Avery

A stunning high-low hemline for the fashion forward bride ready to transition from ceremony to celebration. The strapless wedding dress features a sweetheart neckline, ruched bodice, and romantic pick-up skirt. Well, this kind of looks like the dress I wore on my wedding day.

Juliette
This wedding dress has a modern ball gown look, with folds of organza artfully draped. It also has a detachable ribbon belt, sweetheart neckline and corset closure.

Samantha
I must say this is my favorite among this collection! It features an A-line skirt with a high slit that falls dreamily from a long fitted bodice with illusion sweetheart neckline. I also love the grosgrain ribbon belt featuring a Swarovski crystal brooch.

Sonora
Quite the sexiest of them all, this dress boasts dazzling crystals traverse an illusion back in this eye catching gown of Paris Chiffon. I love the sweetheart neckline too!

Toni
This sheath wedding dress features Swarovski crystals and sexy plunging V-neckline. The train is so dainty and light too--which may make this perfect for a beach wedding.

Totally a fan of soft, lacy and flowy fabric, this is something I would wear if I get married again--to the same man, of course!

Shenae Grimes Wears A Black Wedding Dress

The 90210 star tied the knot and wore a pretty black gown with gray details. To top the nontraditional dress, the bride and groom Josh Beech wed with house music in the background! The wedding dress was from Vera Wang. I admire her for her braveness to wear something that is different from what is expected. I sort of wanted to wear a purple dress for my wedding back when I was a bit younger, but when later on I realized that won't make the oldies very happy. Anyway, check Shenae's dress:

They got married May 10 in Ashford, Kent. The ceremony was held at the Boys Hall.
