How to choose your wedding gown? Five easy steps to guide you.

There are a few simple steps to follow when choosing your gown. It can be overwhelming, yet exciting looking through the magazines, friends sending photos of dresses they think you should wear, scanning the websites, and researching the hundreds of designers. There are five simple guidelines for finding your dream dress.

  1. Set your Date and Venue. The time of year and the place you have the wedding can guide you with your overall style and look of the wedding. Whether a winter wonderland at the Taj, or a destination wedding in Cape Cod, your dress needs to fit the occasion. 
  2. Have a Budget.  The dress, accessories, and alterations can all add up so know what your comfortable spending, and don't be afraid to let your consultant know. If your unsure ask, what would a veil cost, shoes, any other accessories and of course alterations. All dresses need alterations hem, bustle, and maybe a take in at the bust, waist or hip. 
  3. Know your Silhouette and Style that looks best.  If you know you prefer strapless, or you need a v-neck, maybe you like a natural waist versus a dropped waist. If your pear shaped embellish on the top and choose an Aline dress. An apple shape a sweetheart neckline to draw the eye up and an empire waist. Hourglass a fit and flare, cinch at the waist. A rectangular shape, choose something that is curvy, or a bias cut dress. Every shape has its assets, don't be afraid to show them off!
  4. When your ready to make the appointment, chose one or two people who know you best. Its easy to invite the entire bridal party, but don't. This is your day, and as overwhelming as it can be having a group with you can make it challenging. Everyone like to pull a dress, everyone has an opinion. You know what you want, you know what you like, too many people can confuse that decision. Bring the one or two people who are honest, who know you and will be supportive. Meet up with the girls after for dinner!
  5. HAVE FUN! This is an exciting time, take a breath and enjoy. Have fun choosing your dress, you want to look back and think I love it just as much as the day I wore it. 
Enjoy and happy dress shopping.

Did you hear about The Bridal Event at The Mall at Chestnut Hill September 14th 2014


 Lights. Camera. Action!!
The Bridal Event at the Mall at Chestnut Hill!

Sunday, September 14th marked the 7th Annual Bridal Event at the Mall at Chestnut Hill. L’elite Boston and Musette Bridal—Boston’s award-winning boutiques and the source to turn to for the finest designer wedding and special occasion attire—were sponsors of the bridal fete.!
It was a brilliant Sunday in New England, when most would be outside savoring the final days of summer, but surprisingly, the Mall at Chestnut Hill was packed with brides-to-be, mothers of the brides, bridesmaids, and all sorts of fashion forward trendsetters dying to get the first glimpse of “what’s hot” on the wedding scene today. Complete with a designer runway, trade show booths, DJ, A-list photographers and videographer, and Kathy Benharris, fashion show producer and backstage management goddess, the event was certain to be a crowd-pleaser. And it was.!
As seats quickly filled, people lined the the upper level for a crow’s nest view, and every eye intently studied the lovely models donning iconic designer gowns from industry masterminds such as Monique Lhuillier, Carolina Herrara, Oscar de la Renta, Amsale, Ines Di Santo, and more. From romantic elegance, to goddess and mermaid styles, each gown was a unique work of art—featuring embellishments comprising hand- crocheted lace, Swarovski-studded buttons, ornate beaded bodices and sequined silks —eye candy at its finest, for both special occasion wear and bridal gowns.!

As the models sashayed their way down the runway, they paused, providing enough time for their attire to be fully examined by attentive on-lookers. Each model exuded her own personality and “attitude” for the enjoyment of the audience. Gleaming smiles replaced dull, blank stares expected of runway models. To be queen for a day is a bride’s entitlement, so why not reflect that joy during a bridal event?

                 “Stunning. Glamorous. Fun!"!

These were the superlatives that resonated among the crowd, and the finale was the icing on the cake: each model waltzed down the runway cradling a delicate handful of flower petals. They encircled the “bride,” who tossed her bouquet into the audience, accompanied by the flurry of flower petals that simultaneously filled the air like confetti. A sweet and entertaining surprise embraced by the applauding crowd.
