    5 Bridal Hair Accessory Companies You NEED to Know About

I don't even like those. BUT SERIOUS TALK: ----> the bridal hair accessory challenge is real. I mean, sure-- there are a million options available on Etsy at any given moment, but if you are looking for truly original, extremely well-crafted wedding hair accessories, then you might find it difficult without any prior knowledge of the wedding industry. Lucky for you, we have been studying the world of bridal for the past ten years and have FIVE suggestions for you regarding where to go to buy the perfect wedding hair accessories-- be it a bow, a comb, a headband or a barrette!!

    The Ten Best Bridal Bathing Suits To Buy RIGHT NOW

    By Sarah Dobson
    I love a good bathing suit. Er-- a good bikini. Er-- a good one piece. Er-- a good cover up. And do you know what? I don't think I know a single female friend who doesn't. In fact, it's actually hilarious to me that every friend I have owns an entire drawer of bathing suits. Like, why do we need so many? What's the magic behind a fantastic bikini? Truth fast: I don't think we will EVER KNOW but I know one thing FOR SURE: when it comes to bridal swimwear, the female in me goes into overdrive. Seriously, I could stare at bridal swimwear for hours and never get bored (which is funny because there is essentially very little differentiation between hundreds of white bathings suits.) 
    BUT STILL. They are my favorite thing to shop for after the dress itself, which is why we are dedicating today's article to the best bridal bathing suits on the market in 2022!! (Bonus points for it being summer at this very moment too!) 
    If you are looking for a fantastic bikini for either your bachelorette party  or your honeymoon, then we have you covered! (Or, like, not covered at all you know what I mean.)
    Let's go! Here are 2022's top ten trendiest bathing suits!

    You know how deer get frozen in their tracks when they look into headlights? That's how I feel about this stunning floral bathing suit by Kenny Flowers. Not only is the silhouette classic, but it features the cutest thin little belt with the cutest shiny little gold hardware. I die. Seriously, this one is just everything. The only issue now is HOW TO KEEP IT WHITE WITH ALL OF THIS SELF TANNER I AM ABOUT TO LATHER ALL OVER MY BODY. Click here to access the listing on the Watercolors website. 
    3. The South Beach Suit By Asos - $40
    This little belted number would be perfect for you if you already own 30+ bathing suits and feel absolutely no need to spend over $40 on one single more. <insert seventeen laughing face emojis> No, but seriously-- sometimes we just want a simple, white bathing suit to wear to a super boozy, maybe-i-am-going-to-do-a-keg-stand-at-my-bachelorette-party sort of affair. And to that, I say, no judgement. Click here to access the South Beach Suit on the Asos website. 
    bridal bathing suit
    4. Milly White One Piece With Oversized Blue Bow from Tabacaru Swim - $285
    Calling all divas! This bathing suit is more of a work-of-art than something you are going to want to fill with sand and salt water...but honestly, if it's wow factor that you are going for (or if you just adore being different) then look no farther. This is your suit. Click here to see more photos of it on the Tabacaru Swim website. (It's only $285. Like, NBD. I don't necessarily need to eat.
    lulus one shoulder bikini
    5. Just Add Water One Shoulder One Piece by Haight - $139
    I am not going to lie- I don't LOVE cut outs on regular clothes like dresses and tops. Actually, I am lying. I kinda hate them....... BUT when it comes to bathing suits, they are HONESTLY SO APPROPRIATE and downright irresistible. If you are a person who feels the same, then check out this darling off-the-shoulder one piece with side cut outs! The best part? The price is super chill.

    10. Fruity Floral Bikini Top by Montce - $152

I mean honestly-- how could I leave this adorable, seventies-inspired bikini top out of this round up??? It screams Love Shack Fancy and would most likely work well as a darling catch-his-eyes pajama top too!! Interested to see more?

    By Sarah Dobson
    This past weekend, we were blessed to open our inbox to a few incredibly special messages from one of our past clients-- Emmy Johnson -- who said I Do last month in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

Her whole wedding has this adorable Little House On The Prairie vibe meets Love Shack Fancy. I can't even get over the amount of thought that went into planning this masterpiece of a wedding!

    7 Short Wedding Dresses That Will Blow Your Mind

    By Sarah Dobson
    As the days get longer, the dresses get shorter! This summer, couples are moving away from tradition to embrace styles that feel fun, free-spirited, and personalized — and short wedding dresses and tea length gowns are taking center stage.
    From Kourtney Kardashian’s sexy Dolce & Gabbana corset dress to Audrey Hepburn’s classic tea length gown, short wedding dresses have long been a favorite for It girls and unconventional brides alike.
    Plus, they’re a no-brainer for summer outdoor weddings, where layers of tulle and floor-skimming hemlines will only get in the way of your first steps into married life. 
    Whether you want to make an effortlessly cool statement, escape the summer heat, or rock a party-ready second look, then here are our top 7 FAVORITE short bridal dresses!
    short wedding dresses
    When it comes to 2022, there couldn't possibly be another mini wedding dress that is quite as recognizable as this darling tulle mini dress from Untamed Petals. With tiny pearls throughout, this super fun + flirty mini is the PERFECT bridal party dress! The best part? The peek-a-boo bodice shows through the boned bodice for an ultra sexy vibe. Interested to purchase it? Click here to be directed to the Arlington Pearl Mini listing on the Untamed Petals website! 
    mini wedding dress
    Ok, so we realize that the above dress doesn't really count as a "mini" bridal dress, but it does count as a tea-length dress, which is similar (but radically different.) Here is the thing though: this dress is so incredibly pretty that we couldn't help but include it in this round up! I mean-- JUST LOOK AT IT. When it comes to class and elegance, I'm not sure it gets better than this. Plus, the chances that that Meghan Markle would approve are off the charts. The best part? It is available right now via BHLDN, which (as you most likely know) is a major national brand, meaning that you can actually get your hands on it within a reasonable amount of time versus ordering a devastatingly beautiful dress from a website that may or may not be located in China. Interested to see more? Click here to be directed to the V Chapman Naomi Dress on the BHLDN website! 
    mini wedding dress
    When it comes to unexpected and modern, look no farther than this show-stopping, ultra millenial inspired mini dress from For Love and Lemons! Not only does it have those darling organza puff sleeves that are so IN right now, but it also has tiny ivory satin bridal button detailing along the cuffs AND two adorable bows at mid-sleeve! The only thing we ask is that you pair this dress with some super chunky, extremely MODERN statement jewelry that will make all of your grandmothers upset. Interested to see more? Click here to be directed to the Gabrielle Puff Sleeve Mini Dress listing on the For Love and Lemons website!
    For the bride who can't get enough of feathers, consider this eye-catching mini dress from BHLDN! In fact, BHLDN has an entire collection of bridal mini dresses (appropriately called The Little White Dress collection) that is  FULL of mini wedding dress options! This little feathered number stands to be one of our personal favorites though! Interested to see more? Click here to see more of the Sylvie Mini Dress by BHLDN! 
    bridal mini dress
    I don't know about you, but I am a huge fan of Love Shack Fancy!! <insert at least six heart-eye emojis here> Full confession: until I started doing research for the best bridal mini-dresses, I had NO IDEA that they even MADE wedding-appropriate dresses!!! Suffice to say, I am over-the-moon excited to show you this seventies-inspired, lace-laden mini dress from Love Shack Fancy! This retro white short wedding dress is the perfect look for your summer of love. With groovy floral lace and airy sleeves, it exudes peace, love, and flower power. Interested to make it yours? Click here to be directed to the Faye Mini Dress listing on the Love Shack Fancy website!
    mini bridal dresses
    I don't know if Boss Lady Bridal Chic has ever been a thing, but it is now. Sleek, modern, and semi-professional-looking, this brand new number from Katie May says 2022 without ever saying 2022. The only downside? It is so new that it isn't even available quite yet. That is to say, it is available for pre-order at the moment, which is still fantastic news if you ask me. Interested to learn more? Click here to be directed to the Florence dress listing on the Katie May website!
    mini dress bridal retrofete
    7. The Gabrielle Dress By Retrofete Available Via BHLDN
    Ok, so do you remember that Retrofete dress that Taylor Swift wore? With all of those gorgeous unicorn-like jewel-tones? Well, I guess Retrofete re-imagined that dress in ivory. Who knew. Not me. BUT I WAS PSYCHED TO SEE THIS ON THE BHLDN WEBSITE YESTERDAY!!! I mean-- are you kidding me? How chic is this sequined, belted dress??!! I actually used to own this dress in a different color, so I can tell you first-hand how gorgeous it truly is. The only downside is that this baby is heavy, so maybe ...just maybe...don't plan on wearing it for more than five hours. Just a thought. Click here to access the Gabrielle Dress listing on the BHLDN website and make this beauty yours like yesterday.

    Her Galia garter paired perfectly with her ivory pearl toss garter, making for some of the prettiest wedding details photos that we have seen in quite awhile!
    But wait-- did we mention that Devynn had one of our darling Happy Tears hankies too?!!! This vintage piece was embroidered in house in our Atlanta, Georgia studio and shipped all the way to Devynn's house shortly after she won our giveaway!
    But wait! We can't finish this post without showing you what Devynn's bouquet looked like! Isn't this floral combo just STUNNING?!!! Here, Devynn shines bright like a diamond on her wedding day and we couldn't be more proud to call her one of our clients!!
