Lace Bridesmaid Dresses

The beauty of lace is that no matter how simple or complex the pattern, it always looks romantic, luxurious and demure.


It's all about that lace.

Right from the moment when Kate Middelton stepped out of the Goring Hotel into the awaiting Rolls Royce on April 29th 2011, lace was back as a serious part of the wedding outfit. And it hasn't looked back since.

The beauty of lace is that no matter how simple or complex the pattern, it always looks romantic, luxurious and demure. And so easy to tie that look in with your bouquet using ethereal flowers of gypsophila, or baby's breath. It is no surprise that Gypsophila means 'pure of heart' and 'innocence' when you see its fragile mist of blooms and its delicate scent is said to be as sweet as a baby's breath.

And of course, lace needn't be confined to the bride.

Dressing your bridesmaids in gowns that echo one or two of the features on your own dress can add a subtle coherence to the whole ensemble. In particular, white lace over a soft color can create a beautiful effect that adds depth and harmony to the bridal party.

For Spring or Summer weddings, lace bridesmaid dresses with white lace overlaying on pastel can theme perfectly with the seasonal flowers in your bouquet.
