Here are 5 tips to ensure that yours is in fact a modest wedding gown:
1. Stay away from strapless or spaghetti straps. Long sleeves, short sleeves, three quarter and also cap sleeves will be fine.
2. Plunging necklines are definitely out of the question, but if the dress you have your heart set on does happen to have a very low neckline it may be easily remedied by adding some gathered tulle or lace along the edging. Done well, this can in fact enhance the look of the dress immensely as there is really no need to show quite so much cleavage in the first place.
3. Naturally, the hemline should not be short as in mini, but if you do not like a floor length hemline you might wish to go for a tea length wedding dress.
4. Open backed dresses are still considered modest, however use your own judgement or get the opinion of a good friend.
5. It may or may not seem obvious to you, but the color of modest wedding gowns you select must also come within the guidelines of modesty. Nothing too dark, definitely not hot pink, Ferrari red or black! It is however not essential that you wear white and ivory and cream are lovely colors too. Depending of personal and family tradition you may also be able to get away with wearing modest wedding gowns in a wider range of colors.
