Ceremonies Through The Seasons

As the seasons change so do the desires of our brides & the look and feel of their individual weddings. So we put together a few "inspiration boards" which piece together & highlight different aspects of each season.

Winter:

The cozy romance of winter allows for deep warm colors like this decadent Merlot to maintain liveliness and color in a season of otherwise cold colors. The black tux & enchanting ballgown allow for a formal affair, even in the dead of winter. 

 

Gown: Sottero & Midgley "Jerrica" Bridesmaid: Jim Hjelm Occasions Style # 5414 in Merlot.

Spring: 

As the snow melts and the trees begin to bud, so does the look and feel of your wedding. The beautifully detailed lace on a dress like this Maggie Sottero will give your wedding a look of fresh elegance. Gorgeous pastels will be set off by the deep navy, but will still appear fresh and springy. Shake off those winter chills with this bright spring look. 

 

Gown: Maggie Sottero "Boston" Bridesmaid: Jim Hjelm Occasions Style # 5357 in Blush & Rose

Summer:

Keep things easy breezy in the hot summer sun in a lightweight dress like this Maggie Sottero slip dress. Guys can ditch the jackets & colors should be bright & joyous like lavenders, bright pinks, and oranges!

 

Gown: Maggie Sottero "Lark" Bridesmaid: Jim Hjelm Occasions Style # 5413 in Lavender & Rose

 

 

Fall:

The rich tones in the Mocha colored lining of this Maggie Sottero wedding gown pair perfectly with the rich jewel toned Jasper colored bridesmaid dresses. The sunflowers add a seasonal accent of color, while the light neutral grey of the tuxes keeps things from getting too heavy.  

 

Gown: Maggie Sottero "Lucinda" Bridesmaid: Jim Hjelm Occasions Style # 5376 in Jasper

Wedding Worthy Red Carpet Looks

During this past week's Emmy Awards we couldn't help but notice a lot of major red carpet looks resembled some of our favorite new dresses! Check out our favorites:

Claire Danes: The backless look on both of these dresses not only wows on the red carpet, but down the aisle as well! (Mori Lee Style #6784)

Sophia Vergara: Sophia was "Va-va-voom" on the red carpet, you'll make jaws drop on your special with this fitted shape & touch of sparkle. (Sottero & Midgley "Lola")

January Jones: The exceptional weave in the fabric turns the simple & flattering ballgown shape into something to be remembered for its uniqueness. (Mikaella Style #1858)

Taylor Shilling: The drapey bodice & dainty beading on both of these looks speaks to a style of effortless elegance. (Maggie Sottero "Gemma")

Camilla Alves: The unique & stunning embroidery detailing set off with sheer detailing makes both of these dresses breathtaking show stoppers. (Mori Lee style #5262)

Uzo Aduba: It's all about the dramatic train & effortless elegance with both of these clean looks, you'll be a natural beauty! (Sottero & Midgley "Viven")

Mayim Bialik: The ballgown shape in lace is a new way to amp up your lace, & the bolero makes for a bit more modest option that can be taken off after the ceremony! (Mikaella Style #1857)
