Registry office & civil wedding dresses

A registry office or civil wedding dress needs to be easy to wear: a short, straight or A-line cut, a short train or none, sometimes convertible. These are also the dresses brides most often wear again, for a second ceremony or for the evening.

What makes a dress right for the registry office?

Three practical criteria. A cut you can walk in: short, straight or A-line. A short train or none, because a registry office and its front steps don’t leave much room. And a dress you can get into without help. Every design here meets all three.

Convertible designs

Some dresses can be worn two ways: add or remove a detachable skirt or sleeves to switch from a civil look to a ceremony look. It’s the most economical solution when your civil ceremony and your celebration take place on different days.

Wearing your dress again

Short and straight styles without a train can be worn again, which you can’t say of a ball gown with a cathedral train. If that matters to you, start with our short wedding dresses and our flowing, straight styles.
