Happy Fri-Yay!!! And today is a big yay indeed. This morning, Disney Fairy Tale Weddings had their annual Bridal Collection Fashion Show and it was live-streamed on YouTube. I wasn't able to watch the live earlier, but I have watched the video and the collection is stunning. As a Disney Bride who wore a licensed Disney wedding gown, seeing all of the new princess gown designs are always a highlight for me!
Today, Disney Fairy Tale Weddings and Allure Bridals debuted 21 new wedding gowns inspired by Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, Tiana and Rapunzel. (I think that's also the order they had the girls walk down the runway if you want to skip ahead to see a particular princess.)
The backdrop of the fashion show was the iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle at the Disneyland Resort. She looked extra spectacular as the castle is currently decorated for the Disney100 celebration. The lights and florals at the end of the runway also made the show magical and added an elegant touch.
I was excited to see a few familiar faces. I've followed Courtney Quinn on Instagram for a while now. She was also accompanied by fellow content creators Karlie Place, Toni Bravo, Allison Bickerstaff and Janette Ok to host and model some of the gowns.
And for the first time ever, they debuted a bridesmaid collection! At the end of the show, four girls came out in the new Aurora inspired gowns in pink and blue. We only saw these, but they will be making bridesmaid gowns for all nine fo the princesses.
My favorite part of the fashion show was that they showcased girls of all sizes, shapes and colors. I've always thought that inclusion matters. For me, it was nice to see some girls with more curves in the show. I was never very hung up with my weight or appearance when I tried on wedding gowns, but I've heard horror stories from some brides about trying to fit into the few gown sizes bridal boutiques have. It's good to know that they thought of women of all sizes when they designed this collection!
I love all of the new gowns and I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite. My gown didn't have lace details, but I'm totally loving those. (The Snow White and Cinderella gowns stick out in my mind.) I'm still a big fan of the poofy princess-y skirts too. I don't need another wedding gown anytime soon. But Eliot and I have talked about having a vow renewal someday... I'll definitely be keeping these gorgeous gowns in mind! °o°
