Short wedding dresses are in right now, and I can see why. Though my girlfriend commented that they showed a bit too much leg, I felt that they would have been a blessing at my wedding. Short dresses allow for more freedom to dance and aren’t as confining as long ball gowns, and I bet they keep brides cool in the summer. What do you think? Do these dresses come up short for being too casual, or are they just right?
