A little white dress (LWD) is the perfect piece to wear when you elope. When you find the perfect LWD, you can still take social media-worthy wedding photos without the hassle of wearing, traveling with, and tailoring a large gown. The compact size easily fits into your closet, or carry on. Plus, you’ll be able to get more than one wear out of it.
