Is the idea of a big fancy wedding not quite what you had in mind for your dream wedding? Not to worry, for many brides just the thought of having a big fancy and expensive wedding and a big white wedding dress just isn’t their cup of tea. So if an informal wedding is more of what you had in mind, then you’re going to need an informal wedding dress to go along with it. Not all weddings have to be formal princess like affairs, and more brides prefer a low-key wedding instead of pulling out all the stops. So if you’re working to plan an informal wedding, you may be wondering if an informal wedding dress is right for you, or where you can even find the perfect informal wedding dress for you. There are lots of benefits for choosing an informal wedding dress rather than a big formal one, and you may be surprised at some of the reasons brides are loving them! Here is just some of the great benefits of choosing an informal wedding dress.
Why Choose an Informal Wedding Dress?
Perhaps one of the best benefits of an informal wedding dress is the cost savings.
Designer wedding dresses are expensive, and cost thousands of dollars, but an informal wedding dress is much nicer on the pocketbook often just costing a couple hundred dollars. Another great benefit of buying an informal wedding dress is that you don’t have to go to a bridal shop to find them. Instead, visit formal wear shops and other dress shops which tend to be fancy, but much more causal than a bridal boutique. Also, informal wedding dresses work great for outdoor or beach weddings, where the bride still wants to look elegant and classy, but without the fear that her wedding dress is going to get dirty. Another great benefit of an informal wedding dress is that they work wonderfully for destination weddings, as they aren’t quite as bulky to pack; and an informal wedding dress works great for second weddings as well, who want something more casual as they already wore a fancy dress the first time around. No matter what your circumstances are, if you are looking for an informal wedding dress, not only do you have a lot of options, but it just makes sense.
What to Wear with An Informal Wedding Dress
An informal wedding dress doesn’t usually come with all of the extras like formal wedding dresses do, but sometimes a wedding dress that is plain and simple is all you need. If you’re looking for an informal wedding dress, then you’re probably planning a more casual wedding. In this case, leaving your hair down with simple adornments such as flowers or fancy clips is elegant. Also, instead of carrying a huge bouquet of cascading flowers, opt instead for a few beautiful blooms tied together simply with ribbon or length of lace. White pumps or a pair or strappy sandals will finish off your perfect look with an informal wedding dress.
Remember that just because you are wanting a casual wedding with an informal wedding dress doesn’t mean that you can’t and won’t look beautiful on your wedding day. There are plenty of beautiful and gorgeous styles of an informal wedding dress that you can use to make you look and feel like the beautiful bride that you are!

Oh I agree with this post. Although I am not an informal wedding dress kind of girl, I do think that if that is your style you WILL be gorgeous on your wedding day. Also, you can have more in your budget to go for a live band instead of a DJ at the reception. One of my friend’s had gotten married and she had a smaller wedding and the informal dress, which saved her money in her budget, so her and her now-husband decided to get a live Chicago Wedding Band to play at their reception. It was really fun, and they enjoyed it a lot. Especially knowing that they didn’t go over their budget doing so.
