Wedding Day Look: Purple Paradise

Brought to You by Justin Alexander

Happy Fashion Tuesday!  A new year calls for a new and fabulous Wedding Day Look! Today our fashion story’s inspiration comes from my favorite color – purple!!! Mysterious and emblematic, purple is the color of royalty and the hue of choice for many brides around the world. Therefore, we teamed up with our friends at Justin Alexander to put together a look around this breath-taking ceremony set-up that we call “Purple Paradise”.

This week we have carefully curated a collection of purple details paired with Justin Alexander Style 8702, a beautiful mermaid silhouette gown featuring lace appliques and beaded details. It is a statement making look for those sophisticated brides who want to keep it colorful, yet chic.




There you have it, lovelies.  Some bridal fashion inspiration to get your wedding dress shopping started.  Choose from any of the fabulous styles that Justin Alexander has to offer to really take your wedding day look to the next level.

Best Wedding Dresses of 2014

We're saying "adios" to 2014 and welcoming the new year with a collection of the most beautiful wedding dresses that we've featured in 2014. Those bridal gowns that you, our lovely readers, loved the most. You've liked them and shared them in social media, and sometimes you've even emailed us asking for help to find the wedding dress of your dreams.... and quite honestly, nothing could make us happier! Thank you so very much to each one of you!
I’ve been struggling all morning choosing the best wedding dresses and the right words to describe this breath-taking collection, but I keep coming up short. How to choose between so many gorgeous gowns? And what words could possibly do justice to these spectacular pieces of bridal fashion? Well loves, the criteria I ended up using was repins on Pinterest - all of these pretty frocks were either pin by you or me and they got more than 1,000 repins. And I can just tell you to get ready for a fabulous ride featuring a dreamy wonderland of soft fabrics, drop dead gorgeous details and perfectly pretty styles!
