Trains are an elegant and flirty style that will never go out of style! Although more and more brides are opting for short trains, or none at all. Wedding dress trains are beginning to trend again, meaning it’s time that we address how to handle your wedding dress train. Here are my top tips that you will want to save for your wedding day!

Practice Walking

With a wedding dress train comes drama. And we want to keep the drama with the flow of the gown, and not the bride falling over herself! To avoid tripping over your own wedding dress practice! Practice walking around in your wedding dress with your wedding shoes one. Consider how the extra fabric slows you down a bit when taking turns. As well as how much space your gown will take up.

Bustle Your Train

Bustling your train will not eliminate the weight on the back of your dress, but it will prevent your train from being stepped on. Walking down the aisle or entering your reception is a breeze! However, when you begin to mingle with your guests your train is at risk for being trampled over. BE sure your seamstress adds a bustle and shows you how to use it before the big day!

Find Helpful Hands

Enlist one of your bridesmaids to be your bathroom buddy. Trust me, you will need the help! Having a wedding dress train means that you will have a lot of fabric. And the last thing you want is for any part of your dress being flushed down the toilet. So grab a close friend to help hold all that fabric while you take care of business.

Finding ways to handle your wedding dress train before the day of your wedding will make you day so much more enjoyable. Take these tips into your wedding day for a more comfortable day! And for more helpful planning and tips, check out our blog!
