BRIDAL JEWELRY: TATABORELLO

I am loving how exquisite and completely unique these pieces are from Tataborello. The mix of silk flower petals, Swarovski crystals and pearls blend together to create something that will add the perfect finishing touches to your wedding ensemble. Definitely one to think about when you are looking for bridal jewelry.

RING PILLOWS: BEAUTIFUL PILLOW AT BAB'S BOUTIQUE

I love the big beautiful pink flower on this ring pillow by Bab's Boutique.

WEDDING VEILS: NINA SHOES

I had no idea that Nina Shoes (famous for their evening and bridal shoes) sell wedding veils. They actually have some beautiful styles available. See this one and their entire line on their web site.

WEDDING CAKES: UNIQUE WEDDING CAKES AT PINK CAKE BOX

Love this adorable and unique wedding cake from Pink Cake Box. They are definitely one of the places to go to get a wedding cake that is not quite your typical wedding cake.

WEDDING CAKE TOPPERS: JAYNE DANGER

Totally love a cutesy wedding cake topper. Definitely have to admit that octopus bride and groom cake topper is cute (but weird, too). So if you want something totally unique and different, this is probably an option. Available at Jayne Danger.

WEDDING DRESSES: DESIGNER TONY HAMAWY

While I was at Bridal Market last October, I met this amazing designer, Tony Hamawy. He had the most beautiful gowns (bridal and special occasion). I was floored. I sat and talked with him for quite some time. His passion for fashion design and his feelings about how a woman should look on her wedding day simply moved me. I was glad that he let me take some photographs in his booth. So that I could bring this talented designer to your attention. These were my favs:

NY BRIDAL FASHION WEEK: ANNE BARGE SPRING 2012

Modern Wedding Dresses at Anne Barge

Modern wedding dresses walked the runway at Anne Barge. Her Spring 2012 collection was full of romance and softness with dresses covered lace in 3-dimensional embroidery and jewel-encrusted beading. Of course, there was the ode to Kate Middleton that was seen on almost all of the bridal runway show this season. There is a definitely call to bring back the modesty that brides once displayed on their wedding day.
