We adore short wedding dresses as much as we love long ones, and Instagram is not short of them! While many girls might be dreaming of that organza, floor-length ball gown, others might be dreaming of freedom from layers and layers of tulle, the ability to move around their wedding with ease and a youthful, simple look. Not to mention, showing off your gorgeous legs and a killer pair of shoes! Wedding dresses have come a long way since the traditional Cinderella-style gown with the cathedral veil, from narrow, column gowns and floral headpieces to bridal flats and coloured or patterned gowns, and the length is just another thing that has been experimented with for the last number of years.

Short wedding dress

We have plenty of tips on how to wear a short dress, and we know for a fact that a bride certainly doesn't look any less bridal in a shorter skirt. Short wedding dresses particularly suit destination weddings or simply summer weddings in Ireland. They also benefit the bride when it comes to photographs and mobility throughout the day, particularly when you're not used to wearing long dresses. You always have to be aware of your train with long dresses, but short wedding dresses are far enough off the ground for you not to worry about it. They also suit petite dresses who worry about drowning in layers of tulle and organza. Take a look at our five favourite short wedding dresses from Instagram for this week's #InstaInspo
