Civil ceremony dress FAQ

What kind of dress should I wear for a civil wedding?

Choose a simple, comfortable style that suits the venue: a short or midi dress for a daytime ceremony, or a clean satin or crepe gown for a more formal celebration.

Can I wear a long gown to a civil ceremony?

Yes. Many brides choose a long but minimal gown, especially when there is a reception afterward.

How do I choose my size?

Measure your bust, waist and hips and compare them with the size chart on the gown you love. If you fall between sizes, write to info@perlanovia.com before ordering, because every gown is made to order and final sale.
