirt for dancing or movement. I LOVE to dance, and I want to dance all evening at my wedding. Has anyone selected their dress specifically around the idea that they’ll be dancing… if so post pictures! I need ideas, here.

I did … but I am not posting any pictures until after the wedding … or maybe during jk. Lol.
I LOVE that I can actually walk and move and will be able to dance in my dress. I had it custom made and it is just really my dream dress.

I have a separate reception dress — I love this dress but felt it was a little slinky for the ceremony. I needed something cooler and easier to move around in.

My dress was sort of comfy when trying it on, but after wearing it for hours, the corest was crushing my ribs :p I could barely eat (no where for the food to go!) and then could barely move (luckily we didnt have dancing!). I recommend maybe getting the wedding dress of your dreams and getting a 2nd dress if you could afford it. Otherwise, maybe a dress made of Chiffon or something flowy would work.

try most destination type gowns. mine’s from nicole miller – no corset, empire waist (we joked during the shopping trip that i could sit cross legged if i wanted to), chiffon and flowy. i can twirl in it since there’s no train either – just 4 layers of silk and silk chiffon. 🙂

@ Glamourbride17 – I LOVE your reception dress, it is so perfect to dance the night away, nice & loose! Where did you find it? I would love to get something similar to this.
