Complete the fairytale with a romantic wedding dress
Every bride wants to
look and feel like a princess on their special day.
Recently
Anne Hathaway was lucky enough to have a bespoke wedding gown designed by
Valentino himself, and the Italian designer far exceeded our expectations by making a fairytale
swirling chiffon creation with hand-painted detail.
And
Holly Valance was another beautiful bride in a
bespoke cascading J'Aton dress, with an extravagant train that totalled a costly £35,000.
But if you are without a designer friend and huge budget, don't worry, you too can find your own, unique
wedding dress that will be suited to your taste and price range.
Think sweetheart necklines and delicately beaded veils, applique crystals and intricate embroidery. Here's a taste of the
most romantic dresses from this season.
