There is nothing more romantic or feminine than lace. A wedding gown that is made of lace from head to toe is delicate and timeless. Whether you want your dress to be completely covered in lace or only have a bit of lace trim, if you love lace, it is a wonderful accent to add to any dress style.
There is a huge selection of styles and silhouettes of lace wedding gowns: the always popular a-line, an elegant empire waist, and the modern mermaid silhouette. Lace can be used as an overlay on the bodice, to create delicate cap sleeves, a scalloped lace hem, or it can be used as inlay for a train.
Adding lace to a traditional veil or mantilla is a soft and romantic detail. Different types of lace that may be included in your dress or veil are Chantilly lace, Belgian lace, or French Alencon lace. You may even be fortunate enough to find vintage lace to add to you your dress. It may be from a gown that you found at auction or a piece of your grandmother or great-grandmother's gown.
If your lace gown needs alterations, make sure that you find a seamstress who has experience with this specialized material. It is so detailed and delicate that you want hands that know how to handle the fabric making any necessary adjustments.
Lace is generally used as an overlay on another material. So if you want a ballerina skirt of tulle, you can still have a lace top on a bodice of satin. Or you can have both lace and chiffon to creat a gorgeously flowing and dreamy masterpeice.
If you want to include lace to your wedding day, but aren't sure that a gown of it is really your style, you may just want to carry a lace handkerchief. Your grandmother may have one that she carried, and then passed to your mother, who will pass it on to you. It is a wonderful tradition that will give you "something borrowed" to wear, and will still allow you a bit of lace on your wedding day!
