One of my clients this year was a bride whose style is a lot like mine. She came to me for a consultation and told me that her colors were hot pink, canary yellow, and apple green. So fun! Yay! Her wedding floral designs were glamorous and funky and her personality is type A all the way. She was so organized and on top of everything - she could become a fabulous professional event planner if she wanted to. The day of her wedding, I was at the venue with my team, delivering and installing the flowers, when I saw the bride in her dress. Wow! I have been to a lot of weddings and seen a lot of wedding dresses but this dress was absolutely stunning! If I were getting married again, this is the dress I would want for myself! It's a 2008 Manuel Mota gown named Camara. The bodice and straps have unfinished raw edges and tiers of romantic ruffles fall from the skirt. I'm not sure what material the fabric is but the whole dress has a kind of elegantly crinkled look. There is a brooch-like embellishment of large rhinestones and opalescent white stones at the bottom of the v neckline and more stones that circle the bodice for a defined waist and a lovely silhouette. I love working with brides with different style preferences, and can accommodate most styles but it was just uncanny how similar this particular bride's sense of style was to my own!
