The Best Halter Wedding Dresses for a Summer Wedding
Wedding season is upon us, but while your friends are all planning their wedding guest looks for all the celebrations that currently fill their social calendar, you’re looking a few months down the road at your own. You’ve searched far and wide for the perfect dress to wear on your big day but you haven’t been able to settle on the one until now. Inspired by the disco greats of the ’70s, there’s one thing you know for certain: You want a halter wedding dress.
Whether a mermaid silhouette, a slinky slip dress, or a full-blown princess moment, a halter on your wedding gown is about to make all the difference. More supportive than a strapless while also being a little more interesting than traditional shoulder straps, a halter wedding dress will make you look elegant and feel comfortable all at the same time.
From off-the-rack to custom creations, here are 20 halter wedding dresses to inspire you on your big day. You might even find your dream wedding look below.
Whether you’ve fallen in love with one of the above or you’re simply using them for a little wedding inspiration, consider a halter wedding dress when shopping for the one this season.
