Many brides shudder when the words “two-dress bride” are brought up in conversation. It’s usually applied to cases where a decision was too hastily made on that first dress and/or the shopping continued. (By the way, just… don’t. You’ll always find another dress if you keep shopping!!!) However, one reasonable exception does exist… when it refers to a more practical option to back up the full-length gown. In fact, we can’t think of any reason NOT to have a second, short dress! By the way, we have a lot. Yes, a lot.
