Have you ever considered having a reception dress?

Many brides today choose to have two dresses, one for the ceremony and formalities and one for the reception festivities. There are many reasons this could interest you and make your day more unique and enjoyable.

Traditionally, brides have worn one gown for both the ceremony and the reception, however more and more brides are opting for a second dress to saunter around their reception in.

Reception dresses are usually short and lighter than the ceremony dress. This is also a reason to consider a reception dress. If your dress is heavy or has a very long train, changing into a second dress may allow you more freedom to move around the rest of the night.

Having a reception dress also adds a unique element to your wedding since many brides choose to stick to one dress, this gives guests another detail to remember about your night! This is also an opportunity to add a pop of color if you want.

Reception dresses don't have to be short either, maybe you just wanted a lighter, fun, or simply a different style for the reception.

Or you can simply change into it at the end of the reception and be prepared for the after party! Feel free to add some bling!

Many girls may dream of that one dress you will have all of your wedding memories in, but if you want to spread the memories into a second fashion element, a reception dress is a great way to add a unique touch to your wedding and allow you a more carefree ensemble to dance the night away in.
