Even though there are no dress codes for your court wedding, it's a courthouse and a wedding so the key is to look grand but put together. Streamline your look. You don’t want to go back to your photo album and wish you had worn something more appropriate. So, here are a few things you can explore with your dress:
The neckline
Try something deliberately different from what you will wear on any other day. This can be adding some ornaments, wearing off shoulder or going extra with a turtle neck.
Court weddings are just as important as your religious and traditional marriage. So, it’s important that you look just as elegant. With so many styles to choose from, you can never go wrong. From simple to chic to just elaborately elegant, there’s really no stopping you.

Colors
Make sure that you’re not mixing all the wrong colors together. Sometimes a single block of colour is the most elegant choice. Make sure you choose very good fabric. Poor fabric can make bright-coloured clothes look tacky.

Length
Explore your options from short and long. If you’re wearing a short dress, make sure it’s not too short. This way you can be comfortable and concentrate on the moment, instead of on pulling down your dress every five minutes.

Your Accessories
As tiny as these may be, they can completely change the look of certain outfit. It’s a formal occasion so try not to wear extravagant accessories. Remember to keep it simple and in the right places to complement your dress.

Pants and Jumpsuits
You don't have to wear a dress. Pants and jumpsuits are now being made in such elegant styles for special occasions. There are even those specifically made for brides.
