All about the back…. 8036🤍

“A vision of romance and modern elegance down the aisle, Style 8036 showcases a stunning combination of sparkle tulle and intricate floral lace for an altogether captivating romantic wedding gown. Delicate lace spaghetti straps gracefully lead to a soft V-neckline, framing a sheer lace bodice that exudes ethereal beauty. Discreet side cutouts add a contemporary touch, while a unique keyhole back detail creates an unexpected and charming focal point. The gown’s soft A-line skirt is a vision of shimmering elegance, crafted from optional glitter tulle and scattered delicate lace accents, opening for a tasteful leg slit in the front for a subtle hint of glamour and ease of movement. Timeless and romantic, this sparkling lace wedding gown creates a magical bridal moment from every angle.”

For the bride whose after “a floaty soft A-line with a touch of drama but without the weight of a ball gown”… 7965🤍

“Style 7965 captures the essence of bridal elegance with a gentle A-line silhouette and allover lace design. The stunning square neckline features a soft peekaboo plunge lined in sheer tulle, adding a touch of glamour to this luxe plus size wedding dress. Dainty shoulder straps support a sheer bodice, where leafy tendrils of 3D florals cascade down, creating a showstopping effect as they blend into scattered lace appliques that gracefully flow across the sweeping A-line skirt. A scooped back detail and high leg slit add a playful touch to this romantic lace wedding gown, forming a seamless blend of timeless charm and modern sophistication.”

A timeless, full lace fit & flare… 2731🤍

“Our Seraphina designer wedding dress is a maximalist mermaid dream featuring allover beaded, embroidered lace with three-dimensional appliqués over Chantilly lace with its delicate floral motif. The v-neckline has a sultry plunge and a soft scoop back with sheer detailing that highlights the botanical lace. The stunning skirt has a dramatic flare with buttons leading down to the chapel length train.”

For the bride who loves a sleeve … 7867🤍

“For an unforgettable wedding day look, Style 7867’s sexy fit-and-flare long-sleeve wedding dress is a design for the romantic bride. Gorgeous optional matte lace paints the skin in delicate florals with a sheer high neckline and elegant long sleeves. Beneath the illusion lies a sexy sweetheart neckline and fitted bodice with a low V-back scoop and a small row of fabric-covered buttons in the back. The stunning fit-and-flare silhouette graces every curve of the body, with 3D floral and lace appliqués exquisitely placed to create a daring and sophisticated bridal look. This gown is available with or without glitter tulle and beading.”

We LOVE getting to know our brides, their families & friends and hearing all about their wedding plans. Our lovely Georgia was a perfect example of all of this 🤍🥂

“Our Syndie designer wedding dress channels everything we love about 90s glamour. The simple, soft satin gown has a subtle luminosity with its slinky shape that falls off the body in a sheath silhouette. The bateau neckline is a vintage touch leading into a dramatic open back with a draped cowl detail. Buttons leading down to the chapel length train add to the timeless feel of the gown.
