While some of us dream of wearing a princess gown decked out in lace and frills, not everyone wants a dress that mimics the shape of the cake. In fact, weddings are getting more and more casual these days. Couples are skipping the budget-busting parties and opting for courthouse nuptials or low-key backyard parties. If you're not the mile-long train 'n' tiara type, we have several suggestions for dresses that will still get all eyes on you. Just remember: you're going to be beautiful on your wedding day, whether you wear a burlap sack or a $10,000 custom Pnina Tornai gown.
