With or without bustle on wedding gown

If you don’t want people stepping on your dress all night then yes. To me a bustle or wrist loop is completely necessary if your dress has a train.

Bustle people will trip on it step on it it could get ripped.

It would depend on your preference. How
long is your train? People are probably going to step on it. Also you could do a wrist loop and have it around your wrist while dancing or mingling.

I’m getting one because I don’t want to have to hoist it around all night and risk someone stepping on it. I also don’t want it dragging on the ground, as we are having an outdoor ceremony/reception.

I bought a second dress. The fabric of the train of my dress is really delicate, so I don't want to rely on bustling it. However, it's definitely not an option to walk around for five hours in the dress with a train with no bustle.

My dress has a chapel train and I’m having it bustled. I’m also having someone local to do it because Davids Bridal charges way to much.

View Quoted Comment Our local tailor is charging me $100, but that covers busting, adding cups and making me a wrap to wear on my arms during our ceremony.

I think they are definitely a must have if you don't want others (or yourself) stepping on your dress. I am the weird one though, and I LOVE the way that bustles look.

Yes, I have a train and don’t want it stepped on. My bustle wasn’t very expensive. It’s literally a hook and eye that my MOH will attach then pinch together so it stays tight. It probably depends on your type of dress on how much a bustle costs. Each style of dress has to be bustled a certain way.
