If you are all set to get hitched in Spring 2009, why not do it with a dramatic flair. We all know that the most important aspect of a perfect wedding, right after finding the Perfect Guy, of course, is to choose the perfect wedding gown. A dress that looks chic, figure-flattering, and makes you look like the star of the day (which you are, of course!!). It is definitely not easy to zero-in on your perfect dress (an understatement)!! You have a thousand little pretty details floating in your head, which all needs to fall in place and come out as an exquisite wedding gown. Traditional wedding gowns are so passe. Be an unconventional bride and you’re sure to have a much-talked about wedding! Here are a few hot wedding dress trends.

Hike up the hemline: Wear a short dress to look ultra chic and modern. Shorter wedding dresses have fitted bodices with full skirts that stop at or just above the knee. Many are strapless or have thin spaghetti straps. These dresses will be perfect for a casual, outdoor wedding and if you have the figure to carry them off.

It’s all in the detailing: Think pretty bows, flowers accents, crystal beaded bodices, and intricate lace.

Romantic ruffles: Perfect for the romantic bride. Look out for tiers of organza, tulle, feathers, or chiffon.

Two Tone Dresses: Choose a two-tone dress that has a subtle contrast, making them look special and unique. It may be something as simple as a colored sash or even complex like a layered dress.

Add a splash of color: Everything from racy red to cool blue and royal purple.
