Dress: As the bride you have to remember that you are probably going to be doing the most walking, running around and fretting/sweating on your big day. In addition to the warmer spring weather and sometimes even the sticky humid spring weather, it might be best to pick a dress that is going to let you move and breathe. While White is still the traditional color, other colors such as Yellow, light Blues and Pinks and even Crèmes are also good color choices. Aside from color and comfort, choices as to what design and embellishments the gown has are up to you. To get some ideas on popular dress designs you can visit these sites to get you started:
