Must Have: Bridal Handbag!

Your wedding day look has to be perfect, from the top of your head to the tips of your toes, you will want to feel gorgeous. For all those ladies who have not yet been brides, the whole fuss surrounding the dress and everything related to a bride’s look on her big day may at times feel overwhelming. But the truth is that when we do reach that moment, each and every one of us are equally nervous about pulling off the perfect appearance for such a big day.

You’ve already chosen your dress, your jewelry and, if you have been “hardworking” until now, you may have even thought of a head piece or a hair style. That’s great! But another item you may not have thought about and may not want to miss out on is one accessory every lady should consider: the handbag. How do you pick your bridal handbag? Here are some suggestions:

• You don’t necessarily have to go for something that is white (or the same shade of white as the dress). You can bring in some color with your bridal look by choosing something in a very beautiful bright or pastel color. Choose a pop of color that reflects your personality!
• Don’t be afraid to shine! If you want your handbag to look amazing, don’t miss out on the wonderful glamour sequins can bring into the day. There are many tasteful designs out there: some are silver-colored, some have many colors. 
• You can pair your handbag with the color of your bridesmaids’ dresses or with the color of your/their shoes. When taking pictures, this will look amazing against your beautiful gown!
• Clutch purses and envelope handbags are great options when it comes to the type of handbag you will need, as they are always elegant and classy.

For bridal handbags to “die” for, visit Suzanne’s Bridal Boutique. We have a very nice collection of bridal accessories in store for you: charming, elegant, stylish and beautiful. Come and pay us a visit!

The Perfect Something Blue

Even the least traditional brides opt to have something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue for their wedding day. The something blue gives you a chance to be creative and add a bit of fun to your wedding attire.

If you’re shopping for something blue and want it to really make a statement, consider a blue wedding dress. Non-white dresses are a big bridal trend for 2013 and 2014. A pale blue dress is a delicate style, while a deep sapphire tone is an elegant choice.

A white dress can be accented with blue, too. A sash is the perfect way to add a splash of color while still wearing white. Sashes are available in a wide range of colors, and can suit many different styles of gown.

Our seamstress, Suzanne, added the blue accents to this gown by Moonlight Bridal.

Of course, there are many more ways to wear your something blue. Blue accessories are great for many brides. Blue shoes can be a fun way to add color to your outfit, while blue jewelry can be a classic choice.

Finding a Gown as an Older Bride

Searching for your perfect wedding dress can be fun, but for many brides it can also be stressful. If you’re an older bride, you might not feel like you can wear some styles of gown. However, whatever your age, there is an ideal gown for you.

The main thing to think about is what you find comfortable and beautiful. If you really love a particular style of wedding gown, there’s nothing to stop you from wearing it. There are no etiquette or style 

rules that put age limits on wedding gown styles!

If you don’t feel like wearing a big white gown is right for you as an older bride, you don’t need to wear one. Instead, you can wear an evening gown in another color, or even a bridal suit.

Before you make any decision about what you should or shouldn’t wear for your wedding day, you should come to an excellent Arizona bridal salon. At Suzanne’s Bridal Boutique, our experts can help you find the perfect wedding style for you. Give us a call or come by our Gilbert salon today!

Real Bride - Rebecca's Vision of Lace

Rebecca came to us with specifications; She needed a temple build up, and a beautiful gown. After finding a stunning and simple lace dress, (referred to at the store as the “chunky lace"dress) we had one requirement taken care of…

 Rebecca did some gown research, and decided that she wanted to go with a lined half sleeve, taking care of her other requirement! So now that we had worked out the type of sleeve she envisioned, we turned the creative process over to Suzanne, our AMAZING seamstress. 

Rebecca gave us her vision and  her gown was everything she hoped and wished it would be! If you have any special requirements, we can help!
