White Modest Lace Wedding Dress

If the bride is reserved and she just wanted a discreet wedding, she would probably opt for a modest wedding dress. This kind of wedding dress is very simple and not something flashy or that shows a lot of skin. It’s not required to be traditionally white but light colors will do as long as it doesn’t draw to much attention.

A modest wedding dress usually has sleeves that can either be short or long. Nowadays, lace materials are used for fitted long sleeves. Sleeves are usually paired with a jewel neckline that resembles that of a t-shirt. Necklines for a modest wedding dress are more likely to cover the neck and chest area such as the boat neck (also called the bateau neckline or the Sabrina).

Modest Plus Size Wedding Dress

This kind of neckline runs horizontally through the collarbone to the shoulder points. A sweetheart neckline where it arcs over the breast resembling the top of a heart will also look conservative but elegant when covered with lace.

Designs like beadings, patchworks layers are minimal which can also imply that this kind of wedding dress is affordable. This in turn would accentuate the bride herself. It will most likely let the bride glow rather than draw the attention to the gown. With the proper carriage, confidence and smile, this wedding gown will be simply beautiful.
