Wedding Wednesday: Say Yes To A Dress With Sleeves!

Do you ever watch "Say Yes To The Dress?" I actually love the show and anything to do with weddings. If you watch, you may notice that rarely do you find a gown with sleeves. Am I the only person that wouldn't go sleeveless? Don't get me wrong, a sleeveless dress can be gorgeous, but they aren't for everyone. Even if you have fit and fabulous arms, these gowns just may convince you to cover up.

Wedding Wednesday: Honeymoon Must Haves

Wedding Wednesday: Bridal Beautiful

When it comes to wedding dress shopping, I don't have a whole lot of experience.  For myself, it was "one and done." Literally, I tried only one dress on and bought it.  I knew exactly what I wanted and found it on the first outing out.  Not wanting an entourage of opinions, I shopped alone. Needless to say, I hope my daughter doesn't follow in my footsteps.  There is a never ending choice of gorgeous gowns out there.  Here are a few that tickled my fancy!

Rivini Fantasy Gown
A fantasy wedding dress from Rivini. This whimsical gown features silk-organza-and-tulle. The bodice is trimmed with fringe. I love the mohair peplum skirt and flower belt.  Nice idea for a photo shoot.

Samuelle Couture Rosa

From the Annabella Collection. Corseted bodice in silk satin, with hand pleated silk tulle draping and full skirt. Hand made silk organza and tulle flowers with beaded detailing. So love this one!

Sareh Nouri Sawyer

"Featuring over 60 yards of silk organza in the skirt, each piece is strategically placed to create the soft textured effect seen on the ball gown." I just love the modern glamour of this gown.

Amsale Spring 2015
The "Heather" is a sophisticated but very alluring gown. A simple and form fitting crepe dress in front, is detailed to the max from behind.

From the Heart's Desire Collection of one of my favorite bridal gown designers. Is this not the most perfect beach wedding gown?

Spring 2015
These designs are fresh and modern. I am not a big lace fan, but done in a crop top with an asymmetrical skirt, now that's appealing.

Like the most beautiful nightgown.

So dramatic and sophisticated!
Karen Tran

Zahavit Tshuba Anna

A mermaid style usually makes me think of a beauty pageant.  But with this billowy train, there is no doubt that this is a modern wedding gown. Love the halter neckline! More interesting than a strapless bodice.

Because I just know my Meg will never want a white gown. This alternative would do just fine!
