There's nothing more beautiful to me then the sight of a bride walking down the isle with a long train behind her. While I like the shorter dresses for beach weddings, there's nothing like yards and yards of satin to make a bride feel lovely. Here are five long wedding dresses for summer. They'll make you do a double take.
Taffeta
The Taffeta
Ball Gown with floral detail has spaghetti straps with a sweetheart
neckline and a sweep train. Even though this is a longer dress, its lightweight
fabric prevents sit from being too heavy. Buy this dress for $299.00. The dress
comes in sizes two to sixteen in either white or ivory. For this dress, a
longer elbow length veil is perfect.
Try
the 1 Tier veil with Ribbon Edge for $79.00. Add additional shine with silver
sandals for $55.00. This shoe has a three-inch heel and comes in sizes
five through nine. Get all three of these lovely pieces at David's Bridal.
Chiffon
This slim
chiffon dress is like a waterfall of fabric. The Davinci dress has a
strapless sweetheart neckline and sweep train. This dress comes in sizes two
through thirty. Get an extra foot of train for another $100.00.
Choose
between ivory and white. The smaller amount of fabric for this dress make it
perfect for summer. Have it be yours for $441.00. Make this look appear truly
summery with flowers in your hair. Use real flowers or try this jeweled
delphinium flower. This white flower is $32.00. Get both of these at
bestbridalprices.com.
Style
BG077 has an organza train and a corseted back. The strapless dress
consists of organza, lace and satin. The organza overlay flows behind the dress
in a substantial train. However, the lace and organza fabric makes this dress
airy for summer.
The
dress comes in ivory, light ivory and white. In addition, sizes include 2- 26W.

veil for $22.99 to go with this dress. Buy it at weddingbedazzle.com.
Lovely details
The
delicate lace cap sleeves are the stars of style BG010. This satin dress
features an asymmetrical front drape and semi-cathedral train. In addition, the
gown is adorned with sequins, various beads, crystals and pearls. The dress
comes in ivory, light ivory and white. $247.00 is a small price to pay for this
beauty. This dress is available at inweddingdress.com.
Pair
this frock with a low-heeled peep toe. This pair, from David's Bridal has
a rhinestone detail and comes in sizes five-twelve. Also, there are wide widths
for sizes seven-twelve. This shoe would look good with all of the dresses in
this guide.
The
bow at the waist of the dress and the satin "pick up" skirt make this
wedding dress irresistible. A lace bodice and buttons in the back round out
this pretty gown. Choose between ivory and white for the dress. Additionally,
choose between white, ivory and a metallic "platino" color for the
bow.
Currently,
the dress is on sale for $567.00 at bestbridalprices.com. Top off this look
with a tiara from David's Bridal. The mid-sized tiara sparkles with a
lot of crystals. It costs $199.00.
