Tea-Length Wedding Dresses
Tuesday, 21 July 2009 10:28 am byLove a classic silhouette? How about bopping back to a simpler time, let’s say the 50’s… where the dresses are uberly flattering, feminine and FUN!
Often accessorized with closed shoes, a flower or feather fascinator, bird cage veil and short gloves, these A-line dresses are in my opinion, the epitome of femininity!
Tea-lengths have traditionally been considered a less formal style dress and often worn for destination, courthouse, garden… weddings. But should they be so pigeon-holed? Hmmm. Let’s check out a few designs…
Just loving these next few timeless, impeccable lovelies from vintage-inspired designer
Aha! Just the answer to a having your dress and wearing it too…
a full 3 layer skirt that shortens to something quite sassy for later on!
A petticoat in your favorite color doesn’t just talk… it screams your personality!
What do you think?
Are tea-lengths only for destination and informal weddings? Could you see yourself wearing one?
If so, how would you make it more formal?

Love all of these! I would definitely get fancy shoes to try to dress it up. In addition to accessories, love the bird cage!

My absolute favorite is the full length dress that transforms into a super fun short one. Where is that dress from?! I must know! It’s so fun and definitely appropriate for both the wedding and reception. I love that you essentially get two dresses in one!
