Wedding Trends: The Dress

We see so many beautiful wedding gowns out here at Integrity Hills we have picked up on a few trends that we think are here to stay through this wedding season. We put a few categories together to let you in on the scoop of what we see brides wearing now! 

Sash or belt:
This has been a huge trend recently! Whether it is beaded, sequined, a different color, or a piece of another dress that is sentimental... this look is one that is sweeping the wedding world! We love how Integrity Hills bride, Kelsey, paired a sash with crystals and beads on it with her lace and tulle dress. It transforms the dress completely! 


The lace or beading edged veil:
These lovely brides each wore a beaded or lace trimmed veil that coordinated with their gown. This trend is the perfect way to add a little sparkle to a classic dress. Richelle's veil (bottom photo) had lace that matched her dress exactly, so divine! 


Lace applique on tulle:
This trend is one that we are falling head over heels for! Lace applique is when a portion of lace like a flower group or other design is adhered to another material. It can be attached to satin, silk, other laces, and our new favorite, tulle. This photo of Betsy shows her dress off so well and you can see the lace areas on her skirt. We love this design on a ball gown or gathered tulle skirt because it gives the wonderful movement and lightness of tulle with the stunning beauty of lace.



Sweetheart Neckline:
An obvious favorite perhaps, but a definite favorite! The sweetheart neckline is flattering on literally any body type. It can be worn on a lace, satin, organza, silk, or  really any material of dress. We love that is shows off collarbones and shoulders and with the center pointing down it gives the illusion of a smaller waist due to the higher outside edges appearing larger and becoming the focus of the eye.
