The most universally flattering and versatile length for a hem hits just around the middle of the knee cap. Tea length or longer usually looks best on taller brides. If you’re planning to wear a mini dress, be mindful of how much leg is exposed and make sure you can comfortably walk, sit and dance without worrying about a wardrobe malfunction.

2. CHOOSE THE RIGHT HEMLINE

If you’re self-conscious about your arms but love your décolletage, a dress with sleeves and V-neck or sweetheart neckline covers just where you need it. A short, swingy shift dress can camouflage trouble areas around the middle while showing off lean limbs. Go sleeves or strapless to show off a toned upper body.

3. PLAY UP YOUR BEST ASSETS

Select a style with a nipped in waist to show off a feminine figure. Most importantly, it’s all about balance: if you’re showing more leg, opt for a little more coverage on top or pair longer skirt if your dress is more revealing on top.

A veil is the ultimate bridal accessory, and if you’re planning to wear one with your short wedding dress, opt for a blusher or a style that hits at your elbow or higher. A short veil will complement – not compete with – your dress. You can also skip the veil altogether and add a special hair accessory instead.

Make sure your legs are silky smooth for the big day and don’t forget to moisturize. To make gams look slimmer, add a dusting of bronzer or highlighter down the center of your leg. If you’re wearing sandals or open-toe shoes, treat yourself to a pedicure or at least some fresh new polish.
