The dress I'm leaning towards doesn't have a train (none at all, not even a short one), but I've also fallen in love with those ornate lace-trimmed cathedral-length veils. Would it be weird to wear such a long veil without also having a train on my dress? I need brutal honesty...the last thing I want is for people to think "Hmm, that's odd" when I'm walking down the aisle.
From a practicality standpoint it's kind of the best of both worlds...I'd get the ooos and ahhs about the train during the ceremony, but then I don't have to worry about bustling it up for the reception. But who cares about practicality if it's going to look bad (#girllogic haha)!
