Wedding Belle: Enchanted and Exquisite

Bride: Grace Lee Wedding Date: July 18, 2009 Wedding Location: Richmond, British Columbia Wedding Style: Grace’s lavish wedding and style called for a day with three gorgeous gowns. She embraced her Asian culture with a bright red kimono-style dress before the wedding and stepped into a Cinderella gown for the nuptials. This gown’s delicate beading and embroidery subtly filled the entire dress. The cathedral train and sweetheart neckline complimented the princess style of her dress and ceremony. A birdcage was adorned on top of her loosely pulled back hair, which revealed her natural, fresh face. She held a bouquet of white calla lilies and wore a beaded necklace, all which added to the enchanting atmosphere of the ceremony. For the reception, Grace amazed everyone in a deep red drop-waist gown with pickups on the ball gown skirt that were decorated with gold embellishments. A red, feathery pin was tucked into her classic up-do. Definitely a wedding fit for Cinderella! The Look: Bridal gowns, Bello Wedding World (ebello.com) and Holt Renfrew (holtrenfrew.com).
