Fantastic Value Wedding Dresses from Chi Chi London

Its great when you discover new companies in the wedding industry and last week some rather lovely people on the Rock N Roll Bride blog's facebook forum introduced me to the fantastic Chi Chi London http://www.chichiclothing.com/.
As well as some fantastic general clothing and some really lovely options for bridesmaid dresses they do some fantastic dresses in white, ivory and blush which would be amazing wedding dresses ... and they are incredible value too! The dresses are around £60-£100 ..not for everyone I know but if you are after a simple relaxed not particularly traditional feel they are amazing!
Just click on their 'Bridal Beauties' Section which has some lovely matching accessories http://www.chichiclothing.com/categories/Clothing/Bridal-Beauties/

Here are my favourites ...

And just a couple of the dresses on the site which I think would be perfect for bridesmaids ...

 



New Collection Of Wedding Dresses from Monsoon

 

To round up the week I just had to share with you some of the new wedding dresses and accessories that are available from the new www.monsoon.co.uk bridal collection ... I think this fantastic high street store have outdone themselves this season with some amazingly priced and bang on trend dresses - perfect for any bride whether they be Boho, Deco or Fifties Inspired.

Its definitely worth a look!

 

I think my favourite has to be the fifties inspired one above and the gorgeous sixties Jackie O style coat. What do you think ?

New Wedding Dress Collection from Kitty & Dulcie

One of my favourite brands in the wedding industry is Kitty & Dulcie ... so I was very excited to see their new collection for 2015 - Village Affair.
Kitty & Dulcie make the most amazingly affordable and bang on trend wedding dresses ( and now bridesmaid dresses! ). With prices starting from as little as £250 .. yes really! ... if you are are on a budget but don't want to compromise on style they really are an excellent option.
Because there is no shop and all orders are taken online it really keeps the costs down.
Just take a look at http://kittyanddulcie.com

There are 4 new dresses in the 2015 collection, one gorgeous matching lace bolero and the most adorable polka dot bridesmaid dresses which are only £40 and available in a wide range of colours!
My favourite is definitely Betty Blossom below ...

Gorgeous New Great Value Wedding Dresses!

I'm delighted to share with you today the new collection of wedding dresses from one of my favourite wedding companies 'Kitty & Dulcie' http://www.kittyanddulcie.com/
Kitty & Dulcie's gorgeous vintage inspired dresses are sold only via their online boutique and because of this they are able to keep their prices incredibly low ... none of their dresses are above £400! However, in my opinion, they are spot on in style!

The new range which launched this week is called the 'Got The Love' Collection and features 4 brand new dress designs, a veil and a gorgeous little jacket.
My absolute favourite is the 'Crazy For You' Dress below ... but then I am a sucker for a short style wedding dress!

 

Short Wedding Dresses

I'm a sucker for a short or knee length wedding dress ... I look dreadful in maxi dresses so its probably not surprising.
I always find there are many brides who opt for a longer dress just because its traditional and not necessarily because it suits them. Of course if you want to stick with tradition that's absolutely your choice but considering a shorter dress ... especially if you are a little shorter yourself and worried that a longer dress might swamp you ... is definitely an option.
You may also want, if its in your budget, to consider wearing a more formal long dress during your ceremony but change into something a bit shorter and more 'danceable' for your evening reception!

Either way two of my favourite sites www.bhldn.com and www.kittyanddulcie.com have some lovely options for shorter wedding dresses.
