ELEGANTLY SOFT, ROMANTIC, & JUST TOO ADORABLE! - Inspiration for Dr. JV

When Dr. JV came into the studio with the wedding cards she designed herself, I couldn't help but admire the adorable little Owl couple she used as her theme.  The Bride Owl had a veil too!  Imagine the fun love story behind that!

Pocket Wedding Dress: A Special Sweet Drama

{A sneak peak from the YOUtique Bridal Studio : A Custom gown with pockets for a modern sophisticated summer Bride, LMT.  I can't wait until this gown is complete & see it all come together.}


I adore pockets.  They are a hip & chic way to make a wedding gown functional.  It can store tissues for those tearful moments or even hide your lipgloss for that quick touch-up.  On most Wedding gowns that have them, they are discreet when your hands are not in them so no worries about taking away the elegance from the dress.  


And if you are shy, it gives you something to do with your hands when you are not carrying your bouquet.  What a special sweet drama!  

Here are some great inspirational Wedding gowns with pockets:

1. Alvena Valenta Style 9008
2. Paloma Blanca style 4004
3. Rosa Clara
4. Priscilla of Boston Style 4509
