white haute
Couture for the modern bride

The trend in bridal fashions this year
is all-out glam.

Forget understated. All traces of playful color are gone. This season the gowns are drawn from the red carpet…straight to the white aisle. The gorgeous styles out this year will make you feel like the celeb that you are…and you’ll revel in the attention. Has there ever been a more wonderful time to be a bride?

Dressmaker details give you plenty of choices---From demure to flirty, designers have pulled out all the stops. From sleek, sophisticated styling to sparkling Hollywood glamour, there is no shortage of choices to flatter every figure. With hand-beading, ruching, sophisticated strap details, the styles are the most feminine we’ve seen in years. And all of them are perfect for our Arizona climate! The come-hither styles here assure you’ll be the center of attention on your special day.

With all the amazing gowns out there, how does one discriminating bride find one exquisite dress that says everything she wants to say? Thank heaven for bridal consultants. Their knowledge about designers’ offerings, the most flattering cuts, and their discerning eye for style will guide the way. While you definitely want to walk into the boutique with some ideas, don’t rule out anything until you actually slip into it. Many brides come in with a handful of clippings, yet often order a dress very different from the original concept. There is truly something magical that happens when a girl starts trying on wedding gowns, so bring a friend or family member to share in this experience that you will never forget.

While there are no hard-and-fast rules about selecting a gown, we will offer one bit of sage advice: plan ahead. Most bridal gowns are custom-made and can take four to six months to arrive. Like love, beauty takes time!
