Top Wedding Gowns for 2014

All kinds of everything....

The 2014 collection of wedding gowns brought a fresh crop of inspiration with loads of chic silhouettes, breathtaking fabrics and wonderful accessories.

There are just too many collections to highlight here but I have chosen a variety of dresses from vintage, the great Gatsby and some of the more classic collections.

One aspect that is not too often highlighted is choosing the right style of dress for your shape. I came across this useful article on Style Me Pretty that you may find helpful when choosing your wedding gown.

Autumn Weddings at Powerscourt Estate

Powerscourt House & Gardens

Wedding Venue
Don't hesitate to ask your preferred wedding venue to see pictures of the grounds in Autumn. Powerscourt House in Enniskerry is a stunning venue for an Autumn wedding. The beech trees along the avenue change to magnificent autumnal colours of fiery reds and oranges to bright vivid yellows.

Powerscourt Avenue

The Gardens at Powerscourt are truly a kaleidoscope of colour in the Autumn, in particular the Japanese Garden, which is ideal for wedding photography.

Japanese Garden at Powerscourt

The Autumn colour palette is filled with warm colours of orange, yellow, deep purples and vivid gold. With beautiful frost kissed mornings and the slow rising mists there couldn't be a more romantic time to get married at Powerscourt House.

I came across some wonderful ideas for Autumn weddings, too many actually, so I have shortlisted them to some of my favourites. I hope you like them!
