Casual, Comfortable and Chic!

Who says you have to be uncomfortable on your special day, just to look fantabulous? All brides should be able to define what casual, comfortable and chic means to them. Learn how these LBEC Brides wore some nontraditional attire for their wedding day.

Take LBEC Bride Tiffany W. for example (pictured on the left) - she looks absolutely gorgeous but made no sacrifices when it came to being comfortable walking down (and standing at) the aisle. Instead of wearing expensive high heeled wedding shoes to match her dress (that people can't even see under the hem), our bride instead opted to wear some creative casual canvas shoes (say that 3 times fast) so she didn't have to think about pain as she was saying "I do" to the man of her dreams.

These shoes carried her through her touching ceremony, pictures with her new hubby/wedding party/family, the first dance, the money dance, the electric slide, the cupid shuffle AND the bouquet toss before she changed into and even more casual "after-party" outfit.

Another LBEC Bride Tonya S. and her hubby (pictured on the right) also opted for more casual wedding attire. Since she was having a very small and intimate wedding in Lake Tahoe, she wore white pants and a very feminine, ruffly, long sleeve blouse in lieu of a traditional wedding dress. Her husband opted for very stylish slacks and a short sleeve linen shirt.

This causal attire against the backdrop of water and snow was absolutely elegant and matched the couples personalities and style. For a pop of color they opted for a bouquet and boutonniere of all red roses.

Both brides looked absolutely stunning on their wedding day and didn't have to sacrifice an ounce of style to keep some elements of their day casual and comfortable.

These brides and other's like them are proof that today's modern bride is throwing caution to the wind, tradition out the door and making the day what it should be all about - them.

Happy Planning!
