If you’re as addicted to Anthropologie’s gorgeous clothes and accessories as I am, brace yourselves for the gossip I’m about to spill to you. The ever feminine, chic and fashion-forward store is apparently launching a bridal line that will knock our spring socks off! Yes, that’s right, a line full of heirloom wedding gowns, bridesmaid dresses, bridal accessories and gifts!

The unnamed bridal concept will launch as a Web site later this spring. Brides-to-be can make appointments at their local Anthropologie stores for fittings before the line makes an appearance in stores. Wedding gowns will allegedly retail for $750 to $5,000 and bridesmaid dresses will start at $200.  Ah, love.

The Limited, known for its budget-friendly and classic clothing, has also recently announced its bridal line, which will launch on the third of June. FYI, the dresses are not only ridiculously affordable, but elegant as well.

The line is small with only two gowns and two bridesmaid dresses, but take a peek at this beauty. Besides its gorgeous tiers, the best part is that it’s under $300! Stunning and cost-friendly? Yes please!

Along with groom attire comes the accessories worn by him and his groomsmen. I’m a sucker for small details and of course think little bonuses like these add style to any event.

A groom’s accessories can be as eccentric as Star Wars cufflinks or as traditional as his grandfather’s handkerchief. And although some may argue Star Wars cufflinks are the opposite of stylish, a groom’s accessories are about him and his personality, not about what’s “in” right now.

Take a look at how these grooms accessorized themselves.

Just as brides are choosing to go untraditional in their wedding day attire, grooms are rethinking the black tux. Striped ties, navy blue sport coats and green Converses are taking the place of the often stiff and formal clothing worn by husbands to-be.

The mixing of patterns and colors worn by the groom and his groomsmen brings an added sense of style to the big day. Allowing him the opportunity to show his personal style, whether it’s through striped orange ties or checkered Vans, ensures his own comfort at the event. An added bonus: the pictures are to die for!

Check out what these guys put together!

Wedding style goes beyond the wardrobe and accessories, ladies. Style can also be applied to a wedding’s overall “theme” – and when I say “theme” please don’t think luau.

The one that’s been catching my eye lately (along with brides around the country) is the vintage-inspired wedding. Think 20s glamour complete with lace, beads, feathers and mason jars to hold the flowers! More than wonderful, if you ask me.

Besides being absolutely gorgeous, the nice thing about going vintage is that it’s completely weather-proof. It’s just as fabulous for an indoor October affair as it is an outdoor summer event.

One glimpse at these photos will make you squirm with excitement… even if you’re like me and aren’t the one getting married!
