wedding dress inspiration

'It Must Have Been the Roses' Dress by Claire LaFaye
I know, I know. I've been engaged for less than 48 hours, and here I am, already posting about wedding dresses. I have to confess that I've had several bridal gown designs in my head (and on paper via sketches) for a good two years now. To be fair to myself, I do design fashion for a living, so I'm constantly daydreaming of new dress designs. I also have the best dude ever as a partner, and knew I'd marry him long before he handed me a ring. So now that I've gotten my excuses out of the way, enjoy these stunning wedding dresses that I discovered today while browsing online.

  1. Oooooo, I love those Ida Sjostedt dresses! I also love that you are highlighting dresses that aren't white... I'm getting married this year and want a pale pink or pale gray dress. Love this post, love this blog! Congrats on your engagement too.

    its my Lela Rose and i wanted it so, so badly for my dress but it was too pricey. I still ended up with an amazing and delicate, Grecian inspired dress.

    You are going to be such a beautiful bride!!!
