4 wardrobe tips for a beach wedding in Aruba

Most girls start dreaming of their wedding dress from a young age. Your wedding dress is one of the most important pieces of clothing you will ever wear. Because of this, you want to make sure that the dress is exactly what you pictured it to be. The dress should not only be stunning, but it should also be comfortable. We already know that you will be perfect at selecting your dream dress. However, when having your wedding on a tropical island, such as Aruba, it is important to keep some things in mind. This is why we would like to provide you with some wedding dress tips!

TROPICAL BREEZE – DO’S AND DON’TS

As you might know already, Aruba is a beautiful island located in the mid-south of the Caribbean Sea. Due to this, the weather is very, very pleasant throughout the whole year. Nevertheless, having your wedding on an island also means that there is a breeze. This tropical breeze is the first point to take into consideration when purchasing your dream dress. Having a breeze going through your dress can make your dress look like it is floating. However, when it comes to wedding accessories, such as your vail, we do not want it to be in front of your face during the ceremony. Although we absolutely love a vail, it might not be the most ideal for a beach wedding. This also counts for having loose hair. We do not want your hair to cover your beautiful face. A hairstyle where your hair is pinned might be a better option.

KEEPING IT LIGHT AND FLOATY

The second point is also connected to the weather. The weather in Aruba is quite constant, with temperatures around 86°F or 30°C. Due to this, it is advisable to choose a breathable fabric for your wedding dress. Light and floaty fabrics will not only make sure that you are not too hot during your wedding, but they will also look stunning when your dress blows in the wind. Some fabrics that are perfect for a beach wedding are chiffon and charmeuse.

WITH OR WITHOUT SHOES?

The third point to take into consideration is your shoes. We all love heels, but heels and beaches do not make the perfect combination. We do not want you to trip while walking on the beach. A simple solution for this is, barefoot! After the wedding on the beach, you can get your heels on. When you decide to put on your heels after the beach wedding, make sure that the length of your dress is altered to this. Moreover, if you want to add something extra it is also possible to wear foot jewelry, such as an ankle bracelet.

NOT LOSING IT OUT OF SIGHT

Last but not least, unless you are lucky enough to live next to the beach, a beach wedding will often require a certain amount of traveling. Due to this, your dress must be easy to pack and carry on a plane. By having your dress in your hand luggage, you will be able to make sure it gets to your wedding destination safely.

Taking all these points into consideration will make sure that you can experience your day without any worries. Because your wedding dress is not just another dress. It is the dress you will remember forever.
