Short Wedding Dresses

Popular in the 1950's and 1960's the shorter mid-calf wedding dress was stylish and charming, and would lend itself well to a beach wedding ceremony where a full length formal gown may not be appropriate.

This Satin Tea Length Dress shown on the left, has a charming retro look and would be adorable for a Bride at an informal garden wedding, or for the Maid of Honor dress.

Short Wedding Dresses are available in a variety of fabrics ranging from Satin, Lace, Chiffon, Organza, Tulle and Taffeta.

The Tea Length gown can also be strapless, halter neckline, off the shoulder or have sleeves or shoulder straps – there are many styles from which to choose

In general even a short wedding dress can be formal or informal – knee length dresses are often more casual, and the three tea length dresses shown here are a little more formal

The pretty strapless Sweetheart Neckline dress shown on the right, would be lovely for a casual summer wedding.

This style of dress would also be suitable for a Retro-themed ceremony as there is a romantic, elegant look to many tea length gowns.

The glamorous strapless Tulle over Satin Dress shown on the left, has a wide waist sash and a pretty decorative strapless bodice, and has a deliciously vintage look!

Paired with either a short veil, or a pretty headpiece and blusher veil, this dress would be adorable for a summer wedding.

Whether you choose a traditional tiara for your wedding, or a more casual Ribbon Headpiece, you can get the Romantic look you want with a shorter Wedding Dress.

Often, the cost of a Tea Length Wedding Dress is much lower than a full length traditional Wedding Gown, so brides on a budget may also want to take the cost into consideration.

So, if you are a trail blazer and would like your wedding dress to be less traditional than a long white gown, then perhaps a Tea Length Wedding Dress is just what you want!

Happy Wedding!
