Hi lovelies,

Summer is fast approaching, with temperatures slowly climbing their way up. With sunny skies and warmer weather looming in the horizon, many lovebirds are busy planning for their summer nuptials. June is traditionally the most popular month to get married. This month is named after the Goddess Juno, who is seen as the protector of women, marriage, and pregnancy. As a result, even in the past, June is considered the most auspicious time to tie the knot and that still holds true to this day.

Whether you’re a bride to be who is thinking of saying your “I Dos” very soon or you simply just love staring at dreamy wedding dresses to cater to the romantic in you, then you have come to the right place. The fresh, modern, and trendy wedding dresses of Summer 2019 have been highlighted hereunder.

Keeping abreast of the trends ensures you can glide down the aisles without having to worry about being a fashion “I Don’t”. . 

Mini Dress
The mini dress is back in full force, which is ready to showcase your gorgeous long legs.

Whatever your reason, going above the knee merely means you can proudly show off your cute wedding shows that you splurged on. These mini dresses are certainly party ready because they come with all sorts of embellishments and luscious details. You can also settle for a traditional, simple white shift dress. The silk white Gucci sleeveless dress with its clean, classic lines available on The RealReal site would certainly fit the simple, yet stunning wedding mini dress bill. There are also perfect Gucci stilettos to match on there. With The RealReal, luxury fashion doesn’t have to break the bank. 

Glittery Sparkles
Sparkly stunners are a trend this season where shining, shimmering splendid garments serve to highlight the stunning bride. Every bride already has an internal glow, but metallic embellishments, sequins, and other glittering appliqués are seen on many bridal dresses. Choosing this style means all eyes will certainly be on her with these eye catching details…as it should be. The bride is the focal point of any wedding. Head-to-toe glittery and sparkly looks can be seen in these designers such as Inbal Dror, Berta, or Theia. Even for shoes, these sparkly golden leather Louis Vuitton caged wedges with woven straps, stacked heels, and zip closures follow the trend Available at The RealReal, these Louis Vuitton kicks would make Cinderella proud and would serve to match any glittering dress you choose.

Bridal Cape
Say what? A cape like the cape crusaders! This bridal trend screams modern and classic all at the same time. Bridal capes were a thing in the Victorian period, adorning the shoulders of the royalty and nobility, and now, they are making a modern come back. These bridal capes look better than ever and would look elegant on any bride. The cape can act as an extension of the veil, sheer, opaque, and super flowing, cascading like a waterfall as the bride walks down the aisle. Now that is making a grand entrance. Check out this trend with high fashion designers like Vera Wang and Carolina Herrera.

Say it with Flowers
Flowers take over the runway, with their pretty and enchanting presence screaming femininity and romance. These pretty little things are used to embellish wedding gowns. Some are embroidered directly on the gowns. Other styles are appliqués that adorn the wedding gowns. And some, they choose a large signature piece to highlight one part of the body. Even some veils were highlighted with this lovely wedding trend. Check out brands like Mira Zwillinger or Lela Rose to see more of this flower power.

Simplicity is KeyLast but not the least, the simple vibe conquers the trends. The super simple boat-neck gown of her royal highness Meghan Markle sparked this simple and minimalist wedding style. Similarly, her high-neck halter style dress at the reception exuded the same vibe. This season, there are many simple yet sleek wedding dress options to choose from. A radiant bride’s best asset is her glowing face and this will certainly stand out more in your chosen minimalist gown. Check out clean chic lines with designer like Monique Lluhillier
