If you’re looking ahead to your wedding day this summer, it is not too late to find the modest wedding dress of your dreams. We have a full collection of budget-friendly modest gowns that are timeless and elegant.

Your Modest Wedding Dress Checklist for Summer

Modest wedding dresses should be cool, comfortable, and make you look your best. It should fit your style and the feel of the day, all while highlighting your natural, radiant features. Summer modest wedding gowns can be short- or long-sleeve. It may seem counterintuitive to choose long sleeve modest wedding dresses on a summer day, but there are three benefits to doing so:

  • It allows you to wear your wedding dress in the temple both during your sealing and on later visits to the temple, reminding you of your special day.
  • It keeps the sun off of fair arms and prevents sunburns.
  • It gives you extra cover on cool summer nights and in air-conditioned buildings.

Make sure that your modest wedding gown fits your budget and is made of a lightweight, breathable material that is easy to iron out and requires little maintenance during the big day. You will have more important things to think about, and you do not want to readjust and tug at your dress constantly.
