Destination Wedding Dresses
With cold weather alerts all over the place in Toronto, we wanted to think warm thoughts and transport ourselves somewhere warm, somewhere with sandy beaches, warm sun, blue oceans……hmm, we feel better already!
To keep the feeling alive, this week's dresses are our picks (from recent dress listings on SmartBride Boutique) for destination weddings. These light and airy dresses are perfect for those of you contemplating a beach wedding. Plus, all of the dresses featured are under $2000, leaving money to spare.
We hope you enjoy this week's choices.
1. Size 8 Mon Cheri Wedding Dress- $200
Starting off our picks for destination dresses this week is this size 8 Mon Cheri wedding dress in Toronto from our friends at Windfall. This is a simple dress, with no train to get caught up in the sand. However, there is a bit of Spanish flair in the skirt from the sheer ruffles. This is definitely a dress you can dance on the beach in!
2. Size 4 Alfred Angelo Wedding Dress - $300
Another inexpensive, but beautiful destination wedding dress option is this size 4 Alfred Angelo strapless tea length wedding dress in Florida. The lace overlay extends beyond the underskirt, creating a unique effect when the setting sun hits the dress.
3. Size 12 Pallas Athena Wedding Dress - $350
This brand new size 12 Pallas Athena wedding dress in Winnipeg, has a simple but stunning silhouette. Beadwork across the empire bust and a deep V neckline is perfect for a beach wedding, especially if you've already had some sun! The skirt is unadorned and flows to the ground.
4. Size 10 Maggie Sottero Wedding Dress - $800
The smart bride who wore this dress did so in flip flops at her beach wedding – how fun is that! This size 10 Maggie Sottero RD1044 wedding dress in Ottawa is another great option for a destination wedding. The flowing skirt is perfect for the beach, while the asymmetric top adds a punch to set it apart from other wedding gowns out there.
5. Size 8 Vera Wang Wedding Dress - $2000
At the higher end of the price spectrum is this size 8 Vera Wang 1G077 wedding dress in Toronto. The halter neck and stunning drop back with sheer train would be just stunning for a destination wedding. Plus, it's a never been worn sample Vera Wang for $2000! This dress typically retails for $5000, so this is a serious deal!
