Wedding Season and Wedding Inspiration Wednesday

If you follow my Facebook page (and you should!), you would know that every week on Wednesdays, I post some fun and glamorous inspirations for wedding attire. Well, now that it's officially wedding season, and I've received requests to help people who are desperately seeking stylish and modest gown inspirations for weddings of relatives and friends, I decided to dedicate an entire post to wedding fashion. Here I have included gowns, hair accessories and even some dresses for girls! We've got your wedding fashion covered!

But first, on a side note (and speaking of Facebook), although I had this feeling for quite some time, today I officially discovered that Facebook only shows some of my statuses from my Fashion-isha page to only about 11 to 20 percent of my Facebook fans. And not only that, as of today, Facebook actually asked me to PAY to get my statuses shown to a larger percentage of my own fans. Well if you are a blogger or business owner who has worked hard to get your following, you'll understand how frustrated and upset this made me feel. Yes I understand that it may be impossible to show every status to every fan just because of the sheer volume of statuses being posted; but to take advantage of us who work hard to earn our following and try to charge us money to show our statuses to our very own followers, well it's a little disconcerting. If you're a blogger or business owner and you're not happy about this, please comment here if you have any ideas of how we can contact Facebook and let them know that we are not happy about this. Meanwhile, why not go over to twitter and follow me there ;)

OK now back to glorious WEDDING fashion!

Simple sheath + feather shawl = Dramatic glamour!

 Can't find a gown that you love? Try a fabulous skirt with a coordinating top for a unique and fabulous look.

 This Net-A-Porter ad portrays Mother and Daughter models in two very distinct and beautiful wedding looks.

 The Cannes Film Festival was home to some of the most beautiful gowns for wedding inspiration!

 Do you like your fashion a bit edgy? Here's something different:

 Here's proof (again!) that you CAN wear a shell under a strapless gown!

 Duchess Catherine is a prime example of 'divine and refined' (follow my facebook page for DAILY D&R looks). When wearing all white, silver is the perfect accent color.

 Are you a classicist? Here's a look you will love!

 White is obviously THE color of the season. If you like a little excitement with your white try a mega statement necklace and/or a gorgeous head piece. 

 As in the previous photo, a jacket over your gown is a fresh way to update your look and bring the formal factor down a notch.

 The sheath dress is the silhouette of the season and using fabulous textures and fabrics is what makes each style so different and exciting.

  Origami in fashion is not dead...as a matter of fact it can be so chic!

 This is one of my favorites, the subtle color, pattern and texture is simply fabulous.

Sheer, ethereal lace in angelic white or pastel is spot on for the wedding trend du jour...I would prefer these gowns with a bit more lining though...

 Here are three classic style than can copied with sleeves. I personally would even wear these with a fitted shell underneath (as seen above, it's perfectly OK to do so).  The one on the left is by far my favorite! Which style do you like the best?

For those of you who simply want to wear something simpler and shorter, here are three unique dresses that portray several of this season's trends: floral, modern and graphic.

Whether you prefer simple or over-the-top, do create something amazing with your hair!
