Simplicity and Elegance through blending lighter shades of natural colors.

The classic ivory donned by the bride accompanied by pastel apple green of the bridesmaids to create a lively and refreshing theme. Lightness of apple green simply enhances the uniqueness of the organdy wedding gown, without overpowering the gentleness of ivory white. The decors and cakes were of natural’s shades of milky white with subtle pastel green highlights to complete the theme.

When shopping for wedding gowns, if you feel completely out of your depth – find a bridal consultant at a wedding dress shop and put them to work for you. Pick up copies of wedding magazines and flip through them. Look for ideas that you like and ideas that you don’t. Your wedding gowns may look nothing like what is in those wedding magazines, but by going through them and cutting out pictures, you may very well discover what you don’t want – and that’s a great place to start.

Don’t be surprised if you don’t find the wedding gown you like on the first trip. Once you know what your wedding dress is going to be itwill be time to start looking into bridesmaid dresses; once again -take your time and remember, this is your day. If you decide to special order the wedding gowns, be prepared to put down a significant deposit to begin the process. It’s also worth mentioning that special orders are generally non-refundable or returnable so be sure that it’s the dress you want when you make your order.
