Maybe it’s the fact that we were all locked away for what feels like forever and we started dopamine dressing or maybe it’s the new Barbie movie coming out but we’re all about maximalism right now. AW Bridal, one of our all-time favorite brands is going all in on this trend and has introduced some floral dresses that are everything and more! Whether it’s for your big day or for one of the MANY events leading up to it, AW Bridal has a floral dress for every occasion. Here are some pro tips on how to rock these stunning new gowns. Seriously, isn’t everything better with flowers? Take a peek and we think you’ll agree…

let the seasons be your guide

When picking the right floral dress for your wedding, the simplest way to start is with the season. Here are our picks for every time of year:

spring

pastel 3D floral wedding dress from AW Bridal

Nature is bursting into life, birds are chirping, there’s love in the air, and really is there anything more spring than flowers? Nope! So a floral dress for a spring wedding is really a no-brainer. That being said, opt for lighter shades. Lean into pastels like lavender and blush to evoke that airy spring feeling. We’re absolutely in love with this gorgeous lavender number.

summer

Big bold florals are the only way to go for your summer wedding and we’re obsessed with this bright floral print! Even if you’re leaning more toward neutral tones for your dress, how sick would this be for your bridesmaids at a garden wedding?! Who needs bouquets when your girls look like this?

AW Floral Dress

fall

Think deep and moody floral accents for your fall wedding. This lovely high-low dress with its rich plum flowers is serving some sexy vampy vibes with a flirty feminine twist. Oh, and it probably goes without saying but yes to the matching lip…you’re welcome!

winter

Snow White who? This is probably the most regal of all the floral dresses in the collection. Something about the deep red flowers against the airy tulle skirt. Shades of red and crisp white evoke all those cozy winter feels. Imagine how amazing this gown would look next to your bridesmaids in matching red velvet dresses!

delightfully affordable

As always, this latest collection of dresses from AW Bridal is super affordable, with the highest price coming in at only $139.99 and the look featured above is just $89.99! At that price, you could seriously get a different dress for every party and still have money left over in your dress budget!

East Coast Brides–Grace Loves Lace Is Coming To New Jersey! https://www.weddingchicks.com/bride-style-ideas/grace-new-jersey/ Thu, 20 Apr 2023 14:00:00 +0000 https://www.weddingchicks.com/?p=806415 Jersey brides, the rumors are true. Iconic Australian bridal brand Grace Loves Lace has heard you and New Jersey is home to the newest GRACE showroom!

Jersey brides (and East Coast brides in general), iconic Australian bridal brand Grace Loves Lace (GRACE) has heard your cries and yes, the rumors are true–New Jersey is home to the newest stateside GRACE showroom! In vibrant Montclair, New Jersey, this new location opened in March of 2023 and is their 25th global showroom, with locations throughout Australia, Canada, the UK, and the US and it’s bringing bridal like you’ve never seen before (find a showroom near you) ! Now we probably don’t need to tell you about GRACE because you (along with 2.5 million other brides-to-be) probably have one of their iconic gowns pinned to your gown board already. But, we’re so excited about their new stateside showroom that we just have to brag a bit about why we ❤️them so much!

Grace Loves Lace New Jersey boutique

“We have seen a noticeable shift away from the traditional wedding uniform in Jersey, with more brides searching for a relaxed yet chic look for their big day. It makes us so proud to be able to fill that missing gap of modern bridal in Jersey!” -Founder and Creative Director of GRACE, Megan Ziems

Comfort Above All Else

Yes, GRACE gowns are gorg, there’s no denying that, but what really sets them apart from the other gowns out there is comfort. Their stretch lace designs, which look like couture but wear like athleisure, have developed a cult following. GRACE brides don’t have to compromise between comfort and style. Since their launch in 2011, they’ve continued to innovate and introduce new and exciting textiles into their bridal line like sleek silk and crepe that will no doubt resonate with the glamorous yet timeless New Jersey bride.

Accessibly Priced & Responsibly Made

affordable sexy wedding gown from Grace Loves Lace

“We know our GRACE brides and we know what she wants. We design each and every gown for the GRACE woman – a woman of style, substance, and passion – and we know these women are in abundance in New Jersey”, says Founder and Creative Director, Megan Ziems. And while the GRACE bride is no doubt discerning in her style, she is responsible and realistic with her wedding budget–#adulting. Seriously, you’ll never believe how affordable these stunning gowns are! The price point for GRACE gowns caps out at $3,900 and goes as low as $1,900. What we love most about this price range is that it’s on par with the national average budget for wedding gowns, so pretty much any bride can go into the showroom, find the gown of their dreams, and say yes without having to glance at the price tag. Plus they’re going above and beyond to keep their carbon footprint to a minimum and continue to push for equity for women in business–so it’s a purchase you can feel good in and feel good about!

Great Sizing Options

Thanks to their innovative stretch textiles, GRACE gowns already have a lot to offer in terms of fit, but it’s definitely worth mentioning that 80% of Grace Loves Lace’s gowns are made-to-order. This allows them to be made to the bride’s individual size and height range up to 5XL! And their made-to-order gowns have a surprisingly short turnaround time, catering to the bride whose wedding is just 6 months away or more. Shorter timeline? No prob! They also have a range of ready-to-wear styles that are available for immediate purchase, for the bride who is ready to wed now.

Laid-back Luxury

If you’ve been gown shopping before, whether for yourself or for a friend, then you know how stressful it can be…but not with GRACE. All appointments at GRACE are complimentary (yes, some boutiques charge!) and they encourage lots of photos and welcome their brides to bring their loved ones along for the ride. “Our appointments are personalized, comfortable, and stress-free, which is what really sets us apart from our competitors,” explains Founder and Creative Director of GRACE, Megan Ziems.

14 Grass-friendly wedding shoes that are attractive and functional https://www.weddingchicks.com/bride-style-ideas/grass-friendly-shoes/ Wed, 05 Apr 2023 11:00:00 +0000 https://www.weddingchicks.com/?p=804464 Getting married outside? You may feel like you have to compromise on your wedding shoes, sacrificing fashion for function. To that, we say, nonsense!

wedding sandals that can walk on grassPhotography:

Every bride dreams of her Cinderella moment, when she slips into her delicate, beautifully embellished wedding shoes. But in dreams, you’re probably floating on air down the aisle. In real life…well, that depends on what type of aisle you have. If you’re getting married outside (which so many couples are), it’s probably grass, and those pretty designer spike heels will sink into the earth leaving you stumbling and your glass slippers ruined. So what’s a girl to do, settle for ugly shoes? Never. We’ve rounded up grass-friendly wedding shoes that are as attractive as they are functional. Happy shopping…

Shoes are obviously critical, but so are these other must-haves for your outdoor wedding. And while we’re on the subject of planning here are some pro tips on how to work with the weather instead of around it.

10 Cigar Band Engagement Rings That May Change Your Wish List https://www.weddingchicks.com/bride-style-ideas/cigar-band-rings/ Mon, 03 Apr 2023 14:00:00 +0000 https://www.weddingchicks.com/?p=803774 Are delicate engagement rings out?

toi et moi cigar band engagement ring with pear shaped diamondPhoto/Ring:

Are delicate engagement rings out? Well, not necessarily, but we are seeing an exciting new trend that may turn the tide–cigar band engagement rings! What are they? Well, like the name says, the band itself is about the same width (or wider) than the metallic band around a cigar. And while the band certainly makes a statement, opting for a cigar band engagement ring doesn’t mean forgoing the traditional diamond centerpiece. On the contrary, we find that these cigar bands double down on the size (and quantity) of the diamonds as well. We love this modern take on traditional engagement rings and how it’s more practical for everyday wear. Pair it with an equally substantial diamond eternity band or with a delicate pave band to lighten the stack. When it comes to diamonds and precious metals, you really can’t go wrong.

Still think delicate is the way to go? Check out these insanely beautiful hidden halo rings or some of our favorites for National Proposal Day!

1. Double the diamonds

toi et moi cigar band engagement ring with oval and round diamonds

We love how many of these cigar band rings feature more than one diamond. This fresh take on the tu et moi ring is so bold and modern–perfect for today’s brides.

2. Beauty and substance

oval cigar band engagement ring

The width of the band and the oval shape of the diamond soften the impact of this truly gigantic rock. It’s serving bling but not too in your face. We also love the delicate band it’s paired with.

3. Negative space

round diamond engagement ring with cigar band in yellow gold

The negative space in this cool ring is giving us all the positive vibes. This is definitely one of those engagement rings that even complete strangers will comment on.

4. Front and center

yellow gold cigar band with hex cut diamond

This unique ring has so much going for it, the hexagonal cut of the diamond and the non-traditional placement set it apart from the crowd.

5. The tie that binds

marquise cut cigar band engagement ring

Loving the symbolism in this band that’s being held together by a delicate marquise-cut diamond.

6. emerald-cut perfection

emerald cut cigar band engagement ring

Perfect for the bride who is all about minimalism and is always effortlessly chic, this emerald-cut cigar band engagement ring is modern and timeless all at once.

7. A hint of color

aquamarine cigar band engagement ring

Cigar band engagement rings aren’t just for diamond lovers, they come in all shapes, cuts, and colors. We love this Aquamarine ring by Kasia Jewelry.

8. To infinity and beyond

trillion cut diamond engagement ring with cigar band

Another one with some beautiful symbolism, two trillion cut diamonds pointing towards your past and your future merge together forever.

9. toi et moi

Two of our fave 2023 trends in one ring? Yes, please! If you’re always down to try the latest trends, then this is the ring for you.

10. coast to coast

Love the East-West setting of this oval diamond, especially for a long-distance couple.

Once you’ve finally found the dress, it’s time for the fun part–accessorizing! The shoes, the jewelry, and of course, the veil! For most brides, your wedding will be the first (and likely only) time that you’ll wear a veil, and getting one that speaks to you is the difference between feeling confident on your wedding day vs. feeling like you’re wearing a costume.

So where do you even begin? Well, it all starts with finding the right line, and we’ve got just the one for you, Laura Jayne. With their years of experience styling brides, their vast selection of veils and other accessories, and their virtual consults, shopping with Laura Jayne is the modern, stress-free, and FUN way to find the perfect veil for YOU!

At Laura Jayne, they don’t just care about your veil, they care about your entire wedding ensemble and will make sure that everything melds beautifully together into one cohesive look. Their expert styling and incomparable customer service are really what sets them apart. From the color and the details to getting the length just right so it complements the length of your gown and doesn’t interfere with the silhouette (yeah that’s a thing!). But don’t worry, that’s what they’re there for. 

Plus, every Laura Jayne veil is hand-crafted in-house which means they can incorporate customizations if needed to make sure your veil is perfect for your bridal look.

What’s Trending?

UNIQUE TULLES
There are a ton of different options when it comes to what tulle (the mesh fabric) your veil is made from. Laura Jayne has everything you could want from ultra-sheer and soft Mirage Tulle to sophisticated silky Luxe Tulle. If you’re really looking to level up your bridal look with your veil, consider a fashion option like sequined or glitter-dipped tulle. Looking for a sustainable veil option? Laura Jayne’s got that too. 

Their new recycled tulle is revolutionizing the bridal industry as we know it and they even offer veil shapes that can later be repurposed as post-wedding accessories so it’s no longer a one-time-wear. Need to get a feel for the tulle before you decide? Brides can order swatches through their site.

EMBELLISHMENTS
Pearls are still very much on-trend, but we’re seeing more and more brides add touches of clear crystal for a little added shimmer all around. Sentimental details like embroidered and beaded phrases, monograms, and symbols are also trending as brides are looking to add meaning to their wedding look.

More Than Veils

While they’re famous for their veils, Laura Jayne has so much more! They’ve got earrings, bracelets, necklaces, belts, and even shoes! Plus, they have a ton of veil-alternative hair accessories if veils just aren’t your thing or if you want to switch up your look from ceremony to reception.

Gone to Heaven Boot Barn x Double D Ranch Collab

Did anyone else double tap TF out of Beyonce’s Renaissance World Tour announcement that went up in early Feb? We’re pretty sure that among the nearly 9 mill fans of the post, at least a few hundred (if not more) were soon-to-be brides, which begs the question: Is cowboy core coming for the wedding world? WE SURE HOPE SO!!

Boot Barn, the undeniable arbiter of American cowboy fashion, recently collaborated with partners Double D Ranch and Lane Boots to level up their Wedding Shop, and we’re so in love with all the arrivals. From rhinestone fringe jackets and belts with bling to tall white boots with pearl detailing and snip toe styles with “The New Mrs.” embroidered in blue, these looks are sure to bring some edge to the cowgirl couture you’re sporting on the big day. You know we love a good country wedding.

They’re giving cowgirl glam

Boot Barn x Lane Boots Something Blue Collaborationtall wedding boots from boot barn

Okay, so before we give you the peek at all the pretty, we’re going to dive into the collaboration details straight from Boot Barn. We’re obsessed with these two limited-edition, exclusive bridal capsules teamed up with western-fashion brands, Double D Ranch and Lane Boots. And if you’re feeling a little déjà vu-y (we were too!), don’t freak out, you’ve seen these dresses before. Rue de Seine has such a way with cowgirl fashion, so of course, these new capsules would be the only choice to accessorize their gowns—for the sophisticated, bold bride, on her best day ever.

The boots are conceptualized, first, as hand-drawn sketches and then they’re meticulously handcrafted by skilled boot artisans. The flawless result features luxurious genuine leather, hand-stitched studwork, and stunning vintage sensibility.

Something blue, but even better

The collection showcases the infamous artistry Double D is known for. The exclusive Gone to Heaven capsule features whimsical jackets, elaborate accessories, and sleek white boots. In a few words, this bridal edit illustrates the ‘paradise-like’ spirit of ever after.

Gone to Heaven Boot Barn x Double D Ranch Collab

bootbarnwedding_0005_bootbarnhorseandjacket20170101_WW_GoneToHeaven-DoubleD_8520

We’re calling it, cowboy core is the next big thing for weddings. And these new fashions are ideal for your ‘I dos,’ because they side-step a basic, stereotypical Americana vibe, in favor of a completely reimagined rodeo [drive]-inspired aesthetic.

Gone to Heaven Boot Barn x Double D Ranch Collab

cowgirl wedding looks

And let’s be honest, as much as we idolize Bey, her Renaissance Tour, disco ball ethos is just a touch-bit much for weddings. We kind of see Boot Barn’s capsules with Double D and Lane as the perfect balance between Yellowstone cowgirl cool (prairie dresses and cowboy hats) and Beyonce’s giddy-up glitz.

Boot Barn wedding boots

It photographs beautifully and doesn’t just fit in at weddings on the farm or inside a barn. If we didn’t know any better, we’d think Beth Dutton was envisioning this poetic wedding scene exactly when she uttered the words “I don’t need anything else. Cigarettes, whiskey, a meadow, and you.”

vintage style bridal shoot

We always love a little vintage flair, especially when it has an incredible backstory. Our next feature involves a local historical venue that has not seen any activity since a wedding in 1920- The Hawthorne Hill House. This historic location was the perfect spot to photograph a vintage-inspired bridal session.

The shoot is overflowing with bridal pose ideas, and you’ll love the floral wedding dress, custom-made by Nashville Gown Rental. This one-of-a-kind dress was made with vintage fabric, and make sure to notice the pearl detailing on the dress’s bodice is exquisite! As you already know, pearls are having a significant wedding moment.

A talented Nashville, Tennessee wedding team orchestrated Trademark Studios Photography captured these antique-style bridal photographs. Gossamer a sustainably-minded floral studio, designed all the wedding flowers in the shoot. Magnolia Wedding Company planned the entire bridal shoot. Read on to hear more details about the day from their team.

Historic Hawthorne Hill House

This soon to be bride came to us wanting a unique place to host her very special bridal shots for her wedding to be happening next October. The bride being a local to Nashville, her fiancé rising country music star knew we had the perfect spot for her. The historic Hawthorne Hill House was recently made available for our amazing photographer to use and knew it would be the perfect backdrop for our brides style.

The Hawthrone Hill House was built in 1805 and the last activity it had seen was a wedding in 1920 which just so happened to be the year the ring the bride wore was given to her fiance’s great grandmother.

It was a match made in heaven! We wanted to keep the design much like the houses present condition, simple and vintage.

The hair and make up was stunning and truly fit the theme perfectly. We always tell our clients when planning all the wedding things it’s so important to find something that connects with you as a bride or as a couple. It will always come through on your big day and show in your photos the love and connection you have to whatever it may be. In this bride it was the connection to the home and the history it had for her hometown!

We usually wrap December up with ‘this was awesome’ highlights from our favorite brands, but now that it’s a shiny new year, we feel like a good old ‘Best of’ roundup in 01 of 2023 is just as appropriate. And Maggie Sottero will always be on our radar, because the bridal design house is 1) for women, by women 2) run by moms and daughters who know all the highs and lows of the ‘classic’ wedding dress shopping experience, and have reimagined it for the modern bride and their entourage and 3) hell-bent on championing the most inclusive, all-brides-considered diversity in the industry today. So, we’re taking a look at 20 iconic dresses that come to mind every time we hear the name Maggie Sottero (or stalking the designers’ social pages—can’t EVEN tell you how many times I’ve seen a dress and automatically remembered its name, because it’s burned in my memory in the best way possible).

In the spirit of dutiful recapping…

We can’t forget to call out what we love about Maggie Sottero, the brand, alone

  • Everything designed under the watchful eye of current brand CEO and Creative Director, Kelly Midgley (daughter of Lesley Margaret Webster, who assumed the name of her great grandmother Maggie Sottero when she founded the company), pays tribute to brides as they are today—tomorrow—and in all the days to come
  • No one is ever left behind or overlooked. No matter your personal style, budget, timeline, aesthetic, persona, size, or how you identify, you’ll always have real representation at Maggie Sottero. “Token” treatment just isn’t a thing #HereForIt
  • “The Maggie Magic” is alive and well in every silhouette and style. And that doesn’t mean there is only one preferred look, either; rather, the magic comes to life through impeccable styling, incomparable fit, premium construction, and designs for brides of all shapes and sizes
  • And finally, but IMO, most importantly, Maggie Sottero celebrates the uniqueness and love story of each and every bride (who ends up becoming an extension of the family-owned business itself) through a complete and personal approach to business and product. That means brides are encouraged to personalize anything they want in their purchase in order to make their dress feel most authentically ‘them’

As for the affordability and accessibility of this legacy brand? Well, that’s just another ❤️ of ours. Maggie Sottero offers on-trend, value styles to match any budget AND shop-now gowns to meet every timeline. Need it fast, for a wedding not too far out? No problem. Many styles can be quick-shipped.
