A-line wedding dresses are very simple and elegant. Going in at the waist and flaring out through the hips, these dresses flatter all shapes and sizes. Make the dress more uniquely yours by adding little details such as a floral pattern and/or nude underlining!

Did you always dream of being a princess when you grew up? Ball gown dresses make those dreams feel like a reality. Similar to a-lines, ball gowns come in at the waist and extend out through the hips, creating that fairy-tale look! Many brides today are wearing an off-the-shoulder neckline to enhance that princess feeling.

Another dress that reveals your stunning silhouette is sheath, although its material is much lighter. This dress is meant for smaller frames, and can be easily detailed with rhinestones, lace, feathers, and more. Add a high slit to show off your favorite shoes or slender legs!
