Fashion Friday: Ruffled Trends

 One of the best parts of my job is finding all of these gorgeous gowns to bring you some inspiration for dressing yourself for your wedding day.  I've been watching the shows from Bridal Market week in New York for the past couple of weeks and one of the biggest trends I've noticed is ruffles!  I am absolutely LOVING all of the flowing ruffled gowns!!  Whether it is a form-fitting mermaid or A-line, or a full ball-gown, they are all gorgeous!!  Here are some of my favorites for you to drool over.  Do you have a favorite?  Let me know.  This gown is by Justin Alexander.

Theme Thursday: Blue Winter Wonderland

As I'm sitting here thankful that my heat is on, I decided to take a look at some of the trends we saw in the Bridal Market runways and what we are seeing more and more in weddings today. 

On the runway we saw a lot of lace.  I'm so happy this is making the comeback that it is!!  Lace is such a romantic fabric that it just makes sense to use it for a wedding gown...

What I'm seeing a lot in weddings is some fun and creativity with lighting and color.  Every wedding I did this last summer had colorful lighting going on!  It was great to be able to use that element to create a romantic, seasonal, or elegant atmosphere. 

For this Theme Thursday I took some of my favorite trends and mixed them with with some important elements to help create the "feel" you want for your guests.  And, since it is the first day of November and winter is right around the corner, I'm bringing you a very blue and silver

Winter Wonderland.

Stay warm my friends!
