Get beauty on a budget on your special day

Awhile back, I read a post on one of my favourite blogs about one of my favourite designers. Weddings and Vera Wang go together like cupcakes and champagne, cashmere and class.  While I may fantasize about wearing a custom Elie Saab, or Marchesa, they sadly have yet to come out with a diffusion line of wedding gowns like Vera Wang has with David's Bridal called White by Vera Wang.

With gowns ranging in price from $600-$1400, these beautiful creations allow you to glam up to your wildest dreams while still maintaining a very earthly budget.  I would certainly love to wear any of these one day in the future!


Excess is what is happening here all over and I love it.


Opt for something other than traditional right with this gorgeously cascading pink gown.  This pretty confection reminds me of the icing on a perfectly baked cupcake.


Had to include this number whose modest covered sleeves remind me of the royal wedding gown!

When the day comes, you'll rock whatever dress you choose to wear.

So beautiful! And what a great idea to create a diffusion line. It's quite insane how much money one ends up spending on wedding dresses. I adore the ruffled layers of the second dress... so beautiful.

that dress makes me want to get marry.

I observed the table games in the casino, but my nearly complete inability to understand Spanish kept me from trying them. So I headed over to the slot machines. The first one took my $20, but the 2nd one I tried kept giving me bonus rounds, so I bet the maximum and won $200+ on 2 bonus rounds. It was fun.

oh how awesome. i absolutely love the second dress the color and the style is perfect. its definitely a different take on something traditional, but it's also not outrageously different that it's far from traditional. :) lovee it. and the prices are definitely much more affordable than what someone would dish out for a dress.
