Selecting her wedding dress is one of the most important decisions a woman makes: it is a symbol of the commitment she is going to make, it is the one part of her wedding that everyone will look for and remember, and it often represents the fulfillment of what she has dreamed of since she was a little girl. What's in and what's out as far as wedding styles are concerned is largely a matter of personal choice: what's most essential is that you feel comfortable and beautiful in whatever you wear. Here are 5 great reasons to choose a modest wedding dress for your big day.
1. A modest wedding dress flatters every figure
Most of us who are not celebrities and cannot afford the services of a personal trainer have less-than-perfect bodies. Therefore, dresses that show a little less skin are likely to be flattering on everyone.
2. A modest wedding dress means worry-free fashion
We all remember the embarrassment of Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction:" just imagine if such a thing were to occur at your wedding in front of all of your (and your husband's) relatives? Low-cut wedding dresses may be the rage right now, but if you wear one you might spend too much of your time thinking about keeping it up instead of concentrating on making your vows and enjoying your day.
3. A modest wedding dress reflects the importance of your vows
If the idea of getting married in a white bikini on a beach or going through the wedding drive-thru in Las Vegas turns you off, then you probably value the importance of the vows you are going to make, whether you are a religious person or not. Wearing a modest dress will allow your inner beauty to shine through along with your outer beauty, reminding everyone in attendance that it's the commitment that matters today and not just the dress.
