How Affordable are Sustainable Wedding Dresses?

It also means that these styles can be made more affordably, making them perfect for a bride on a budget. The ReImagine Collection by David’s Bridal has seven wedding dresses, all at affordable price points under $600 (with many of the styles falling under $500!).

Recycled Crepe Wedding Dresses

A sleek fabric like recycled crepe is the perfect choice for a trendy bride. With details like off-the-shoulder sleeves and embroidered lace, these styles were designed with boho and beach weddings in mind, and can easily be accessorized with a floral head piece or a sustainable veil.

Recycled Chiffon & Satin Wedding Dresses

Styles RWG4082 and RWG4077

Looking for a romantic bridal look? These two styles are perfect for an eco-conscious bride who wants to look elegant on her wedding day. Details like a pleated waistband and twirl-worthy tiered skirt make style RWG4082 one of our most popular sustainable wedding dresses. If you’re looking for something a little more classic, RWG4077 is thoughtfully-designed with yards of recycled satin and a trailing train with a line of pearl buttons.

Recycled Lace Wedding Dresses

Styles RWG4081, RWG4079, RWG4080

Delicate recycled lace was used to create these three sustainable wedding dresses. The cap sleeves on styles RWG4081 and RWG4080 are perfect for a bride who wants some additional coverage.

Hello, Spring wedding season!

As spring wedding invitations begin to land in your mailbox, they may mention dress codes that leave you scratching your head—or worse, offer no clue at all. We’ve broken down the tricky lingo so you know exactly what to wear to a spring wedding!

Casual Spring Wedding

The relaxed atmosphere of a casual wedding leaves a lot of leeway for your outfit. These are perfect events for wearing a fun neckline, a playful pattern, a bright color, or a flowy silhouette. Let your dress make the statement and keep your accessories minimal. When it comes to spring weddings, it’s always a good idea to keep the venue location in mind when choosing shoes: wedges, flats, and platforms are perfect since they won’t sink into the ground outside!

Styles WBM3617, D39NY23336, D24NY22627, WBM3616V2

Semi-Formal Spring Wedding

Trying to figure out what to wear to a spring wedding when the dress code says semi-formal, or, even worse—says nothing at all? Think of semi-formal attire as wedding guest default mode. If the invite doesn’t specify how to arrive, reach for a classic cocktail dress or a simple floor-length dress in your favorite color. Pair with a statement smoky eye and a nude lip for a fail-proof semi-formal look.

Styles WBM3622, D21NY23197, WBM3628, WBM3632

Formal Spring Wedding

Pull out all the stops—without upstaging the bride, of course! It’s all in the details for formal and black-tie occasions: Try a gown with eye-catching embellishments that sparkle and shine all night long. Pair your most dramatic and sophisticated accessories to finish off this spring wedding outfit. With the warmer weather opt for warmer toned metals like gold or rose gold to complete your spring wedding look!

Styles D28NY23224, WBM3674, D28NY23305, D40NY22221V4

Black Tie Spring Wedding

If your invite says black tie, it’s time to find a gown! Your dress should hit the the ground or the top of your feet; if it’s too short or a midi style, you may look too informal next to the other guests. People often think black dresses are a no-go for weddings, but this isn’t true, especially for black tie. Picking a darker color will add a sense of formality to your look, perfect for a classy wedding. Consider picking a style with some sparkle or lace to add personality while still sticking to dress code.

Styles D28NY22280V3, D28NY22557, D28NY23361, D28NY23219V1

Mother of the Bride &
Groom Styles for Spring

It’s the bride’s big day… but it’s your big day, too! Pick a dress that complements the bridal party’s color family, but still feels entirely you. Floral lace and dreamy chiffon fabrics are perfect for a springtime wedding. Experiment with bright, fresh colors, or soft, dusty pastels to complete your spring wedding outfit! Add matching accessories and you’ll be beaming with pride—and with style.

Styles WBM3178, WGIN12K, WGIN5141D, D40NY23247

No matter what the dress code is, it’s time to put away those dark tones and try bright new colors and fun patterns that come along with springtime! Have some inspiration now for your spring wedding outfit? Shop these styles and more online or visit your local David’s Bridal!

Picture Perfect Pairings

When it comes to wedding aesthetics, color plays a huge role. From your flowers to your tablescape, the colors you pick help set the mood for your big day. Color also plays a role when it comes to your wedding party. The Black Tux and David’s Bridal make it easy to coordinate looks for your entire group with matching shades and complementary hues. Not sure where to start? We’ve got you covered! Read on for our bridal party color coordination guide.

Time To Coordinate

From bridesmaids to bromaids, groomsmen to groomswomen, there are a lot of people to consider when coordinating your party. The most common way to coordinate is to have your bridesmaids’ dresses match the color of the groomsmen’s tie or bowtie. While we love this classic look, you do have additional options! Do you want your maid of honor and best man to stand out? Or, are you looking for an eclectic vibe where everyone wears a different color or pattern? Whichever option you pick, The Black Tux features shades that match back to your favorite David’s Bridal palette. Keep scrolling for some of our top color options!

Spice It Up

Calling all our fall couples—you’re going to want to save this for later! For a color that matches the look and feel of your autumn nuptials, the shade Cinnamon is a must-have. This hue looks gorgeous set against the vibrant backdrop of an outdoor fall wedding. To add interest to your party, consider mixing fabrics among your dresses and ties. This is a great option if you’re looking for a standout party that’s still cohesive.

Go Green

Style F20099

Green bridal parties are on the rise! This timeless color is making its way into weddings with a variety of aesthetics, and Juniper is especially popular among DB brides. This deep forest hue will complement any venue and looks particularly beautiful for an outdoor ceremony. When it comes to your bridal party, we love the idea of dressing your maids in mix-and-match dress styles to let their individual personalities shine. For the groomsmen, we recommend pairing their Juniper-colored tie or bowtie with a light grey suit or classic black tux.

Cheers to That

Winter Wedding Dress Styles and Accessories

Planning a December, January or February wedding? Dress for the season with lacy sleeves, intricate layers, and warm wraps! Ready to find the perfect dress for your winter wedding? Read on for some winter wedding dress ideas to get you started!

Ball Gowns

Style WG3979

Layers are a must for a wintery wedding day, consider a ball gown with endless yards of organza, lace, or tulle! Ball gowns with intricate lace and beading are perfect for a more traditional bridal look. For a more updated touch, try a sleek and unembellished ball gown for a modern and sophisticated bridal style! If the temp calls for even more cold weather, put on tights underneath your dress for added warmth (no one will be able to tell!).

Lace Wedding Dresses

Style MS251205

Mixing textures add warmth and depth to your winter wedding look! A gown with a combination of ornate lace and tonal beading mimics the intricacy of a snowflake. You can opt for an all-over lace dress or one with perfectly placed lace touches.

Long Sleeves

Style SWG820

A gorgeous gown with lace-adorned long sleeves will keep your arms from feeling chilly on the big day. No matter what silhouette you choose, long sleeves are the perfect way to show off more lace or beaded detail on your gown! Plus, an illusion fabric makes this coverage elegant and adds another dimension to your look.

Subtle Hues

Style SWG862

Blush tones and champagne hues are a subtle alternative to a traditional white gown that will stand out against a snowy backdrop. Soft shades add an ultra-romantic and whimsical touch to your wintery wedding. Consider these off-white tones when finding your winter wedding dress.

Winter Bridesmaid Dresses

Style F20065 & F20131

Dress your wedding party in bridesmaid dresses which feature deep, dark shades that bring to mind a long winter’s night. Rich shades add a pop of color in the wintery months. Sophisticated hues, like Wine and Steel Blue, complement the winter season beautifully. A fabric like satin offers a luxurious shine to contrast the wintery landscape.

Winter Wedding Accessories

Style OW2137, ETTA, IH8481KURH

You’ve found the dress, and now it’s time to accessorize! Stylishly banish the brrrs with a faux-fur capelet. These luxe shawls are equal parts cozy and glamorous, and they pair perfectly with strapless wedding dresses. Looking for a more edgy touch? This vegan leather moto jacket is the perfect addition! Show off your ‘Just Married’ status and stay warm in this chic jacket. We can’t forget about the shoes! No need for your toes to hide all season. Pick a pair with icicle-like crystals to brighten things up!

The Best Shoes For An Outdoor Wedding https://www.davidsbridal.com/blog/wedding-accessories/outdoor-wedding-shoes/ https://www.davidsbridal.com/blog/wedding-accessories/outdoor-wedding-shoes/#respond Wed, 27 Jul 2022 14:00:00 +0000 http://www.davidsbridal.com/blog/?p=15896 Sinking heels are a no-go when battling grass, sand, or uneven surfaces. We’re sharing our picks of the ideal wedding shoes for a outdoor wedding.

The perfect outdoor wedding shoes for your I Do’s!

Sandy beaches and romantic gardens make for stunning wedding ceremony backdrops, but an outdoor wedding may leave you wondering what you should wear on your feet. Sinking heels are a no-go when battling grass, sand, or uneven surfaces. We’re sharing our picks for the ideal outdoor wedding shoes for the bride, bridal party and guests too.

Sandals

Style STEVEE, AUBREE, GEMMA

While sandals are especially perfect for a beach wedding, the flat soles are ideal for any wedding venue. Whether you change into them for dancing or are just simply not a heel girl, a pair of sandals are the foolproof solution to any wedding shoe catastrophes. Choosing a pair with added jewels will help keep the look chic while adding some bling. Tying the knot in the sand and want to ditch shoes completely? Foot jewelry  is a pretty finishing touch.

Flats

Style TYME, AVIE, ANTONIA

Similar to sandals, flats are a top choice for all day comfort, especially for a more formal event or venue. The absence of a heel makes mingling around the reception and twirling around the dance floor a breeze!

Wedges

Style ETTA, SHYLA, FRIEND

Looking for a little added heel height but don’t want to compromise on built-in stability? Wedding wedges keep you above ground for the day-of. They offer the allure of a heel but the comfort of a flat. The flat platform will help you better navigate around uneven surfaces and keep you from sinking in. And best of all, with so many options to choose from, you’ll find a favorite with details fit for a formal (think winery) or more casual (like a backyard) affair.

Block Heels

Style KAYA, CALE, RISSA

You can never go wrong with a trendy block heel! The thick heel offers more balance and makes walking in them so much easier than a pair of sky high stilettos. Where a thin heel risks sinking into the grass, a block heel will keep you stable and makes walking across an outdoor venue easy and effortless.

Heel Helpers

outdoor wedding shoes heel helpers

If you are totally a pump or heel girl and can’t bear to part with the perfect shoe for your gown, we totally understand. Place a cap on your heel for minimal sinking and for some added support. The Solemates heel protector (available at your local store!) makes uneven surfaces stable and grassy lawns impenetrable. Win/win!

The style options are endless when it comes to finding the perfect pair of shoes for your outdoor event! With so many different styles, you don’t have to compromise on the look you are going for. For more inspiration for your outdoor wedding shoes, our unconventional bridal shoe guide has even more possibilities to offer! Find these styles and more at your local David’s Bridal or shop with us online at davidsbridal.com!
