15 Stunning Modest Wedding Dresses | Have Clothes Will Travel

Sticking with my last post’s theme of modest dresses… I’m sharing 15 STUNNING modest wedding dresses today. You can even order them online if you wish!

Now, my wedding wasn’t the most conventional affair. I had just a few days to get a dress and get my butt to the courthouse! So, needless to say… I never had the beautiful white dress experience! My husband and I always love to talk about one day doing a renewal of vows ceremony to make up for it. So, I’m always looking at wedding dresses for “someday.”
