   For Arrion, she already knew that her dream silhouette was a classic ball gown, but there are tons of other silhouettes brides can choose from. Some of the popular styles include a-line, sheath, mermaid, and trumpet.  When selecting the fabric for her dress, it was important to consider not only Arrion’s body type, but also the weather, the venue, and the movement of the gown. Most wedding dresses are made out of silk or polyester woven into satin. But, there are also many gowns made of tule, charmeuse, chiffon, organza, mikado, taffeta, georgette, crepe, and more. Arrion choose a full tulle skirt for her dress, and it fit the occasion perfectly. The neckline of the gown is something that often gets over looked by brides, but it plays a key role in helping to accentuate and frame the shoulders, neck, and face. Brides can choose between sweetheart, high neck, halter, v-neck, scoop, bateau, off the shoulder, one shoulder, and square necklines.  Or, they can go strapless sweetheart like our blushing bride choose to do. Each option can give a gown a completely unique look. The waistline is essential to accentuating a bride’s figure in all of the right places. Styles range anywhere from princess, to dropped waist, or natural waist, and more.  Lastly, the embellishments of the gown can add just the right touch to complete the wedding look. Details like crystals, appliqués, edging, or sequins can always spice up a gown. Arrion choose to go with a delicate ribbon and a jeweled brooch rapped around her waist to polish off her bridal look with a bang!
