Spring and Falls Beauty

Have you ever seen Reem Acra wedding gowns? Here are just some of my picks from her spring and fall 2013 collections. The first few are from her spring and then it goes into her fall collection. I have one word for these gowns amazing. However, I could not just include her wedding gowns but also included a fun short reception gown. It seems the two dress trend is still going strong ladies. We can see that from her spring collection especially so into her fall collection. And what girl wouldn’t want two dresses for here wedding day. It seems like most brides want tradition for the ceremony. Then they want to enjoy themselves more with a more laid back movable dress that allows them to enjoy their reception with more ease.

I love that this designer is giving both the option of the traditional and the fun and flirty shorter reception dress. And I don’t even have to mention how beautiful her gowns are with the laces she uses and the beading detail. Let me know which dresses here are your favorite? And make sure to check out the the entire collection and here site.

Spring Collection 2013

These illusion necklines with their beading detail are just so incredibly pretty. I love the light airy romantic feel of her spring line.

Fall Collection 2013

Her fall line has heavier embroidery that is bolder with a mix of longer sleeves and heavier fabrics. Either way I love the more regal feelings of this collection.

And of course I saved the best for last! This gown has to be by far one of my favorites. The heavy lace, peplum, mermaid silhouette, higher neckline and long sleeves are a breathtaking combination.

Beautiful Scottish Inspired Wedding

Happy St. Patrick’s Day I hope you are wearing green so that you don’t get pinched this St. Patty’s Day. Eternel Trésor also hopes you have a wonderful day whether you are celebrating with family or friends.

Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. I wanted to share with you this beautiful Scottish themed wedding. Both the bride and groom wanted to find a way to incorporate their heritage into their wedding. What a pretty way to blend both your heritage and your wedding day together into one of the most magical days of your life. This wedding is full of fun with skittle favors, kilts, and the wedding party having a great time at the reception. I hope that you enjoy this fun Scottish themed wedding just as much as I did.

The bride put a lot of thought into the bridesmaid favors as well. One touching thing she did was wear and have all her maids wear a breast cancer bracelet. It was a way for her and her bridesmaids to remember someone very dear to her that she lost from breast cancer.

These wedding favors are adorable! The bride loves skittles so she wanted to make them her wedding favor. It is also the way the groom proposed to her. The groom proposed with a bag of skittles.
