Tealength wedding dresses? Opinions?

So I'll be honest, I had never even heard of a tealength dress, let alone thought that any women got married in dresses that weren't long.

But somebody mentioned in one of my posts that she thought I'd look great in a tealength dress cause of my body type in pics I had posted(pics in my profile). I looked up some and I think theyre gorgeous, but I'm not so sure I'd pick it over a classic gown. What do you all think? Here's some that I found real quick that I like!

    I had first purchased a high-low hem dress and then bought a full length one instead. Still debating about changing into the shorter one for the reception. I feel like tea length dresses make me look short, but I'm short to begin with!

    I love dress #1 and #6. And if I had your legs I would show them off.

    I like them because they are so FUN! But I am short to begin with and that length does me no favors. I think you should try some on and see what you think!

    I looked at a few tea length dresses but the ones I actually tried on didn't feel bridal enough for me. I ended up falling in love with a longer lace cap sleeve dress. A lot of the ones you posted look much more bridal than the ones I had tried. I'd say try on all kinds of dresses and see what feels right to you.

    Did anyone notice the photoshop job on the last picture? Her legs melt into the background.

    I'm actually on the hunt for a tea length dress myself, but let me say I think you'll be able to pull it off 100x better than me! I've got a few I love that ill post when I get home I think you would like

    I love long dresses and tea length dresses so much that I got myself one of each just because I could. I personally love the first and second one very much. I got my dress from Unique Vintage, they have been amazing to work with.

    I think it really depends on your personality and style (and nice legs doesn't hurt Smiley smile My friend wore a tea length dress for her wedding in October and it was so perfect for her! She looked amazing. Out of the dresses you posted, I love the first one the best!

    I love #1 & #5! With your legs you will rock any of these dresses! I like the idea of changing into a reception dress but I'm so in love with my dress that I'm pretty sure I won't want to take it off! Can't wait to see your pics when you go try on dresses!
