The one accessories that can seem like an after thought. The one accessory that seems to be hidden. The one accessory that can speak VOLUMES when portraying your personality with your wedding attire. It compliments your gown and compliments your style. Your shoes…. I just don’t mean any shoes. I mean stellar shoes. Bright colors of blues and greens. Sparkles that can be seen from pews away and that seem to catch the light from the dance floor. One pop of color that can be seen hiding from under your dress. The is the one trend that we do not see fading away.
Show your true colors. Let your style sparkle. Show your shoes.

Imagine coats of white, muted bridesmaids dresses and gleams of breathtaking flowers. Your statement down the isle is not only your gorgeous dress selection but also that immaculate bouquet that you are carrying. When selecting your bouquet of flowers remember to compliment colors throughout your wedding and your ceremony location. If you are having an outside affair, mimic the greens in your surroundings. If your having an indoor ceremony, mimic the stained glass of your church windows or the light that will replecate off the beading and lace of your gown. Bright yellows, lovely pinks and beautiful reds. These pops of color will radiate through all of your images and be captured for years to come. This is what will make these moments so very breathtaking…. besides you, the bride herself.
This beautiful bouquet is by the talented Hillary Robson of Brocade Design Arts in Nashville.

Bridesmaid dresses galore, we understand. It’s terribly difficult to decide on what style of dress to pick, let alone what colors will coordinate with your overall theme. One color that is becoming prevalent and hitting the bridal boutiques Spring 2010 is Candy Apple Green. This color has been seen on the runways of Vera Wang to Lazaro and is making its mark in the bridal industry. No matter your gown choice, no matter the season, candy apple green is a perfect choice.
Remember, it’s vibrant – yet classy.
It’s complimentary – yet understated.
Everything a bridesmaid dress should encompass.
