Sneak Peek 2010 October 8, 2009

Filed under: bridal dresses, bridal gowns, wedding dresses, wedding gowns — thebridalboutique @ 9:27 pm

The Spring 2010 Chicago Bridal Market was a success and we are excited to be able to bring you gorgeous, fashion-forward gowns in the coming months! You will see beautiful new designs by Paloma Blanca, Casablanca, Sophia Tolli, and Alfred Angelo.

 

When we go to Market, one of our most important goals is to find styles that fit what our brides have been asking for. We looked high and low at Market searching for a fabulous AFFORDABLE line to showcase at the boutique in 2010 and we think we may have found it!  Check out the photos below of the wonderful styling of Niki Livas “White”: capturing the youthful spirit of soft draping with a collection of sophisticated bridal gowns for the ceremony, for the reception… for your spotlight moment.

 

The Niki Livas “White” Collection will be available in sizes 2 – 16 and will retail between $250 and $575.
