Choosing the Right Dress for Your Beach Wedding

Choosing the Right Dress for Your Beach Wedding

The beach is an exotic and wonderful setting for a wedding. Holding a wedding on a beach requires you to follow a theme different from the conventional wedding. The bridesmaids, best man and guests are going to be dressed differently to follow the beach theme. Being the bride, you would want to have a gown that suits the venue and matches the atmosphere. But choosing a beach wedding dress requires you to use different rules than those used when taking conventional wedding attire. Below is some information that will help you choose the right wedding gown for a beach wedding.

Note your preferences

Just like every bride, you too may have a dream wedding dress. Determine what you want in your wedding dress for the beach. Note down the features you want in your wedding dress on a piece of paper in descriptive words.  Write out the different styles you want for your dress - strapless, with straps, long and flowing or short and chic. Setting a theme such as trendy, slinky, relaxed, otherworldly, romantic and liberating can also let you know what type of wedding dress you should choose.

Look at pictures of other beach wedding dresses in magazines or on the internet to get an idea of it. If you are good at sketching or drawing, it is a good idea to take a sketch of the wedding gown you like. It will help you explain the dress to the dress maker.

Getting that flattering fit

You want to look like the most beautiful person in your wedding, so choosing a dress that will compliment your best features is a good idea. Choose a wedding dress that will make you feel beautiful and also comfortable.  If your dress is too tight, or too loose, it will not look good and won’t allow you to be comfortable during the ceremony.

Choose cuts that will look flattering on your body. Experiment with sun dresses and long gowns to know which ones you like. Try on different dresses in the store to know what curves and cuts look good on you before you order your wedding dress.

Choosing the right material

Good beach wedding dresses are made of materials that are wrinkled, flowing and light. The beach is a fairly hot place, if you are considering having your wedding during the day. So choose a fabric that is breezy and not too thick. Avoid materials like brocade or velvet that can make you feel hot. Materials that are delicate, crinkly and thin such as chiffon, charmeuse and crepe are perfect for a beach setting.

Other fabrics such as illusion nets, batiste, duchesse and damask are also light and good materials for a beach wedding dress. 

Practicality of the gown

One last element to consider is the practicality of the wedding dress to suit a beach wedding. The beach is a different environment for a wedding. It has sand and water, not to mention wind. Choose a dress that will not get caught up in the wind or get spoiled by the sand or water. Dresses with long trains may not be a good idea if you are going to be walking over sand. Opting for a shorter wedding gown will let you walk freely without spoiling the dress. At the same time, a dress that fits you properly will not get caught up in the wind.

How to Fix Every Common Zipper Problem

Zippers haven't changed much since they were first invented, and neither have the problems we all have with them. From stuck zippers to teeth that just won't clinch, here's how to fix all the problems you'll run into with anything that zips.

The Zipper Is Stuck

When your zipper is stuck it feels like it's getting caught on something. The zipper might not come down at all, and until you fix it you're stuck inside your jacket.

The best way to fix this? Grab a graphite pencil and rub the pencil tip on the teeth. Try it again and it should work. If that doesn't work, it's time to move on to a lubricant. Windex is good because it's not oil-based, but you can also use bar soap, or lip balm. Start with the zipper all the way up, and slowly apply the the lubricant to the teeth. Then inch the zipper down some more, reapply, and continue doing that until the zipper comes all the way down. This is especially handy to fix a zipper stuck in the fabric itself.

The Teeth Don't Close (or They Keep Popping Open)

One of the most annoying problems with a zipper is when the teeth won't close. The problem comes from a few different reasons. Sometimes the above trick of using a pencil (or a bar of soap) will smooth out the teeth enough so they'll work again.

If that doesn't work, the slider might not be working properly. First, double-check to make sure a piece of cloth or thread isn't stuck in the zipper. Next, look at the individual teeth. If any of them are sticking out, grab a pair of pliers and move them back into place so they're all straight.

If the teeth are straight, and clean, take a look at the slider itself. Over time, the slider starts to come apart, and when that happens it stops clinching the zipper teeth together. Grab some pliers and try closing the slider together until it catches the teeth again.

As for jeans, the solution is a little more complicated. If you can, you need to remove the metal bumper at the bottom and replace it with a stitches, or just tie it off in the middle if teeth are missing at the bottom. Unfortunately, this only really works with pants where you can actually get to the bottom bumper.

If that fails, or you're working with pants where you can't get to the entire zipper run, you might need to replace the zipper completely. While you can do it yourself with some pliers, scissors, and thread, replacing the zipper on a pair of pants is only around $5-$10 at most tailors.

The Zipper Won't Stay Up

A common problem with pants zippers is a zipper that won't stay up. This can lead to all types of embarrassing situations. Unfortunately, you can't really fix this problem permanently unless you completely replace the zipper.

That said, you have two simple temporary fixes. The easiest is to slide a key ring through the zipper pull and over your pants button. This keeps the zipper up in a simple way. If you'd prefer a little more flexibility, you can also try a rubber band.

The Slider Broke Off

If the slider comes off completely, or if you need to replace the slider because it's not closing the teeth right, then you need to replace the slider. To get the slider off, use some pliers to cut it off. Once that's done, reattach the new zipper slider by sliding it back onto the teeth. That's it, you're done.

Replacing the slider is usually pretty simple, and should take only a couple minutes of time.

The Zipper Pull Broke Off

When the pull breaks off a zipper it makes it incredibly hard to zip the zipper up. The good news is that this is pretty much the easiest fix out there. You can turn a paperclip, a keyring, or even a telephone wire connectorinto a zipper pull. Just slide it through the tab on the slider and you have a new zipper pull. Sure, it's not exactly the most stylish solution, but at least you'll be able to get in and out of your clothes.
