Go Strapless

Strapless wedding dresses are popular enough in cool weather weddings for their figure flattering fit, but they’re particularly useful for keeping cool when the sun’s blazing. Keep your neck, arms, and shoulders bare to take advantage of cooling breezes while showing off your best assets at the same time. Strapless dresses are far from a one-style affair – you can vary the neckline to create balance. For example, ruching can enhance a small bust, while sweetheart necklines draw the eye up and away from a larger bottom.

Choose Breathable Fabrics

Many traditional wedding gown styles are surprisingly lightweight, particularly when fashioned out of light, breathable fabrics. If you’re planning a summer wedding, avoid synthetic fabrics like the plague. These will weigh you down and make you sweat. Instead, opt for materials like chiffon, organza, tulle, silk, or lace. These let your body breathe on a day when you’re already more prone to breaking a sweat.

Consider Shorter Length

Many of the most iconic wedding dresses aren’t necessarily floor-length. Take a look at this infographic from Vashi to see a range of famous dresses in different lengths. Celebs including Marilyn Monroe, Keira Knightley, and Cindy Crawford all opted for dresses at or above the knee. If you’re not ready to wear a shift or prom dress in a formal setting, you could choose to change out of your main wedding dress into a shorter, breezier, and cooler dress for the reception!
