Many of the most popular bridal gown styles are very sophisticated. That can be great, but for the bride in her early 20s, a very sophisticated gown maybe just feel too mature. These are some ideas for wedding dresses which will feel very appropriate for a younger woman, yet be grown up enough for a bride.
There are several directions in which a young bride can opt to go with her wedding dress. The fairy princess style is always pretty for a young lady. Some of the more princessy styles which look silly on older brides are absolutely divine for a bride in her early 20s. A full tulle skirt is especially beautiful, sometimes with a delicately beaded bodice with spaghetti straps. Add crystal chandelier earrings and a dainty tiara to feel like a real princess bride.
If the princess style is not your taste, consider a simple dress in a slender A-line style. The great thing about this silhouette is that you may be able to find a white or ivory dress from a special occasion or bridesmaid line, rather than having to spend more on something from a bridal collection. That would be ideal for the young bride on a budget. Add a fingertip length veil with a ribbon edge and a fabric flower in your hair to complete the effect. When your wedding gown is very simple, take care to choose bridesmaid dresses which are even simpler so that your attendants do not upstage you. Tea length dresses in your favorite color would be a very nice complement to a simple A-line wedding dress.
1950's style wedding gowns have been very popular recently, and they would be an excellent choice for a younger bride. The look of the '50s is feminine and a tad bit demure. You will look like an ingenue from a classic movie! A sweetheart strapless neckline is beautiful, especially when paired with a soft skirt in tulle or lace. A waist length veil looks adorable with the natural waistlines of '50s inspired gowns. Break up the period effect with a surprising detail, such as a pair of baby blue shoes instead of white bridal pumps.
Shorter dresses can easily be carried by brides in their early 20s. After all, they will have the great legs for a short dress! Short bridal gowns can go a lot of different ways, from charming 1950s inspired styles to chic modern dresses to cute A-line babydoll styles (very 1960s, especially with a flyaway veil). Just take care to select a style which is either too cutesy or too sophisticated. A young bride should attend to look fresh and dewy, yet still old enough to be getting married. A short dress is ideal for a City Hall wedding, a beach wedding, or a casual wedding at home.
A final piece of advice for a young bride: always think about your wedding pictures when you choose your bridal gown. Women in their early 20s tend to be very adventurous when it comes to fashion, but you will be looking at those wedding pictures for decades to come. Choose a wedding dress style which suits the young lady you are today, yet one which you will also look back on fondly when you are an older more sophisticated woman.
