Train Length

What is the length of a 'court' train? I do not want a big bustle/no bustle. Is this a long train? Thanks!
What length train does everyone want? Is there a new trend in trains?

Re: Train Length

I'm having a Cathedral veil. It has alittle work on it (flowers) which matches the embriodery on my gown. I didn't think i wanted it that long but i just fell in love with it and it makes me feel like a princess.

Re: Train Length

a court train is very short, I think, shorter than a chapel, but longer than a sweep.I really wanted to cut my train off bc I did not want a bustle, but I'm glad I kept it - I felt very elegant, and a lot of pics came out good with it - there is only one part of the video where I do not like how the bustle looks, otherwise I didn't even notice it.

Re: Train Length

I'm not sure what the length of my train is called, it's pretty long definitely not short. I am wearing a cathedral veil. I love the way bustles look.

Re: Train Length

My dress had a short train ( i think it was a sweep) I added another 18 inches to it...I wanted it a little longer. I will have a very small bustle.
I am getting a cathedral veil but I am taking it off as soon as I finish my first dance...I'll have a finger tip veil on for the rest of the night

Re: Train Length

HOW FUNNY that you asked this question!!! I was just thinking this, because I think my train is not long enough

I had already posted this question a few weeks ago, so I didn't post again, but I am SO GLAD YOU did!

I have a sweep train. It is VERY short compared to Cathedral or even Chapel length. I am not sure of Court length though. It's probably on the shorter side too.

My dress is a french bussle too.
