Remember back in April when we shared a little preview of all the Fall 2016 loveliness at David’s Bridal this year? After poring over all the new wedding gowns and bridal trends, it seemed only natural that we’d share a few of our faves in action, too. Plus, a chance to style bridal gowns and wedding details for Braedon Flynn to photograph? Wouldn’t miss it for the world!

You probably know that one of the major reasons brides choose David’s Bridal is how easy it is to get your hands on quality, affordable designs—they’ve got over 300 stores in the US, Canada, & Puerto Rico and a huge variety of styles and sizes. But all that only matters if you’re able to find *the* one—and we totally found it. Well, three…

This is a beaded stretch crepe dress by Galina Signature, the back of which you saw above. When we heard it was adorned with 8,600 pieces of beading along the neckline + illusion back, seeing it on was a must. This was designed for the bride that’s enamored with the delicate deco style—a graceful gown inspired by 1920s glamour.

Are you swooning over this braided updo by Fiore Beauty yet? Seriously magical.

We’ve mentioned Melissa Sweet before—she’s got some of the dreamiest gowns that are full of texture and romantic embellishments. You guys. This one. It’s sooo lovely up close. The skirt has this blush underlay, which looks incredible with the scalloped lace and applique bodice.

Trust us when we say the watercolor tint trend is a major winner for bridal gowns. Subtle washes of pinks, blues, and champagnes give dresses the slightest warm glow. Perfect if you’ve been considering a non-white gown—this is like hinting at it. Is it presumptuous to assume that this will be pinned to all the Pinterest boards?

And lastly, the Galina lace sleeve gown. With sheer paneling in the sleeves and neckline, this one is kinda the best of both worlds. You can have all the pretty lace details and buttons (see below!) while still having a low back and exposed arms, thanks to the ever amazing illusion style.
