Designer: Casablanca

Why We Love Her

Alice is a beautiful and well loved Casablanca designer wedding dress! Plus, she is just the perfect addition to our gallery! We think that is pretty obvious at first glance.

This gown is absolutely exquisite in her fine details of lace placement and overall silhouette. The lace pattern is one that takes our breath away, which makes her stunning even from first glance.

Alice comes in Ivory/Nude/Ivory/Silver (shown in the photos) and also comes in Ivory/Ivory/Silver. She is available in curvy sizing as well!

All in all, from head to toe – Alice is gloriously intricate and stunning from every angle. At the top, we have two thick sheer straps which effortlessly expand to create a gorgeous bodice. The bodice also showcases a symmetrical lace throughout, with a beautiful plunging neckline. Atop the lace is hand sewn beading gently tracing out the paisley patterns ever so delicately. A personal favorite detail of ours are the three-dimensional flower petals which add a beautiful finish to this stunning lace pattern. The bodice is complete with a lovely low back and applique continues into the top of the skirt.

Alice is full of surprises, one of them being the lace pattern picking up on the front hem of the dress! The beautiful detail of the top of the gown gives a glorious finish below, with another beautifully symmetrical lace configuration, which trails on the sides to the stunning train.

Speaking of the train, we have never seen anything like it! The scalloped edge of this train is superb for the lace and applique detailing, sprinkled with those amazing flower petals and beads once again, it is 110” of pure extravagance. This gown is absolutely to die for!

She’s Perfect For

Alice is everything but lowkey. She is fit for an elegant and fabulous wedding where every detail can be shown off to all who gaze upon her. Due to her gorgeous train, she would look incredible walking down the aisle of any cathedral or church, as well as any outdoor venue which catches some sun rays! Due to her breathability, she would do wonderfully for a summer wedding without overheating the bride. No matter what, the train and matching detail on this beauty will photograph incredibly, and will have you looking back and loving it for years to come!

What Makes Her Special

Overall, Alice is romantic as they come. The well-thought out detail of her is built to accentuate any body type. Similarly, she is created with comfort with her soft crepe and thicker sheer straps. She is truly one of a kind, with many unique and rare details all crafted into one gorgeous and modern designer wedding dress!

Designer: Wtoo

Why We Love Her:

Lucia is a sweet and sassy little knockout! This gorgeous, lace sheath gown is packed with detail without being overwhelming. Small florals and leafy vines that adorn the bodice and trickle down the skirt. These appliqués pop against the unlined bodice as well as against the layer of Chantilly lace atop a nude underlay. The illusion tank straps provide ample bust support and fall into a gorgeous and tasteful plunged v-neckline.

The back of Lucia’s bodice is equally as gorgeous as the front! The lace and illusion continues down the straps to the back that falls into a low scoop. The pattern of the lace mimics the front as the lace falls into a more strategically spaced out design. Subtle sparkle shimmers from the gown and hits the light with each movement. Lucia’s train is a show stopper with a scalloped, lace hem that trails beautifully behind the bride during her walk down the aisle!

She’s Great For:

This dress is the perfect choice for brides who love lace! There is no shortage of lace throughout this dress, and the botanical patterns on Lucia are absolutely gorgeous. The florals make Lucia a great gown for brides who have venues with outdoor components. Lucia would look incredible at a garden or arboretum ceremony, but would also be the perfect fit at a venue near water! The options are endless.

The color options that are offered on this gown also make her a great choice for brides! Lucia is featured with a nude underlay that makes the lace details pop. This nude color looks beautiful with vibrant color schemes and unique floral arrangements. For brides looking for a more traditional gown or less bold detail, the gown can be ordered in all ivory or with a soft champagne underlay and ivory lace.

What Makes Her Special:

This is a gorgeous gown that is really made special by her unique lace. While the appliqués themselves are delicate, they are arranged in a flattering pattern that makes them appear bolder. There are also multiple lace layers between the Chantilly lace and some of the appliqué stacked atop each other. Wtoo has designed the gown so nicely that it does not feel or look too heavy!

The most special detail is that she can also be ordered with long sleeves! Fall or Winter brides who fall in love with Lucia do not have to worry about being too cold on their big day with the option to order the gown with sewn in sleeves. These sleeves have matching lace that start on the shoulder and cover most of the arm down to the wrist. Make Lucia your own with all her options!

Designer: Kitty Chen

Why We Love Her:

Any bride looking for a fun and flirty little a-line gown will fall in love with Hermosa by Kitty Chen! Hermosa has a deep v-neck plunge and an unlined bodice topped with large, gorgeous floral lace. Delicate beaded spaghetti straps rest gently on the bride’s shoulders and drape down to the lace, scooped illusion back. The lace pattern is arranged to create a subtle keyhole back look with the illusion of floating buttons! Sequins hidden in the lace draw all eyes to this gorgeous bodice and catch the light with each movement.

The beautiful floral, leafy lace pattern trickles down through the skirt and train. A round cathedral length train trails romantically behind the bride during her walk down the aisle, and the lightweight nature of the gown makes for an extremely easy bustle. The best part about Hermosa is her fun peek-a-boo slit! When standing still, the slit looks like just another pleat in the dress but once the bride starts moving, she gets to show off a little bit of leg and those gorgeous shoes.

She’s Great For:

Hermosa is a great dress for the bride who wants a romantic and modern dress! The floral lace, fun back, and the hidden slit combine to make this gown the perfect amount of class and fun. The sparkle in Hermosa also make her an incredible choice for the bride who wants to shine all night long! 

Hermosa is the perfect gown for any venue. Her elegant shape and gorgeous sparkle would fit right in at a country club wedding while her slit and lightweight nature would be perfect outdoors in a garden, or even at a beach! The unlined illusion bodice allows for airflow so the bride will not overheat, so a Spring or Summer time wedding would be an ideal choice for a gown as perfect as Hermosa.

What Makes Her Special:

Hermosa is a special gown due to the way she is able to seamlessly combine elements of the traditional a-line gown shape with more modern details like the slit and floral lace. She also has a layer of horsehair in the hem that will allow the bride to walk effortlessly as the skirt will be pushed outward by her shoes. Speaking of shoes, the slit in the gown allows the bride to really show them off! Whether they are your something blue or some sparkly sneaks, Hermosa will make sure they have their time to shine, too!

The beading on Hermosa also allows her to be paired with a variety of jewelry. The straps are covered in a clear bead with some pearl detail scattered throughout. The incorporation of these pearls give brides the flexibility to choose between standard diamond jewelry or pearls. This can also be extended to hair accessories like beaded combs or veils with bead, pearl, or both.

This slimming fit and flare silhouette has a gorgeous leaf motif that trails off into godets at the skirt. With a V neckline and V back, dress 40417 features a detachable cape that mimics a sheared flutter sleeve to provide coverage but without the restrictions of a fully attached sleeve. 

What Makes Her Special:

When we first start working with our moms, grandmoms and aunts who are looking for that one gown for their special day, we discuss their desires and needs in a dress. One of the most often requested things is some type of sleeve, whether it be for coverage or comfort. But, committing to a full or ¾ length sleeve can be uncomfortable and restrictive in many circumstances. This is why we are huge fans of this Platinum Evening gown from Adrianna Papell!

40417 Dress Details

This gown adapts to your needs with a beautifully embellished cape that doesn’t look matronly as some caped pieces sometimes do. The cape attaches to the wide straps by a series of hooks and eyes making the piece easily removable so the wearer can adjust her look during the event. Having such a versatile gown makes it easy to change the level of formality during your big day. Leave the cape on for the ceremony and photos for a more formal look but then remove after you get to the reception for a more relaxed vibe for those candid reception photos. Or, keep it on for the entire event if it’s more comfortable for you. 

Not only is this dress beautiful and adaptable to your comfort and level of formality, but 40417 also cut in 16 different colors to easily match any bridal aesthetic. Another major benefit of choosing this gown is the overall comfort of the dress – the underlying fabric is a comfort stretch making this an easy gown to wear on such a long day. 

Due to the beaded motif on the gown, we suggest going minimal with your accessories. We suggest staying with the leaf motif with your jewelry to tie the whole look together.

A necklace and earring set with a dangling teardrop will help highlight the deep V neck of the gown.

Designer: Morilee

Morilee Wedding Dress | Why We Love Her:

Maritza is a show stopper if we’ve ever seen one. The gentle pearls displayed across the bodice and down the skirt are accompanied by a shimmer of sequins which makes it quite a stunner! To complete the look, pearls congregate together at the waist to snatch it in, giving more definition to the beautiful Ballgown silhouette. She is a classy gown with a truly special shine, whose silhouette will suit any and every bride!

With a modified sweetheart neckline, Maritza has a corset top bodice unlike anything we have ever seen. The edges of the neckline pop up with a dramatic flare. The boning of the bodice is slightly visible under the shimmer of the beaded tulle overlay. The sheer top allows for a contrast of color, but can also be lined for a more uniform display.

Morilee Wedding Dress | Details

The beads, pearls, and sequins begin to disperse as they travel down the skirt, leaving room at the bottom to admire the angelic haze of Ivory tulle. Not to mention her beautiful buttons which travel all the way to the bottom of the train!

For a bride concerned about a strapless gown, there is no need to worry. This gown comes with straps, and adding any type of sleeve would be an easy customization.

Maritza is available in a beautiful Ivory/Champagne/Honey (pictured above) and she also comes in all Ivory.

She’s Great For:

Maritza is truly fit for a princess. A dress for all seasons, she would shimmer magnificently in the snow, and also under the bright summer sun. Though she is voluminous, she is quite lightweight, making her perfect for a long day of walking, greeting, and dancing. Any pearl accessory would compliment her greatly, from a string of them around the neck, to a veil with them scattered throughout.

Maritza is a ballroom dweller for sure. She would love the spotlight; any chance to show off her detailed beading, iridescent sparkle and sequin magic. She can shine for any occasion, and would especially make a statement on a New Years Eve wedding!

What Makes Her Special:

It is rare that we see immense detail of both pearl and sparkle added together in such a way as we see on The Maritza Morilee Wedding Dress. To think that something as delicate as a pearl can be complemented with a shimmer that intense is incredible, and she wears it with ease! The entirety of this dresses’ detail comes from hand sewn bead work. This dress can only be made through lots of T.L.C.!

If Maritza and her beautiful sparkle intrigues you, you must come in and try her on!

Choosing a mother’s dress is a balancing act that most moms dread. Trying to adhere to the aesthetic of the bridal party and event location while embracing your individuality as a mother of the bride or groom isn’t the easiest task. This dress will effortlessly go from unpretentious to dazzling with a turn whether in the ballroom, a rustic barn or an evening black tie optional ceremony. 

Marsoni MV1250 Wedding Dress Details

Marsoni offers this dress in the traditional jewel tones of navy and emerald along with trending colors of gray mauve and seaglass, there is a complementary shade for every skin tone. 

Accessory options for this gown should be kept minimal as the incredible back detail should be the focal point of your look. With the bateau neckline, a necklace may be too overwhelming, but adding some sparkle to your look with earrings is definitely a way to go. Depending on your color choice, sapphire, emerald, prasiolite (seaglass) or pink quartz will match the beaded embellishments on the gown. It’s always a good idea to avoid bracelets with a crepe gown as bracelets can sometimes snag or abrade the material of the dress. 

Marsoni MV1250 Wedding Dress Material

An up-do with MV1250 is an absolute must though. There shouldn’t be anything that hinders the view of the back detail on this dress. An elegant chignon would highlight the back of the dress and elongate the neckline. 

Because of the simple pattern on the front of the gown, MV1250 is a side-zippered dress and will require just a little more forethought when dressing for your big day. It’s advisable to put your dress on first then cover it with a robe or cape when getting hair and makeup done.

Dress Details

Her bodice consists of a sweetheart neckline that is blooming with petals! These petals line the edge of the neckline with the overlapping lace that ever-so-slightly hangs over the edge, allowing the dress to have no harsh cuts or lines. Mackenzie’s bodice is unlined, so it is semi-sheer. There is, however, a layer of Chantilly lace as well as a corset boning that lines the bodice, creating dimension and allowing the bride to show a little bit of skin. This feature will also create separation between the bodice and skirt if the bride chooses to change the underlay color to all ivory.

Moving to her skirt, Mackenzie has a voluminous skirt that is covered with the leafy lace detail. There are buttons that cover the zipper closure Her hemline is lined with horsehair that allows the skirt to keep its shape all night long; bustled and all!

Why We Love Her:

This stunning trumpet-style gown 40160 is styled with a delicate floral beaded motif. Sheer cap sleeves frame the V-neckline and V-back. Not to mention, the subtle beaded natural waistline gives way to the slim godet skirt. From any angle, this dress is stylish, flattering, and youthful.

What Makes Her Special:

Additionally, this piece gets high marks for its fitted elegance, comfort and feminine detailing. The subtle nod to classic art deco styling never fails to impress. In fact, one of our favorite features is the godet skirt that adds a flair of movement as you walk across the room or share that honorary moment on the dance floor. The sheer yet beaded cap sleeves offer modest coverage and good range of movement. 

Dress Details

Equally important, the dress is cut from English net. The entire gown is adorned with delicate bugle beads and sequins in the tonal shade of the dress. The embellishment is minimal enough to work perfectly for an afternoon wedding. Yet, still striking enough to transition easily to an after 5:00 affair. Due to the overall beaded elegance of this stunner, minimal accessories would be required.
