Alter Yourself for Vera?

by Calder Clark on November 20th, 2009

Amid the rustle and bustle of trying on gowns, one of our brides was recently told: ‘You don’t wear Vera, Vera wears you.’ We thought that was hilarious, but fitting: the gowns are absolutely stunning down to the daintiest covered button, and they are not cut for those who want ample breathing room on the big day. We think that was a derivation of Kate Hudson’s line from Bride Wars: “You don’t alter Vera to fit you, you alter yourself to fit Vera!”

Below are a few gorgeous pictures of a few of our brides who have donned the sought-after designer’s gowns:

Per the designer, “For the latest collection, ribbons, buttons, bows and blossoms add to the overall whimsy and lightness in an entirely modern take on wedding fantasy. Asymmetrical draping, random gathers and all sorts of scattered decorative touches add to the eccentricity and artistry of this collection.”

Vera Wang Trunk Show

Our fabulous Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighbor, Maddison Row, is hosting a Vera Wang Trunk Show ~ Spring 2010 Bridal Collection starting today. It’s like wedding central in our ‘hood.

The trunk show is by appointment only, and brides will receive 10% off any Vera Wang gown order this weekend only. Call 843-720-7979 to schedule an appointment!
