Being a CB Bride means saying yes to style, confidence, and a one-of-a-kind experience. We love having fun with our brides during their styling sessions and we are honored to bring their dream look to life. Planning your wedding wardrobe is such a unique and personal experience. That’s why we’ve put together this list of top bridal gown trends in Austin Texas – here’s what our brides are loving!
The Dress Style
We love mixed fabrics for the ceremony gown. Mixed fabrics curate many types of overall styles.
- For the romantic vintage bride: Organza and silk are the perfect mix, Australian Designer J. Andreatta brings this aesthetic to life with dreamy silks and silhouettes like the Bessette gown pictured above. We love mixed fabrics for the ceremony gown!
- For a sultry feel: You might go for silk tulle over a classic French Chantilly lace.
- Elegant and bold: A textured Mikado with satin or silk accents. Our favorite is the Prea James Maho gown.
- Separate Pieces: Completely tailor your overall look with separates to fit the setting and mood of your wedding. Half Penny London is celebrated for her separate pieces; our favorite look was mixing her Okotan Corset with the Spencer skirt.
- Classic and timeless: A sweetheart neckline is a flattering cut on almost everyone. It also shows some skin without being overly sexy. Our designer, Eisen Stein has delicate sweetheart necklines, adding even more romance to their hand-crafted lace gowns.
- Fashion-forward brides: Choose a scoop neckline with cat eyes instead! Both sweetheart and scoop necklines are sweet and feminine without showing too much skin. Add a scarf, and you have a fashion-forward moment that showcases some skin with the illusion of a high neck.
The Makeup Look
Natural Skin and Soft Glam.
Peachy tones and neutrals, with a focus on glowy, natural skin. Most brides start their skincare journey about a year in advance. Booking routine facials and pampering the needs of their skin.
Booking several trials for makeup and hair is a must! Your trials should be an open discussion with your stylist about what your dream look is, what flatters your skin tone, and activities happening the day of. Your makeup trials should also give you an idea of the longevity of your hair and makeup.
The Finishing Touches
Veils, Nails, and Accessories!
- The biggest trends for veils: Lace. We love this trend; it’s extremely romantic and adds drama to any dress. Cathedral veils are another request we get from our brides. Cathedral veils (108 inches to 120 inches) are breathtaking and showstopping. Brides are also loving vintage lace veils.
- Don’t forget about your mani and pedi: For the best ring and bouquet pictures, a natural manicure. A chromed neutral is always a go-to!
- What was long ago a taboo is today’s biggest trend: Mixing pearls and diamonds is in! The finishing touches of your bridal look should also be extra special. Mixing pearls with sparkly diamonds takes on a traditional accessory and modernizes it. Browse our luxury designers, Jennifer Behr and Chan Luu at our boutique.
