I dette nummeret

Become a Princess or ‘Queen for the Day’ at your wedding. We explore these thoughts and ideas with some stately styles and designs at our Southern Bride fashion shoot. It didn’t take long for us to pick out one of the most stately, locations to enhance these desires. The Greenbrier located in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia is a National Historic Landmark, and has been opening its doors to Presidents, royalty and celebrities since 1778. Today the resort is known as America’s Resort and the designs of Dorothy Draper live on. Walk through time with us as you view stunning gowns of talented designers of today.

Within our Real Wedding pages, you will find some of those traditions still in place from the Bulgarian wedding of Lana and Rusev, wearing crowns at the ceremony, to the truly artistic designs set forth from our own Art Director, Lindsey Cross at her nuptials to Jeff Lee at another historic landmark, The Hunt-Phelan Home in Memphis, Tennessee.
For some professional advice, renowned jewelry designer Kendra Scott shares some of her inspirations stemming from her own wedding day as well as her love for antique and vintage designs while event designer and lifestyle expert, Mindy Weiss gives some pointers about planning for today’s Southern Brides.
