Black and White Wedding Style

Still searching for your wedding theme? Consider the classic style of black and white. Black and white wedding themes have been in style since the early 1900's; this theme remains timeless and elegant. Black and white couture gowns vary greatly so don't be afraid to try on a few gowns in this style. You'll find hints of black added to retro, modern, and classic styles. The more exuberant personality should consider trying on gowns with a bit more black detail in the skirt and accessories. This Twin Cities bride chose accessories well. Her beauty exemplifies class with elegant long black gloves and a veil trimmed in black satin. Onyx stones set in crystal and silver finish the look. She chose a vibrant bouquet to compliment her look. Vera Wang's Fall 2010 Showcase features black and white designs inspired for you. Her styles can be found online. Also, Marshall Fields is an exclusive retailer for the Vera Wang bridal collection in the Twin Cities. For the budget conscious Kohl's carries a line of Vera Wang accessories that may complete the gown you choose.
