Something else that caught my attention was the designer Chelsea chose to design her dress for her. I have previously written about Vera Wang, who is the in designer for wedding dresses, and who left me unimpressed. Here is a blog on her (in two parts) which I titled "Vera Wang's Mounds of Chiffon."
Here is a previous post I did on Vera Wang's wedding dresses. And here are more posts on wedding dresses, where I bemoan the lack of formality, maturity, and even beauty in our current wedding dress designs.
Surprisingly, there is one designer I couldn't fault. It is Amsale, who's designs also go by her first name. Here is post I did on her, her style, and a few of her wedding dresses. And some of the reasons why I think she got her dresses right.
