2010 Wedding Trends – Bridal Gowns
Dec 28th, 2009 | By Cherie | Category: Bridal Gown, What's NewAlthough the traditional white wedding gowns are still in, many brides are starting to add their own flavor, touch, or personality as you call it. It is going to be an exciting year for brides of 2010. As we will be seeing more layerings! more ruffles! more dramatic! And one thing for sure: ballgowns are back [w/ a modern twist, of course..i'm seeing TULLE]!!
1. Florals- more and more wedding gowns are embellished with florals on the dress, train, and / or the veil. The detailing of these gowns make the dress so gorgeous and feminine. I heard amazing dresses by Melissa Sweet and I really wanted to share with you her work so I searched and found some of her dresses from whowhatweddings.com.

2. Tulle – this style will be popular for Spring 2010. Not only will you find tulle in full ball gown skirts, they will be used for patterns / texture, or you’ll see them in little bunches at the waist or necklines.

3. Short and Sweet – i think one of the hottest wedding trends is wearing a short wedding dress. This type of dress is perfect for the fun and trendy brides. I’ve also seen brides changed into this style of short wedding dress during the reception to dance the night away.

4. Asymmetrical / One Shoulder Gowns – this has been a trend for 2009 but I think it will rollover to 2010. The classic strapless wedding gowns will always be around and will always look good, but there’s something about one shoulder gowns that makes it more elegant, in my opinion.
