Spring has sprung, and so has all of the bold and creative wedding dress trends from bridal fashion week. In the midst of groundbreaking laser-cut 3D floral embellishments, feminine and sexy bare shoulder trends, and extra bridal sparkle for the enchanting bride that calls for all things glitter, we can't even begin to pick our favorite style or wedding dress designer. We are always searching for fresh and new trends that help our brides transform their style into a work of art with the perfect wedding dress. Shine on your wedding day and teach your guests #howyouglow with silhouettes, colors, and details straight from the runway!
3D Spring Floral Embroidery
Three dimensional floral embellishments and embroidery are creating a serious buzz in the bridal industry this year. Feminine passion meets decorative blossoms like never before. Who doesn't need another excuse to have fun with florals other than the ones carried on the wedding day? Thanks be to one of our favorite trailblazers, Oscar De La Renta.

Bohemian Sleeves & Capelets
Optimal for the laid-back beach, garden, or backyard bride, capelets are the trending accessory made for bohemian royalty. Free and easy sleeves made a presence on the runway, often complimented by free-spirited inspired gowns.

Guipure Lace
Timeless and classic, lace is the ever-adaptable and exciting sister that keeps us on the edge of our chairs every year with what she's changing up on the bridal scene. Brilliant Fall 2017 collections, like Berta Bridal, go beyond our wildest dreams and set the bar high with lace appliques and embellishments.
Warning: you may end up begging for one wedding dress for the ceremony and one for the reception after viewing.

Addicted to Black
Black is back with a contemporary bridal look that you will either love or hate. We love the stylistic take on power, elegance, and mystery the color black symbolizes.

Bare Skin
The non-traditional wedding trends have us swooning. As destination wedding planners, we have a soft spot for stand out, edgy looks, and deep down we are hoping all of our brides get the chance to embrace their bare skin with sexy and flirty separates or off-the-shoulder styles. Get ready to set your forever love's heart on fire.

Something Pink & Blue
Are you ready to fall in love, show stoppers? Blushing pink hues from the 2016 "rose quartz" trend extended its stay and adopted a true new trend with shades of sea and sky. Be your something blue and take the stage with innovative brides of 2017. Put a bow on it, and be a fashionista in your own right.

Perfect for a vow renewal, second marriage, or a destination wedding at a unique venue (or climate) that may require a little extra comfort. We're loving the combination of playful and professional with the styles featured below!

Feathers Appear
...When angels are near. Angelic feathered plumes dominated the runway this year with simple silhouettes to match. Give off an airy, futuristic bridal vibe with soft feather touches if you don't want to have the full fledged look.
