If you are a bride planning an autumn wedding and searching for wedding inspiration or chic bridal fashion inspiration, you are in the right place! We are so happy to be sharing another real wedding inspiration post featuring one of our The White Dress By The Shore brides. The majority of the brides shopping with us in Clinton, CT are usually having their weddings somewhere in the New England region, but today's real wedding feature takes us all the way to the sunny west coast of Florida! If you are dreaming of timeless bridal fashion with modern elements, you won't want to miss the wedding dress our TWD bride chose for her autumn wedding in Sarasota, Florida.
Our TWD bride Kathy was planning her wedding at the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida and so was looking for a wedding gown that would be both timeless and elegant but with a few modern touches that would elevate her bridal style. Kathy had an ideal of the bridal dress she wanted to wear on her wedding day and ultimately chose the Tucker wedding gown from the Blue Willow by Anne Barge bridal collection. This elegant wedding dress has a timeless feeling for our classic brides but offers a bit of drama as well for a modern touch. The dropped waistline and draped fabric of this wedding dress is both trendy and universally flattering on brides of all sizes. The off the shoulders straps add a feminine flair to this ball gown wedding dress while the leg slit adds a modern twist. The attached wedding dress overskirt adds the drama to this stunning bridal gown and is sure to make an impact when walking down the aisle.
To complete her timeless but modern and chic bridal style, our bride Kathy added a simple necklace, drop pearl earrings and pearl detailed bridal shoes. A simple long wedding veil added that extra "bridal" touch. A whimsical bouquet of autumnal hues and blooms popped against the white bridal gown and perfectly matched the gorgeous floral backdrop at the wedding ceremony.
Don't miss the beautiful wedding day images on the art museum grounds expertly captured by Bri & Bryce.
We loved helping our bride shop for her dream wedding dress for her destination wedding in Florida. Kathy had this to say about her experience shopping with us at The White Dress By The Shore:
“I heard about TWD from a co-worker of mine and decided to make an appointment. I will be honest and say I drove pretty far from New Haven to Clinton. Overall, I had such an amazing experience at TWD. I already knew what dress I pretty much wanted walking in, but Olivia made the experience so amazing. Everyone at TWD was so kind, especially Beth who went above and beyond for me. I feel so beautiful in my dress and cannot thank TWD enough. I’ve already recommended them to a few more friends here in Connecticut.”
