Designer Wedding Gown Brides

What type of bustle would you get for this wedding gown (mermaid/trumpet style)?
This is my dress http://www.brides.com/fashion/dresses/gallery/wedding_dresses/vendor/designer/demetriosilissa/detail/118358?offset=45#_chip=2 I know it is not everyones style but I love it. Later this week I am going to get my alterations done including a bustle. I am sure they will show me some suggestions when I go in but I am looking for some ideas and opinions on how you bustle a dress like this. I do not know why that description calls it a sweep train because it is actually pretty long as you can see from the picture.
What about those little loops you put around your wrist and carry your train with? Are those any good?
I am also having a mermaid style gown, because I HATE the look of bustles for the "puffier" styles of skirts (the ones that sit on your butt and look ridiculous), I actually love a mermaid style bustle, I think it actually adds to the look of the back of a gown like this.
My gown is having a relatively short train (about 3 feet long) and my mom (whose is making my dream gown) is just going to put little hooks on the train and all the back of my knees (where the flare of the skirt will start). So the train will lay in neat pleats at the back of the dress, hanging from the back of my knees. We are also adding a little pink velvet bow (my dress is an empire waist with a pink velvet sash) to cover the hooks that will clip on after the dress is bustled, kind of like a little bustle "clip" that will hide the hooks at the top (behind my knees). Unfortunately since I designed my dress I don't have pictures online or anything to show you an example, but it is a fairly popular way to bustle a mermaid style gown.
Good Luck!
