Brides often choose to wear two outfits on their special day – one for the ceremony and one for the reception. A ceremony dress that hinders movement does not allow you to dance the night away at your reception. In order to feel comfortable, choose light or elastic fabrics and simple styles. The most popular clothes for party brides are shorter dresses. We've compiled a selection of party dresses for the bride that meet all the latest wedding trends in 2022.
