Dear editor, I am getting married this winter and I noticed that brides are purchasing separate looks for the rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, bachelorette party, reception and bon voyage send off for their honeymoon. I have my wedding gown but need a few more outfits. Any suggestions?
Thank you for your question and Fashion Reverie concedes that the weddings of today are not the same as our parents and grandparents. Indeed, there are a lot of wardrobe changes leading to and on your big day so here are some of our favorite options and accessories to make you look your absolute best.
For the rehearsal dinner – This gorgeous cocktail dress from Diana Mahrach Couture is sure to please everyone and is appropriate for dinner with the youngest to the oldest in your families. Don’t forget to add a few sprays of “Nearlywed” by Susan James Fragrances. Some of the notes are white chocolate, vanilla, bergamot, jasmine and lily of the valley just to name a few. This signature scent will always remind you of these moments for the rest of your life.
For a vintage-inspired gown, this taupe and white dress from Diana Mahrach Couture with appliques is sure to be a wow moment while paying homage to yesteryear.
For the reception, you said “I do” so it’s time to change out of that gown and into your sleeveless and strapless mermaid gown so that you can dance like everyone is watching because they are! Don’t forget to take your veil off and add your birdcage headband veil to keep it classy and sassy. Imperial Lola by Grace bridal hair pieces remind us to “give” demure.
