Fuss-free, charming and made for celebrating, short styles are the perfect option for modern brides.

No longer reserved solely for the reception, shorter dresses offer a relaxed and cool sense of elegance, while still commanding attention. Fuss-free, romantic, and made for celebrating, short styles are a chic option for modern nuptials, whether your big day involves a church service, beach-side ceremony, or is a small and intimate affair. - Vogue Magazine.
