One of the most popular bridal trends right now is buying a second dress for the reception, allowing brides to groove at the reception without layers of tulle limiting their moves. However, purchasing a second dress isn’t easy on the budget and who wants to take a timeout for a costume change? Luckily, designers are creating two-in-one dresses with this demand in mind, and, with a simple skirt removal, a frothy gown transforms into a party mini.
