It's All About the Back

Every bride wants to make a striking entrance but what about the view while standing at the alter and saying "I do"?  Today's bride wants to wow from every angle and designers are coming up with some fantastic ways to play up the back of your gown.  Key-hole backs, deep plunging backs and backs covered with sparkle and lace are just a few of the gorgeous options.  

Champagne, oyster and gold - Oh my!

Today's bride has lots of options, especially when it come to the color of her gown.  Here are just a few of the beautiful wedding dresses that are available in more than white and ivory.  Choose from champagne, gold, baby pink and oyster and find your perfect dress!

Style Inspiration - Grace Kelly

From movie star to royalty, Grace Kelly's real life is straight out of a fairy tale.  Her wedding dress is still inspiration today for designers who design for brides that want to feel like a Princess on their wedding day.  

Style Inspiration - Audrey Hepburn

When you look in the dictionary under the word "elegant" I always expect to see a photo of Audrey Hepburn.  Always fashionable, timeless and perfectly styled.  If Audrey Hepburn is your style inspiration remember these two things.  First, pick a dress that is simple and classic in it's shape. Second, pick one or two accessories that are minimal yet eye catching.  

Style Inspiration - Katharine Hepburn

Today's Style Inspiration is Katharine Hepburn.  A Hollywood fixture for more than 60 years.  She starred in various movies from comedy to drama.  She was fiercely independent long before it was in style.

Favorite story about your day:  "It was amazing to hear everyone tell me how perfect my dress fit me and my personality.  It was meant for me to have that dress, it absolutely fit me like a glove."

Advice for brides about to go wedding dress shopping:  "Don't ever think your dream dress couldn't be the one, try on something you would never think you would like, it just might surprise you.  Also when you cry like a little girl when you look in the mirror for the first time in a dress you are in THE ONE!  Don't look back and don't doubt your heart, you made the right choice:-)
