Need some great ideas for Casual Beach Wedding Dresses?

So what makes great casual beach wedding dresses?

• Look for a light, airy dress that just seems to flow.
• A strapless dress will be cooler than a long sleeve dress.
• Short hem lines are more casual in nature. They will not drag in the sand and ruin the bottom of your dress. They will however, show off your beautiful legs.
• Choose a light weight fabric that will keep you cooler than a heavy satin fabric.
• Short, casual beach bridal dresses tend to be less expensive than traditional, long gowns with fancy trains.
• Casual wedding dresses are easier to transport and take less space if you're traveling to your destination.
• Informal dresses are less expensive than traditional, formal gowns. If you are shopping in a bridal store, let the sales person know that you are looking for an informal beach type dress and be sure to tell the sales person the price range of your budget.

What your guests don't realize is that you have been engaged in intense planning for over a year and you have decided on a beach theme because you love the beach and don't want a formal extravaganza.

It stands to reason that you are looking for a casual dress to coordinate with your beach theme.

Casual dresses are well suited for a beach theme and they are no less stunning than a long traditional gown.  Get some ideas for your perfect dress by looking at the pictures below.
