Navy, It’s Not Just For Sailors!!

I know, I know…you think navy has been over done at weddings.  Honestly, I thought the same way…until now!  navy is not just incorporated into weddings in the obvious, nautical interpretation that it has been in the past.  From the groom’s suit to flowers to fabrics, the color navy is making a statement in a whole new, classically stunning way.  Check out my favorite navy picks for the upcoming Spring 2015 wedding season!

I am slightly obsessed with the Navy suit and camel colored dress shoes finished off with a funky bow tie for a vintage feel!

Anemones are probably one of my favorite flowers!  LOVE these rare white Anemones with the deep navy center!

Bridesmaid Dress Trends for 2013: Illusion Necklines

Showing up on fashion runways all over are designs featuring illusion necklines.  The bridal industry has been no exception to this fashion trend.  Throughout 2012 and 2013 bridal gowns are being made with illusion necklines and, to my delight, are now showing up in bridesmaid gowns.

If you are still wondering what an illusion neckline is, you are probably not alone.   An illusion neckline is a sheer piece of fabric that lays over a gown giving the appearance of a high neckline but with a hint of skin showing through.

In my opinion this takes a dress from simple to stunning and shows off a little skin without showing too much!

You want your bridesmaids to look beautiful and feel amazing and this style dress just may be the perfect balance for your girls.  Brides want to ditch the traditional strapless dress and an illusion neckline gives a strapless dress a twist.

Lace dresses are another trend for 2013 in bridesmaid dresses. I love the pairing of a lace bridesmaid dress with an illusion neckline!

Even the flower girl dresses are being made with illusion necklines to match the bridesmaids!  How cute is this?
