The Perfect Bag with the Perfect Dress

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

It’s no big secret that the star of the show, other than the bride herself, on your wedding day is the wedding dress.  You want it to be the perfect shade, the perfect cut, the perfect length.  Of course it will be, because you will spend hours and even days in search of that one gown or dress that makes you exclaim “This is the one!”

What about what you choose to accent the dress, though?  Wedding accessories are an important part of our overall look that day. Most brides easily consider their shoes, earrings, necklace, bracelet … even making sure to have something borrowed and something blue.  Few brides give a lot of thought to a handbag, though.  While you are not likely to be walking down the aisle with a purse, you may very well want something small to keep with you at the reception, and you are going to want it to look fabulous with your dress!

David’s Bridal has a wonderful selection of handbags that are delicate, perfect complements to the wedding gown and are available in satin, which is dyeable.  If you want a color to match your linens, this is a great idea since you will only be carrying it with you at the reception.  If you want ivory or white to match your gown, this is also easily done.  You can get a bag adorned with gems or sequins, various metal touches, or keep it simple.  The choice is yours to make, so long as you choose to accessorize with style on your big day!

Wedding Shoes for Every Style Occasion

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

Every woman knows that shoes can make or break an outfit, and the rule is especially true for special occasions.  This very important accessory helps pull everything together. What shoes could possibly be more important than the ones you’ll wear at your wedding?  The bride is the star of the day, and the right shoes will help you shine as brightly as you can. 

David’s Bridal has a host of accessories such as shoes, jewelry, headpieces and veils to complement the gorgeous dress that you’ll be wearing.  The wedding shoes are one of the most important accessories that help show off the gown and the bride herself.  A vast array of shoes for the bride can be found, from pumps and high heels to sandals and flats.  Depending on the style of wedding and the season, you can choose a more casual shoe or a formal shoe, contemporary or traditional, closed toe or open toe (or try a fashionable peep-toe style).  There are many dyeable shoe options that can be worn as white satin or hand-dyed in David’s Bridal stores to coordinate with any just about any color scheme.

Shoes for the bride are not the only shoe accessory David’s Bridal has to offer.  There are wedding shoes for bridesmaids, flower girls, moms and anyone else in the bridal party.  These too may be found in white satin that can easily be dyed to coordinate with the bridal party’s dresses or 100 different hues. The bridesmaids can have fun choosing from the great selection of styles and colors.  From playful to elegant shoe styles, every customer will easily be able to find something that fits her taste and occasion.  There are adorable, comfortable shoes appropriate for even the youngest flower girls, as well as a bit more sophisticated styles for the junior bridesmaid.

Whatever your preference, style, and budget, David’s Bridal can meet your needs for wedding shoes for everyone in your bridal party, and help accessorize your special day perfectly.

Read this customer review of David’s Crystal Pave Earrings with Round Crystal Center Stone Drop:

“I have ordered a pair of these earrings for myself to go with my dress, along with the necklace to match. I didn’t want to have anything too “tacky” and something that takes the main beauty away from my dress. These earrings are absolutely perfect and so beautiful! Nicely designed and a good length. I have received them very quickly and I honestly couldn’t have been happier buying these!”
