Wedding expenses can add up and every penny saved helps; so here’s some good news for budget conscious brides looking to get a designer gown but at a fraction of the price. British bridal designer Jenny Packham is admired in the wedding world, well known for her whimsical gowns, often featuring intricate embroidery and eye-watering price tags.

Packham has dressed everyone from the Duchess of Cambridge to Angelina Jolie and now thanks to a collaboration with wedding retailer David’s Bridal, you’ll be able to get in on the action too.

Anyone who thinks the defining factor of a wedding dress means a white ball gown hasn’t followed Bridal Fashion Week. Blush Magazine was in NYC to catch all the latest trends for 2015 and we narrowed it down to these top 4 fashion statements; Crop Tops, High Slits, Sheer Lace, and Coloured Gowns.

My job is so much more than a three word title to me. It’s connecting with business owners and creative indviduals around the world and it becomes especially more exciting when you are dealing with local designers. When Truvelle, a Vancouver based design studio, contacted us to share that their gowns will be carried in Alberta I was overjoyed and instantly convinced myself that it’s worth a three hour drive to Calgary.

As I kept reading into their email they mentioned that Delica Bridal, an avid supporter of Blush and local bridal boutique in Edmonton, will be carrying the gowns. I skimmed through the images about a dozen of times and had thoughts of creative shoots and the type of bride that would wear a Truvelle gown.

So what type of bride would wear a Truvelle gown on her wedding day?

1) A proud Canadian, because Truvelle is a made-in-Canada brand.

2) A bride who wants a light, airy, and soft look.

3) A bride in search of unique fabrics and finishings.

To save you from my rambling, I’ve posted images of the latest collection, you can swiftly make your way to Delica Bridal today to try on these dreamy gowns.
