Elizabeth Scott Bridal – Rebecca Ingram “Danica” Gown

This sophisticated and ultra-stylish sheath crepe wedding gown from Elizabeth Scott Bridal is the easiest way to dazzle your guests with as few bedazzlements as possible. Opt for the enduring grace and charm of a simple sheath crepe wedding gown and pair it with statement solar earrings for even more effect – and give a new meaning to the bridal glow.

LuLu’s Bridal – Mikaella Bridal “2282” Style

Mikaella Bridal never misses and this satin gown from LuLu’s Bridal is complete with a breathtaking bateau neckline and V-shaped Italian tulle inserts at the side seams on the bodice. The satin belt at its waist leads into an asymmetric satin bow on the back that we simply adore, flowing into a full circle skirt with pockets. Add a little flair with statement floral earrings like the ones our bride modeled here or give a Priscilla Presley moment with a satin hair bow. All eyes are on you!

Patsy’s, A Bridal Boutique – Pronovias “Mingsha” Gown

The Mingsha gown from Patsy’s, A Bridal Boutique is an A-line dream fitted with a romantic V-neck and long, lacey sleeves that hint at vintage wedding looks while keeping it very much modern, feminine, and sophisticated. Bring all the style with a pearl-beaded headband that this model shows off so well. Her entire ensemble is a breath of fresh air and perfectly suited for any spring or summer affair!

StarDust Celebrations – Robert Bullock “Harmony” Gown

The “Harmony” gown is like a sweet symphony for our eyes, with a strapless, cuffed neckline in contemporary satin. Find it at StarDust Celebrations with the most attractive back lapel and button details that draw even more attention to an adorable pearl-studded bow from Christian Joy Bridal. Put the prep in your step with this spring bridal look!
