This is probably the most exciting part of planning your wedding, with so many choices and latest trends available it’s a mind field of information to find the perfect dress. Whether your chosen style is Minimal, Halter neck, Gold & Metallic’s, Princess or Lace there are a few other factors to consider when marrying in Cyprus which you may have thought of already.
Climate
Certain dresses are more suited to the time of year your to marry. It goes without saying that the fuller Princess style dresses will be more suited to spring and autumn. Minimal and more fitted styles will be more adaptable in the summer months.
If you have chosen a fuller dress I would highly recommend a netted skirt with a hoop underneath, this will help you to walk more freely and avoid your dress getting caught around your legs. We want to look stunning on our Wedding day but nature can deliver unwanted gifts our way.
Firstly you can’t help but to perspire and certain patches occur where you don’t want them too, avoid going for a tight fitted dress or where a light fabric slip underneath. Your body will swell slightly in the heat, this is completely normal so allow yourself a little room.
Fabric
You don’t have to forgo the latest trends to be more comfortable, certain natural fabrics will help to keep you cooler during the day.
Think about the fabric and how easy it will travel in your suitcase or dress box, don’t worry if you have chosen a material that has a tendency to crease easily. You can have your dress steamed when you arrive in Cyprus.
Location
Think about the Venue you have chosen and where you will be taken for your intimate photos together. It can be a very disheartening feeling when you have a mountain of stairs to walk down to meet your Husband to be and your chosen style is fitted with a fishtail.
Sunsets are amazing here in Cyprus and your photographer will take you and your new husband away for a few romantic pictures. At this point elegance goes out the window, in order to get the perfect shot you may be asked to climb a few Rocks or walk along a Sandy Beach. This is when a very smart loop on your dress will come in handy; you can hook the back of your dress up and allow you to move around more freely.
You might be thinking “what a palaver, all that fuss for a sunset photo” but it will definitely be worthwhile, you’re photographs will be beautiful.
