COLOR/BRIDAL TRENDS FOR 2011


The strapless dress also still holds its own, for bridal gowns and for bridesmaid dresses. Many, if not most, of the dresses for spring 2011 are strapless, an elegant style that emphasizes the neck and shoulders in a classically feminine way. A strapless bridesmaid dress that has been properly fitted to its wearer is one of the most flattering styles around. Just be sure to invest in a quality strapless bra!


One-shouldered dresses are also rapidly growing in popularity. The unique, asymmetrical shape of a one-shouldered bridesmaid dress suits brides who want a bridal party with a fashion-forward edge. The single shoulder strap can be delicate, for a feminine look, or bolder, for a more sassy and urban appearance.

Feminine touches like lace, floral, bead, and sequin embellishment are back in a big way, as are soft chiffons. Many bridesmaid dresses for Spring 2011 are somewhat more body conscious than in recent years, using sashes, bows, and ruching in order to emphasize the natural waist for a classic and feminine look.
Popular colors for spring 2011 are brights like apple green, fuchsia, coral, amethyst, emerald, orange, and yellow. New classics like grey, navy, and chocolate brown will make a return appearance as well.

Finally, the trend away from a completely matching bridal party to a more relaxed, color-coordinated but not identical group of bridesmaids is still going strong. More and more brides are letting their bridesmaids each choose a personally flattering and appealing dress in a selected color palette. By selecting the style of bridesmaid dresses on their own, bridesmaids will be sure to always have a dress that they love

SHORELINE BLISS

Larizza and Red gambled on a beach front nuptials in October and won. big time.  The cliche is "water , beach front equals blues and greens....", well, not really at least not this one.  It was an October celebration and the idea was to capture and infuse the season's color while giving a visually warm feel to the already cold breeze and cool colors of the pacific coast shoreline.

Taking a hint from nature's brief explosion of warm colors during its transitional phase from summer to winter, we opted for sienna , red orange,  turmerics and browns. Words to finalize the concept were : current,  rustic, (I know but there is a difference between current and modern ;-)) warm, cozy, romantic plus a touch of the exotic. It took 3 meetings  but we were able to achieve the very thing we sought out to do, I believe Larizza and Red were equally happy as we were able to bring to reality what they have conceived and dreamed of what their wedding day would be like. And Yes the weather agreed as well, blue sky and rays of sunshine capped this day Blissful!!
