Does anyone make long sleeve wedding dresses anymore?
December 23rd, 2009 | 
Author: I am planning a winter wedding and I am having trouble finding a long sleeved dress. Does anyone make one anymore. It’s not that I’m the most modest woman ever I just want to be covered up. We are getting married in a church and I think I should not be showing it all off.

Try Davidsbridal.com. They have a large selection of gowns which are not too pricey. They’re not high-end designer gowns, though. Mostly just obscure brands.

Its pretty hard to find nice looking long sleeved gowns. I don’t know why but so many designers seem to think that long sleeve equates to wanting a plain and modest dress, when some brides want the dress and pretty sleeves to go with it.
Here are a few that I thought were nice looking and not totally bland:

don’t rule out the option of finding a nice dress and adding a bolero for the church so you are more covered up. Thats what I did and it worked out GREAT.
Check out dresses for LDS brides. Also dresses for Renaissance Faires are long sleeved. You can design your own and have it custom made by a local seamstress if you can’t find anything you like.
Here are a couple I found:

Looks like you got lots of suggestions on long sleeve dresses, even if some of them aren’t very pretty. There are religions that require the skin to be covered, or churches that do. I’ve seen lovely faux fur (white, or course) small jackets that can be worn for the ceremony, then removed later if you’d be comfortable doing that.
Sure, they can be found – takes some looking, depending upon where you are. I wanted one, and just was lucky enough to find one I loved at a local boutique in a neighbouring city.
