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: 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

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.
