Good Morning! I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend. Photographer Shelly Kroeger recently teamed up with some amazing vendors to put together a gorgeous fashion story in New York City and I’m thrilled about the opportunity to share the results of their collaboration with you on Once Wed. I don’t know about you, but I’m especially loving the ruffle wedding dress below…

I just bought my veil from Gabriella’s! If I hadn’t already bought my dress months ago, I would have been in so much danger of buying one of those too! This salon was incredible, and the staff was so wonderful, I can’t say enough great things!

Since I bought my wedding dress in early February, I haven’t had ANY dress envy. After reading this post, I have experienced it no less than 3 times.

does anyone know the designers of the dresses? I went to the bridal salon website, but it could be quite the hunt to find the designers…
