4 Reasons Why You Should Have a Reception Dress
Are you a bride-to-be debating whether or not to have a reception dress for your big day? We get it! You have this beautiful wedding dress, of course you want to wear it all night! Right? Well we have four reasons why you should, at the very least, consider having a second dress for your wedding reception:
Versatility and Comfort: Your wedding gown while stunning and beautiful, may not be the most practical attire for dancing and mingling with your guests all night. Having a reception dress allows you to change into something a little more comfortable and easy to move in, so you can truly let loose and enjoy the celebration without any restrictions. A reception dress can be shorter, lighter, or even a two-piece ensemble that lets you dance the night away effortlessly. Plus, one thing no one talks about is how HOT it can get out on the dance floor! Having a shorter gown can be a great way to stay cool and comfortable.
Showcase Your Personal Style: Your wedding gown is undoubtedly the epitome of elegance and maybe a little bit of tradition too, which we love! On the other hand, a reception dress offers an opportunity to showcase your personal style and add a touch of modern flair. Whether you choose a sleek and sexy number, a fun and flirty cocktail dress, or a non-traditional jumpsuit, a reception dress allows you to let your unique personality shine through and truly express yourself in a way that may not have been possible with your wedding gown.
Capture Amazing Photos: Your wedding day will be filled with countless precious moments and cherished memories that your photographer and videographer will capture forever. By having a reception dress, you can create a fun and stunning visual contrast in your photos. Imagine the striking contrast of your gorgeous wedding dress against a more fun, vibrant or contemporary reception dress. These contrasting styles will add depth and variety to your wedding album, giving you even more gorgeous images to reflect upon in the years to come.
Embrace Practicality and Cost-Efficiency: Let's not forget the practical side of having a reception dress. Wedding dresses are often elaborate, detailed, and expensive. By opting for a separate dress for the reception, you can avoid potential mishaps like spills, rips, or stains on your wedding gown. These accidents can happen with the excitement and joy of the reception, but having a reception dress will give you peace of mind that you can enjoy the party without worrying about any potential damage to your cherished wedding gown.
