A Modern Take on Lace Wedding Dresses

This season, lace has seen a modern update; it is no longer the conservative fabric reserved for your grandmother's closet. Today's lace is mixed with tulle and net for a softer, more ethereal feel. This style is perfect for the bohemian, romantic bride, and it pairs well with a loose braid, natural makeup, and stained cheeks or lips. We love the idea of this style dress at a vineyard or a woodsy natural wedding. Here are a few of my favorite "ethereal lace" gowns by Claire Pettibone, Marchesa, and Reem Acra.lace wedding dresses
