WHITE DRESS BRIDES - CARLEY & ELISE

This is a doubly exciting White Dress Bride post because both of these absolutely beautiful brides found their dream dress here at The White Dress Boutique. Carley & Elise are two of the kindest and most fun ladies you could meet and they are so in love and care deeply about each other. It was so fun helping both of them find their perfect dress for their perfect day, and we are so glad we could be a part of it!

Carley's Pronovias dress featured soft lace and a tulle layer underneath that peeked out of the bottom on the front. The bodice of her dress had a V-neckline and elegant scoop back that were both embellished with gemstones. Elise's Enzoani sheath dress had an all-over delicate lace pattern and sheer coverage on the front and back of the bodice. We also customized Elise's veil by hand stitching the same lace from her dress onto the edge of a fingertip length English net veil.

No two bodies are built the same, and luckily there are many types of wedding dresses so you can find the right one for your unique body. We delve a little bit into what silhouettes work for which body types in our Let's Talk About the Dress - Silhouettes post, but our friends over at Enzoani have put together a more in depth guide about which dress shapes are going to be the most figure flattering for different body shapes.

Head over to Enzoani's Insider Blog for their tips and suggestions, and then stop by the White Dress Boutique to try some of the suggested silhouettes on for yourself. And, hey, you never know what may or may not look good on you, so go ahead and give different styles a try. We'd love to help you find a dress that makes you feel beautiful. 

WEDDING TREND TUESDAY - COPPER

Move aside silver and gold, copper is the metallic of the moment. Copper is an understated alternative to traditional metallics, and complements a variety of themes and color palettes. It's easy to incorporate copper elements on your special day, from small, decorative touches like centerpieces or place cards, to larger focal points, like the cake or accessories for the bride or groom. However you choose to use copper, it's a sure fire way to make your day shine!

2015 IN REVIEW

It's been a great year for us here at The White Dress Boutique. We've been privileged to help over 100 beautiful brides find their wedding gowns this year, and it has been an absolute blast. As we bid a fond farewell to 2015, we thought we would look back on some of the highlights from this blog and from our Pinterest page.

First, a look at our top blog posts of 2015:

1. 20 Memorable Movie Dresses

   

The romance of movies and weddings go hand in hand. From the early days of cinema to modern motion pictures, the wedding has played a large part in movies and story telling. This post highlighted twenty of the most memorable wedding gowns from films from the past 90 years. 

2. Let's Talk About the Dress: Neckline

Our Let's Talk About the Dress series of posts offered some insight into the different parts of a wedding gown that brides need to know and think about when finding the right dress for them. The neckline of a dress is definitely something to consider, so hopefully this one was (& will continue to be) helpful.

3. Wedding Trend Tuesday - Metallics

Our very first Wedding Trend Tuesday post is also our most viewed. Wedding Trend Tuesday posts highlight a current wedding trend and are full of beautiful photos (thanks, Pinterest!) of that trend. Look for many more trends in 2016!

4. Our New Blog

Aww, our first post... We started this blog at the end of May to engage with, entertain, and inform our customers and world wide web friends. We hope that you have enjoyed it as much as we have and that you will continue to visit us here next year for more tips, trends, and tricks - and fun!

5. Wedding Dresses Through Time

We like to share. Sharing is good. So, we shared this amazing infographic that illustrator Shireen Baker created for Fairmont. We will be on the lookout for more super cool things to share with you in 2016.

Pinterest is a fabulous tool when it comes to planning a wedding, which is why we love it! Here are our ten most viewed and repinned images from this year: 

We hope you had a great 2015! Thank you for letting us be a part of it. We look forward to an exciting 2016 and wish you all a very happy new year!
