Short Wedding Dresses and Minis for Modern Brides

Whether it's because you're having a casual wedding, a mid-century inspired theme, or bohemian beach ceremony, wearing a short wedding dress is a great way to show off your individuality and style.

David's Bridal has endless options of short wedding dresses to choose from. A-line, fit and flare, and sheath silhouettes are some of the most popular styles, and we can't wait to help you find yours. Whether you're looking for a short dress that gradually floats away from the body at the waist and hips, has a fitted bodice that flares out at the skirt, or a slinky column or slip dress, we've got them all. These dresses can be worn at the knee or above the knee as a true mini bridal dress.

There is something about a short wedding dress that makes it so appealing. It's chic, sexy, and perfect for a summer or spring wedding. A shorter dress makes an excellent choice for a dance floor-friendly reception dress or a pre-wedding event dress like the engagement party, rehearsal dinner or bridal shower.

Modern brides love short wedding dresses of chiffon, silk or lace and any of a variety of necklines and sleeve styles. Short wedding dresses are perfect for non-traditional or casual weddings that have been trending in recent years. They are also perfect for a courthouse wedding or a backyard reception.
