Parting Ensembles
A much-revered Southern tradition, the “outfit change” used to symbolize the subtle shift from Daddy’s girl to newlywed embarking on her honeymoon. These days, many of our brides stroll out of their receptions in their lovely gowns, which is simple and timeless. However, we still see some of our brides choose to depart in the most darling conservative cruise-wear-apropos ensembles involving spritely peplum car coats and colorful capris, replete with delicate ballet flats. Others choose Chanel-inspired dapper little skirt suits or simple colorful shifts, accessorized with super current layered necklaces juxtaposed with heirloom pearls. Still more choose a second dress … often a shorter, flirtier cocktail number appropriate for a late night rug-cutting session at an after-party. Sequins are so “now” as are shorter hemlines and bold color; just be sure to eschew wearing all three trends at once.
