Through the years...

We've all seen the past wedding pictures and wondered how that was ever a "good look" way when so in honor of Throwback Thursday, we thought we'd take you on a little ride through memory lane...

1980s Weddings –
 
Although weddings of the 80s were a simpler affair than the blowout bashes people throw nowadays, couples did go over the top when it came to the hair, the amount of fabric, and the prevalence of lace. The popularity of the puffy sleeve, and flowing lacy sleeves complimenting the detailed cathedral train made quite the statement alongside some groom’s white suit, or traditional morning suit. And of course…the bigger the hair, the better!

1990s Weddings  -
 
As far as dress styles go, puffy sleeves off the shoulder are IN! It’s hard to find a bride from the 90s that did not succumb to this trend as they held their colorful cascading bouquet. From accessorizing their dos with the headband veil, to the super short bangs, 90s weddings are chock-full of cringe-worthy hairstyles and the popularity of ladies perming their hair within an inch of their life has them looking back and saying “what was I thinking?!”

2000s Weddings –
 
Personality began to really play a role in bridal fashions in the early 2000s. Long sleeves and ball gowns became popular and sculpting your fashion and wedding design around your interests made the event more personal.  Fancy prom like updos became popular and the simplicity was unlike any other decade before.

Today -
 
Weddings nowadays have made so many changes from the past it’s unreal! Themed weddings, personalized everything for the bride and groom, thousands of bridal fashions from form fitting, to a modern princess flare, today’s weddings are an out of this world celebratory statement. Flowing curls, half up and down, messy and side buns, updos, flowers, diamonds, retro, classy, chic, long and short veils, or maybe no veil at all – the possibilities are endless and no bride is every the same anymore. Each bride and each wedding is different and fully customized. However, one thing that is unanimous…the puffy sleeves are out!
