Wedding Gown Trends.

Wedding gowns are changing, for the good. They have more embellishments, details with the fabric and a splash of color. Stray away from the basic strapless gown to find something that showcases your style and personality. Add color with a bright sash that echoes the colors of your flowers or make a statement with colored shoes.

More and more brides are taking the time to find their dream dress. That means it doesn't have to be white anymore. This is your party, so rock it!

I love the layering and flowers made of fabric on the gown below. Great for a garden or back- yard party.

Try the one shoulder look below, which can be elegant.

The look below adds a pretty bow with a modern silhouettes.

Shorter dresses are becoming more and more popular as well. I love that you can wear a short dress for a daytime wedding or an evening event.


By adding silver beading to the sleeves and waist line, a short dress is instantly cute & modern. Great for a cocktail event.

Try a velvet sash instead of the classic satin to add some texture.

The pale yellow gown below is an easy way to stray away from white but still make a bold statement. Simply lovely!

If you really can't stray away from a white gown, why not get two? Wear your wedding gown for the photos and ceremony, then make an entrance by changing into a fabulous cocktail dress.
How do you know when you've found the perfect one? This may sound silly- I thought so when others said the same thing to me- but you'll just know! I tried on A LOT of dresses and even though they were all beautiful none of them felt right on.

Then I slipped into an empire waist gown with a square neckline and fell in love! It was the weirdest thing...
