Wedding dress help...!

nahyeera_1

We're getting married at the courthouse...I am not going to walk in there with a wedding dress. What are some of your suggestions? I've been looking but I'd LOVE some opinions...especially since I have a few more months to buy.

I think a tea length or knee length white dress would be very appropriate.  Or even a white suit (think Carrie in SATC).

A few ideas -

I agree with the others. It wouldn't look odd if you wanted a white dress. Though, I've had quite a few friends get married and they all just wore what was their style. One was in a jean skirt and sweater, one was in a white linen summer dress and cowboy boots, and one was in a white chiffon short dress. It's really what fits for you. There are plenty of white dresses that are less formal than a traditional wedding dress.

Maybe a short white lacy dress:http://www.dillards.com/product/Adrianna-Papell-Sleeveless-Lace-Dress_301_-1_301_503083046

Or more traditional dress:  http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Tulle-Embellished-Tea-Length-Gown-CPK437_Bridal-Gowns-Shop-By-Silhouette-Short

yes as others has said you can wear whatever you want. you can get a knee length dress in ivory or white or what ever color you want. I have a co-worker who is going to get married in a courthouse and she found a kneee lenght dress really nice all up to you and what you want.
