Fall and Winter Wedding: Bridesmaid Dresses with Sleeves

Bridesmaid dresses with sleeves are ideal for colder weather weddings or just to provide your maids with a bit more modesty and coverage. Bridesmaid dresses with sleeves not only flatter arms and class up the ensemble, they keep ladies warm in cool weather. Which type of sleeves will you choose? Modest bridesmaids dresses look demure, feminine, and are also figure friendly. Brides also need to choose a sleeve style for their fall or winter wedding. This season, several designers created wedding bridesmaid dresses featured all types of sleeves - from barely-there cap or flutter sleeves to full on long sleeves. Check out our favorites here.
Basic short sleeves are perfect for spring and summer weddings in a casual, outdoor setting. Mainly featured on cotton t-shirt dresses, these sleeves stick with a modest look but provide slight coverage and lots of comfort in warmer weather.

What is the Rehearsal Dinner?

When is the rehearsal dinner held?

A rehearsal dinner is a pre-wedding ceremony in North American tradition, usually held after the wedding rehearsal and the night before the wedding ceremony.

What is the purpose of the rehearsal dinner?

The purpose of the rehearsal dinner is for the relatives and friends of the bride and groom to meet and have a good time. The couple generally takes this opportunity to thank everyone who has put work into helping them with the wedding preparations.

Who is invited?

The guests generally include the couple to be married and others who form the wedding party, but may also include extended family and out-of-town guests. Any children of the bride and groom from a previous marriage are invited, unless they are too young. Parents of young attendants, such as a flower girl or ring bearer, are also included. If single members of the wedding party were invited to bring a date to the wedding, then it's kind to include the date at the rehearsal dinner.

What happens during the dinner?

The focus of the dinner is for the wedding party and the two families to relax and enjoy each other's company, and to celebrate the bride and groom and the joining of two families. Sometimes, this will be the first time that the two families meet. Activities generally include toasting (or roasting) and the presentation of small gifts for those who have helped plan the wedding. It's important for the couple and their parents to make sure that everyone is introduced to each other.

Who host?

The rehearsal dinner costs are traditionally incurred by the parents of the groom. However, modern traditions allow for either the parents of the bride or the parents of the groom to incur these costs.

How to Deal With Problem Bridesmaids

They’re supposed to be there for you through gown fittings, crazy in-laws, and crazier grooms to be. But sometimes, even your best support systems can buckle under the strain. Every bride needs help on how to deal with disgruntled bridesmaids. From bridesmaid dress distress to gripes about expenses, keeping a bridal party happy can be as demanding as the wedding planning itself.

A bridesmaid says “heck no!” to a dress you love.

If it’s not to late, work out a compromise. Sure it’s your wedding, but it’s their self-esteem (and probably their cash, too), and you need these ladies to love you long after you become Mrs. Married. Tell them you’ll pick the color and then let them choose the style. If a bridesmaid is being unreasonable (make sure it’s not you being too demanding), let her know how important your vision is and that you will work together to find a dress that will make you both happy.

You hear grumbles about expenses.

Be considerate. It’s likely that your maids will only wear this dress for a few hours, so don’t make them hock their car to be a part of your wedding. Brides are not required to pay for the dresses, but if you want to spring for something pricey, consider adding it on to your own budget or paying for half. Try to mitigate expenses elsewhere too -- if they’re buying the wedding bridesmaid dresses, don’t make them buy jewelry and shoes too.

Last-ditch effort.

It’s never easy, but sometimes when all else fails or when something explosive has happened, the only alternative is to ask a bummer bridesmaid to step down. There really is no right way to do this. Good friends will understand the decisions you have to make. People who’ve turned out not to be such good friends are better weeded out, anyway.

On The Day

Arrival
It's up to you to get the groom to ceremony on time--especially if the bachelor party was held the night before.
Ceremony
The best man stands next to the groom, holds the bride's ring until it's time for the groom to put it on her finger and escorts the maid of honor during the closing procession.

During the Wedding Reception

Speech
Give a toast to the couple and make a speech. The best man is famed for giving the first speech at the wedding reception, and he should spend time crafting and rehearsing it.
Dance
Dance with the bride, the maid of honor and the bridesmaids. This is one best man duty a lot of men like. Once the new Mr & Mrs have had their first dance it is traditional for the Best Man to dance with the chief bridesmaid. Even if you're not a dancing man make sure you help to break the ice, make everyone feel at home and get the party into full swing.

Is there are mountain of gifts building up on a table somewhere? There's possibly far too many for the bride and groom to carry on their own so with the help of the other groomsman and bridesmaids help carry any wedding gifts to the bridal suite or waiting car. Finally, the best man is also responsible for packing the groom's suitcase for the honeymoon and organizing a getaway car for the airport.
