Alfred Angelo has continued their Disney Fairy Tale wedding dress line in 2012. Their romantic flare is executed in each iconic Disney princess; Jasmine, Cinderella, Belle, Snow White, Ariel, Tiana, Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty.
Each design has been modified to fit the modern-day sophisticated bride. The dresses have contemporary twists like asymmetrical designs, floral belts, dropped waists, rosettes, and organza ruffles. Of course any princess line would not be complete without its share of tulle ball gowns and flattering mermaid silhouettes. Alfred Angelo offers quality gowns for affordable prices that can fit into anyone’s budget. Check out one of our favorite Disney Fairy Tale wedding dresses!
The Disney princess Jasmine design is such a unique wedding dress! The strapless top has just enough sparkle with its jewel encrusted details. The bodice has an asymmetrical, dropped waist style that flows down to fun and flirty soft organza ruffles. The corset closure makes this gown flattering in any of their 0-30W sizes offered. The train falls to a semi-cathedral length, offering just enough to show off down the aisle.
The dress is pictured in white with silver accents, but if this shade is not your style, it is also available in ivory with silver accents.

It's no secret that Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman are officially engaged! Anne has always been known for her fashion-forward looks on the Red Carpet. We cannot wait to see what she will wear walking down the aisle!
Will she wear a strapless Greecian-inspired gown like the one she wore to the Oscars earlier this year? Anne's stylist Rachel Zoe avoided a bright white color and choose the gorgeous strapless ivory gown to compliment Anne's light complexion. The detailed bodice gives the actress great definition to her waist. We would love to see Soon to Be Mrs. Shulman in this old Hollywood glam look!
How about a silhouette similar to this magical dress by Valentino she wore to "The White Fairy Tale Love Ball"? This dress truly has a fairy tale essence about it! The sheer skirt creates a sexy look while still maintaining a romantic feel with the elegant cap sleeves. This dress compliments Anne's figure, from the length of the bodice to the way the ruffles elegantly flow down the dress. Does Anne want soft chiffon ruffles on her wedding dress too? If you are interested in a wedding gown with soft chiffon ruffles too, Eden Bridal's 1380 dress may be perfect for you!
Maybe Anne Hathaway will wear a traditional princess ball gown! She definitely has the height to wear a wedding gown with a complete tulle skirt. The plunging neckline and high empire waist are a perfect combination of classy and sexy, exactly what Anne is known for! Seeing as this is another Valentino gown, could we possibly see a Valentino wedding gown in the future?
We are sure Anne will look impeccable on her special day! What type of dress do you think Anne Hathaway will wear on her wedding day?

If you are a bride-to-be, I am sure more than once you have watched "My Fair Wedding" on WE TV, hosted by wedding planner to the stars, David Tutera. We all sit at the edge of our seats and watch as he turns an ordinary wedding into the astonishing wedding the bride has dreamed about since she was a little girl.
David Tutera has teamed up with the bridal industry expert himself, Martin Thornburg (designer for Mon Cheri Bridals) to create the David Tutera for Mon Cheri collection. David Tutera for Mon Cheri is a wedding dress collection that offers today's bride with many high end fashion bridal gowns at an affordable price. The collection ranges from $800 - $1600 and will be in stores in 2012. Take a look below at a few of my personal favorites.
Hermosa by David Tutera is a striking strapless fit and flare bridal gown. Made from organza fabric, this stylish dress features a sweetheart neckline, ruched bodice and a beautiful belt adorned with beads, jewels and three-dimensional flowers. The full skirt is ruffled with feathers and has a chapel length train. This dress is simply breath taking.
Damia by David Tutera is a chic satin and lace two piece dress. One piece is the strapless mermaid gown that features an arched neckline and sweep train. And the second piece is an off the shoulder lace bolero with a three quarter inch sleeve and back covered button closures. This dress is absolutely stunning and very Jackie O!
Milena by David Tutera is one of the new bridal trends for 2012 - pink colored bridal gowns! This strapless taffeta gown is rose colored but also comes in white or ivory. This modified mermaid gown features a scalloped neckline, and a hand beaded lace appliquéd bodice. The draped ruffled multi tiered skirt reveals a tulle underskirt and chapel length train.
Traditional bridal gowns, informal dresses and high couture fashion make up the David Tutera for Mon Cheri Collection.

It's your special day and your bridal gown is one of the most memorable parts of that day. So why not start the memories at the beginning by having the experience of a full service bridal store.
Yes you can buy online, or you can go to an event like the running of the brides or a bridal event on tour, but you will be truly missing the experience of having a knowledgeable sales consultant helping you find the right bridal gown for your venue, your personality, your body and you.
Do you want the tears you shed over your dress to be because you pass up going to a bridal shop and decide to go to a running of the brides and the first tear you shed is from someone stepping on your foot. Or you cry tears of frustration when you realized that you wasted your time going to an event only to find clearance dresses, portable fitting rooms, no service or selection. How about when you open the box of the dress you bought online only to realize that the quality is horrible or the fit and style was not doing anything for you. And in some cases not the dress you were expecting to receive because your online retailer was not an authorized retailer , or it may even be counterfeit design bridal gown. For this reason the government has seized many domain names of sites accused of selling knock-off merchandise to innocent shoppers who are really in search for a good bargain. When making a purchase as important as a designer bridal gown, going to a full service bridal shop and seeing it in person or trying it on is much more satisfying and gives you the wonderfull experience of bridal gown shopping that you deserve.
At a bridal store you can choose from so many styles before you decide on the right one. You may be thinking of a fairytale bridal gown style until the consultant says have you considered a mermaid style for your body shape. Or make a full swing from wanting a plain wedding dress to being blown away by a beaded formal wedding gown. These choices can only be made when you have the comfort and guidance of a full service store. There is nothing better than hearing a bridal party break into applause when a bride says this is the dress or the tears in a mothers eye when she sees her daughter on a pedestal in front of a mirror in a bridal gown, or a dad that has to walk away because he is so choked up. Now this is the way to start those memories off.
We would love to hear your bridal gown shopping experiences!

Mermaid wedding dresses are perfect for showing off an hourglass figure! It is for the fashion forward bride who isn’t afraid of being sexy and modern on her wedding day. The mermaid silhouette can come in a variety of fabrics, whether you prefer lace, satin, chiffon, tulle or taffeta.
One of our favorite mermaid styles is Maggie Sottero’s Adeline. It has an old Hollywood look that compliments a curvy figure. The dress is available in Bordeaux taffeta or L’Amour satin (Adeline Marie). It has a dramatic strapless sweetheart neckline adorned with Swarovski crystals. The corset back allows for a custom slimming fit while the bubble hem adds glamour to the look. This dress is available in White, Diamond White/Pewter accent and Ivory/Pewter accent.
Sophia Tolli has a lace mermaid wedding gown style Y2945 Allanah. It is a strapless vintage glam dress that had the option of coming in heavy lace, light lace or Paris satin. Hand beaded appliqués accentuate the left side of the waist and the right side of the skirt. The dress is available with a zipper or corset back. It also has removable straps for when the party gets started; the bride doesn’t need to worry about tugging at the strapless top all night. The Allanah dress comes in Ivory, Diamond White, White and Alabaster.
Another great mermaid style is from Mori Lee style 1619. The bodice is ruched down to the mid-thigh and transforms into a fully ruffled tulle skirt. The delicate beading along the sweetheart bust line and bodice adds just enough sparkle to this fun and flirty gown. Along the corset back the beads follow the flow of the lacing, creating a stunning look. It is available in White/Silver accent and Ivory/Silver accent.
