After you've chosen your own fabulous wedding dress, it's time to start thinking about what your bridal party will wear. We carry the most beautiful bridesmaid dress in Miami in a rainbow of colors. Lately, here at Brides of America, we've noticed a lot of women falling in love with our charcoal grey gowns for their bridesmaids.
"Charcoal grey is the new black for bridesmaid dresses this coming wedding season!" said Brides of America owner, David Abadi. "It looks amazing on all skin tones, and it blends in wonderfully with every possible wedding color."
This dress shade is a bit softer than classic black, and works especially well for spring and summer weddings. It has a similar slimming effect, which every woman loves. Charcoal grey is also a wonderful color to set bridesmaids apart and really make the brides white (or ivory, or champagne...) gown stand out.
Shopping for bridesmaid dresses in South Florida can be a fun and memorable time for you and your girls. There are a few things that you may want to keep in mind during your shopping appointment to make the entire process go smoothly and keep everyone involved happy.
- Do a little research.
Start the bridesmaid dress shopping fun early by getting together for a day of flipping through magazines and searching the newest styles online. This will give you a good idea of the types of dresses your bridesmaids are most interested in wearing.
- Keep budgets in mind.
While you may not be worried about spending money on the perfect wedding dress, your bridesmaids may be a little more frugal. You don't want anyone to have to say no to being a bridesmaid because they can't afford the gown. Unless you are picking up the tab for your girls, be aware of the price points of the dresses you are looking at. Brides of America has large variety of exquisite and affordable gowns available to choose from.
- Start early.
Once you find the perfect dress (or dresses, if each bridesmaid will be wearing a different style,) it will need to be ordered. Shop early enough that there is plenty of time for the gowns to arrive and any necessary alterations can be done without rushing before the wedding day. You should place your order no later than 6 months before the wedding.
- Listen to the bridesmaids opinions.
It's your wedding, so you get final say on what everyone wears, but keep in mind, they have to wear those gowns, you don't. Listen to their opinions so that they end up wearing something they are comfortable in. You want your friends to feel good about the way they look. A great question to ask yourself is "Would you wear that dress?"
If you love the charcoal grey bridesmaid dresses in today's blog as much as we do, you can come in and try them on in our Miami bridal boutique. On the other hand, if you have a different color scheme in mind for your bridal party, Brides of America has lots of colors and a variety of different styles for you to choose from. Make an appointment to bring all of your girls in to try a few on. We can't wait to help you find something that everyone loves!
The holidays are coming, and so is engagement season! Well, technically, it officially begins with Thanksgiving and ends around Valentine's Day, so it's happening right now! Many couples spend about a year wedding planning, which means that many newly engaged couples may be planning to get married during the holidays next year. Brides of America has some helpful advice for these brides & grooms.
Embrace the Season
You can pull a lot of inspiration from the wonderful celebrations that happen in the month of December. The colors, flavors, and natural decor of the season offer a lot of ideas to borrow from. While you want your guests to feel like they are at a wedding rather than a regular holiday party, it's okay to add in a few traditions here and there.
Favors can be wrapped like presents with pretty papers and fancy bows. You signature drinks can incorporate cranberry, apple cider, or even hot chocolate. Lots and lots of greenery will save you money on florals and fit right in with the look and feel of the season.
Holiday Color Inspiration
Red is a very popular color to use during the month of December, and it can be paired beautifully with white or green. A cooler blue and shiny silver is also gorgeous, very reminiscent of a winter wonderland.
This year, Brides of America is noticing a lot less red and green and a lot more blush and eggplant. It is a very sophisticated, earthly color palette, reminding us of classic holidays of the past. Our personal experience with this trend comes from the many beautiful bridesmaid dresses that are being chosen by bridal parties at our Miami bridal boutique.
Save-The-Dates Are A Must
One very important thing that you must do when planning a holiday wedding is to let your guests know about it early. The more notice that they have, the more likely they will be able to work your wedding into their busy holiday schedule. If they will be visiting from out of town, booking travel arrangements early might help them to save a little on those holiday travel price increases.
Realize That Holidays Are Busy
Even with plenty of advance notice, realize going into your planning that some of your guests may already have too many family activities and annual holiday events to attend. This means that your guest count may be lower than it would be at another time of the year.
Not only may your guests be busier than usual, but so will your wedding vendors. Venues tend to book up quickly because of the increased amount of parties being thrown this time of year. Many of those celebrations use the same vendors that you will hire for your wedding, and the high demand often means that those vendors' prices go up.
Beauty For The Holidays
Even if a holiday wedding is not in your near future, our gorgeous bridesmaid gowns make excellent party dresses. Our store is filled with the very best special occasion dresses in South Florida. We would love to help you find the perfect one to make you the Belle of any Ball this season!
If you happen to be one of the lucky ladies to become engaged this year, Brides of America is ready to book your shopping appointment so that you can find your dream wedding dress. Our Morilee Bridal Fall Trunk Show is in its final days, ending on Monday, December 5, 2016. We do have a few appointments still available, and if you are in need of a bridal gown, this is an excellent time to find one!
Brides of America exclusively sells all of the Morilee dress collections in our store, which means we have the most beautiful mother of the bride dresses in South Florida. Morilee designs the most magnificent gowns for special occasions, and the wedding of your child is most definitely one of those.
The talented Madeline Gardner provides Morilee with designs that are everything you could possibly wish for in a dress; sophistication, beauty, elegance, and style are just the beginning of the words that describe these amazing gowns.
Brides of America has recently received some brand new styles of mother of the bride dresses in our Miami wedding dress store, some of which are featured in this blog. Even after all these years of carrying these exquisite collections, we are still amazed every season at the sheer beauty they exude.
Shopping Tips
This is not the type of dress that you "run out and buy" at the last minute. With an occasion this special, there are a few shopping tips that you will want to keep in mind.
- Shop no later than 5 months before the wedding. That should allow plenty of time for any necessary alterations.
- Make an appointment so that you get the attention and time needed to find exactly what you want.
- Take cues from the bride's wedding vision for the formality of your gown.
- The dress does not need to match the wedding party, but it is nice to find a color that complements it.
- Stay in touch with the other mother at the wedding to avoid buying dresses that are too similar.

Brides of America loves being able to help women look and feel beautiful on the special days in their lives. This is not limited to the wedding day. In addition to the many exquisite special occasion gowns that we carry, we also offer offer the most gorgeous quinceanera dresses in Miami.
On a young lady's 15th birthday, Quinceanera symbolizes that girl's journey into womanhood. A wonderful moment like that deserves a very special gown. Brides of America is proud to be able to offer the Vizcaya quinceanera dress collection from the brilliant Madeline Gardner and Morilee. The attention to detail, expert craftsmanship, quality materials, and fabulous designs of Morilee are all reasons why we only carry their brand. Only the very best for our customers!
The new fall collection from Vizcaya is different from the designs that we have seen in the past. This year we are noticing a lot more bling, yet the styles are even more sophisticated than before. A wonderful detail about these gowns is that the crinoline is already built into the dress, so there is no need for an extra piece underneath to give it that gorgeous fullness.
At the same time, these quinceanera gowns still stay true to tradition. The skirts are long, full, and flowing, exuding the perfect balance between sweet, young innocence and tasteful womanly fashion.
While these gowns are designed with quinceanera in mind, they are just as perfect for a young woman's sweet 16 party or other important evening, such as prom. Anyone that wants to look and feel like a princes for a day will love these stunning dresses.
No matter what the occasion, from quinceanera to weddings, each and every customer that comes in for a shopping appointment in our Miami special occasion dress store is given our undivided attention while she is here. "We love to spoil our young ladies when they are searching for the perfect party dress, just like we spoil all of our brides." says owner David Abadi, "During her appointment, all of our attention will be on her - what she likes, how it fits, how she feels in the dress - and we will do everything that we can to make sure that she is perfectly happy while she is here!"
Most of our quinceanera dresses have a matching stole or bolero that may be worn for a bit of added modesty and style. Each gown is available in different color choices too. No matter what your daughter's personal style, you will be able to find something perfect that will make you both equally happy.
If you know a young lady that will soon be celebrating her own special day and is looking for the best quinceanera dress in Miami, send her our way. Not only will she find quality, variety, and style at Brides of America, but also the friendliest and most knowledgeable customer service to go along with it. We cannot wait to enhance your young lady's inner beauty with a fabulous gown to match it.
Everyone in the wedding party has their wedding fashions picked out for them, so there is never any question as to what they should wear. Wedding guests, on the other hand, aren't always given a lot of guidance in this area.
There are common wedding phrases that can be included on the invitation to let guests know what type of clothing is expected at the ceremony and reception. Unfortunately, many people do not know exactly what is considered "Beach Formal" or "Black Tie Optional."
Never fear. Brides of America has put together a quick summary of what each of the most popular wedding looks entails. Feel free to share this blog with your wedding guests to help them easily pick out their outfits for your special day.
Casual
Guests are still expected to look their best, but in a more relaxed way. A casual ceremony usually takes place during the day. Gentlemen can wear a nice pair of dress pants and a dress shirt, but they can probably skip the tie. The ladies should wear a pretty skirt or pants with a nice top, or a sweet sundress is also welcome. If the ceremony will be an evening affair, upgrade your wardrobe to a more business-casual type of look.
Semi-formal
This style is also often referred to as "Dressy Casual." Still relaxed, but a little bit fancier. A dressy skirt and top or a cocktail dress is perfect for women to wear. The men should don a suit and tie in this case. Treat it like a very special evening out with a special date.
Beach Formal
A ceremony in the sand calls for special clothing. You will want to wear something that is sensible in the current weather situation, plus shoes that are easy to walk a beach in. In other words, something comfortable, but dressier than a regular day at the beach. A formal summer sundress and some sandals will work for the ladies. Men should look for a lightweight suit, like linen, or khakis and a linen shirt.
Black Tie Optional
Some couples may simply call this "Formal" also. Refined fashions in darker shades are generally expected. The gentlemen are welcome to dress in a tuxedo if they wish, but a dark suit and tie will work just fine. Women may wear a formal cocktail-length gown, long dress, or even a dressy suit.
Black Tie
This type of wedding almost always takes place in the evening. Imagine you will be attending a formal gala or walking the red carpet. Men are expected to dress in a tuxedo with, as stated in the title, a black bow tie, plus a cummerbund. The ladies should put on a stunning cocktail dress or a beautiful full-length evening gown.
White Tie
This is as formal as any wedding can get. A long, formal ball gown in a dark, neutral shade is perfect for the female guests. Fabulous hairstyles, dramatic makeup, and magnificent jewelry complete the look. The men should wear a long black tuxedo with tails, plus a white vest and bow tie. White gloves for dancing are even acceptable.
As a wedding guest, if you are not sure what type of clothing you should wear, it never hurts to simply ask. The bride will be happy that you cared to find out instead of showing up in the wrong thing.
If you will be needing an evening gown for a wedding, our special occasion dresses in Miami will outfit you perfectly. Brides of America will make sure that you are dressed correctly and look amazing at any wedding or other special event that you will be attending.
A young lady's journey into adulthood is a momentous occasion deserving of a very special dress. Brides of America is thrilled to be able to provide the most stunning Quinceanera dresses in Miami to the wonderful young women that are hosting a Quinceanera or Sweet 16 party.
Just like with our beautiful bridal gowns, we require an appointment to try on these gorgeous dresses at Brides of America. This allows you to receive our undivided attention while shopping, and we get to treat you like a princess, exactly the way you deserve on this significant occasion.
Our owner, David Abadi, loves providing Quinceanera gowns to the young ladies in and near Miami. "We love to spoil our young ladies when they are searching for the perfect party dress, just like we spoil all of our brides. During her appointment, all of our attention will be on her - what she likes, how it fits, how she feels in the dress - and we will do everything that we can to make sure that she is perfectly happy while she is here!"
We adore the Vizcaya collection from Mori Lee because it stays true to the traditions of Quinceanera dresses. The skirts are long, full, and flowing, exuding the perfect balance between sweet, young innocence and tasteful womanly fashion. A Quinceanera is a well-established tradition of faith, independence, and grace. We feel this should be reflected in the way you look on this special day.
The Vizcaya collection is beautifully detailed and available in a wide range of styles and rainbow of colors. Brides of America also carries a spectacular line of tiaras and special occasion jewelry that pair exquisitely with these fabulous dresses.
When you are shopping for your own Quinceanera dress, keep these tips in mind.
Try on many different styles.
You don't really know how a dress is going to appear until you put it on. It is not uncommon to love a dress on the hanger, yet hate the way it looks on. The opposite is also true. Occasionally, something that did not catch your eye right away may take your breath away when you wear it.
Understand your own body type.
Quinceanera dresses come in many styles because not every body type looks good in the same shape. Don't worry about one dress not turning out the way you expected. That perfect gown is just around the corner.
Remember comfort.
Looking gorgeous at your party is important, but so is your comfort. This will most likely be a very long day and/or evening, so choose a dress that you are comfortable moving around in and wearing for a long time.
Ask lots of questions.
Our trained consultants are at your disposal. Use their vast fashion knowledge to help determine which dresses will look the very best on you. This tip could save you a lot of time. Tell us your likes, dislikes, and expectations, and we will help you zero in on exactly what you are looking for.
