Wedding Wednesday: The Best Of Bridal 2016

(Inslee Designs)

Why would anyone take an entourage of judgemental bridesmaids to a salon, when you can shop for your gown in PJ'S from home? Last night I had the best time doing just that. The Spring 2016 Bridal Shows have happened, and the looks are lovely. There was plenty of bare skin, lots of sheerness, a bit of bohemian, and both grand and sleek silhouettes.  When it comes to bridal gowns, my taste leans anywhere but traditional. If you appreciate the unique, something sophisticated, or a fun factor, this bridal blog post is for you. 




HERE: 18 Gorgeous Gowns


Claire Pettibone Gothic Angel
If I was getting married today, the first place I would look is Claire Pettibone.  Her designs  are ethereal, certainly not traditional, yet still very bridal. The details on this gown are gorgeous.


Claire Pettibone Notre Dame
Long sleeved French sky blue and black lace with stained glass beaded illusion back. For the bride who is into fashion more than looking like a bride.



Romona Keveza
Painterly pretty.


Luisa Beccaria Bridal Look #19
I am usually not a lace girl, but this gown is different. Truly beautiful. Love the sheer bodice and sleeves. Made in Italy.


Honor Ihlen Gown
Made from silk Mikado. I loved the sheer bib bodice and cut away shoulders. Everything else stunningly simple. This trunk show ends in 12 days


Vera Wang Spring 2016 Look #6
Vera managed to create a gown that is both pretty and edgy. Bows are usually too sweet for me, but this oversized ribbon is special.


Ines De Santo Spring 2016
An edgy look for a non traditional bride.


Monique Lhuiller Spring 2016
This dress can make fairytales come true.


Houghton
I can't help but love the Bohemian vibe of this dress with mixed textures. It's just layered with style!
Houghton NYC


Oscar de la Renta
One of the best short bridal choices I have seen.  That collar is everything!
In Style


Jesus Peiro
Oh my! To be able to add my favorite color, black, to a wedding look would have been fabulous! The headpiece and collar create the wow factor.

Jenny Packham Titania
Elegant with a fashion forward cape and a bit of beautiful bling. Lovely!


Angel Sanchez Spring 2016
Peek-a-boo looks were everywhere on the runways. I don't totally love the trend, but it works with this dress. The little shrug is ever so glam.


Angel Sanchez NS1610
Just fabulous as a reception outfit or your bridal look for a more casual event.


Angel Sanchez NS 1609
So much style. I adore this dress!


Costarellos Trunk Show
Here's that peek of skin again. The two piece look for Spring 2016 is a major trend.  Do click through to see the beautiful bead work up close. Maybe on the beach? The trunk show ends in 12 days.
Moda Operandi


Kelly Faetanini
And for my grand finale....This dress just makes me feel like dancing!

Wedding Wednesday: Down The Aisle With Alternative Style

(Via Inslee Designs)

Do you enjoy shows like "Say Yes To the Dress?"  I enjoy watching the process of gown shopping. I have to say, however, I have yet to see a dress that I would have worn or can see my daughter wearing.  Of course, the traditional wedding gown can be gorgeous for some. But if you don't dream about looking like a princess, can't imagine wearing a veil, prefer couture to bridal style, or are having a small private affair, there are alternatives.  Wear what makes you feel the best version of yourself on your special day. 

Here's How To Get Down The Aisle In Alternative Style




Vera Wang
Even Vera realizes that brides come in all sizes and types. These are for a girl with an edge. From her Spring 2014 Collection.

Oscar de la Renta 
Bow Gown
Every bit as dressy as a traditional gown, sans a veil. I would add gold shoes and a touch of gold in my hair. Gorgeous!

Avalia Dress
Channel your inner Audrey Hepburn with this sophisticated sheath. Don't you love the gloves with it?

Claire Pettibone Raven
I was the brave soul that wore a black floral dress to the Senior Prom. So why wouldn't I walk down the aisle in this beauty? Black tulle embroidered with pink and red roses over silver sequins and pearl silk with long train. And for the less adventurous bride, it comes in ivory.

With a look this fabulous, "alternative" is awesome! This is a great pick if you are getting married in a hurry. It is a rental! Once you see the details of the rented and the original price, you just might be sold on the idea.

Now this is unique! If you just don't wear dresses, this is your answer for your special day.
