Plus size Bridal Gowns

The girls at Bombshell are always searching and read up on what's happening in the bridal world. It's something we all enjoy doing and it helps us make your "Bombshell Experience" everything it can be! 

Our consultant Kirah found an article on TheKnot's blog titled "Gorgeous Plus Size Wedding Gowns". 

While the dresses are pretty, it brings up the question, "Why do plus size brides have to wear plus size gowns?"  The dresses in the blog featured the typical "plus size look", a-line, flowy, tent-like coverings that are masked as wedding gowns. 

Something that we strive to do at Bombshell is to feature designer, custom, stunning gowns in our store. Instead of carrying plus size lines we carry designer lines in plus sizes. We figure, why cover your body with shape shaming material and hideously unshapely gowns? 

Your wedding gown should make you feel beautiful, look amazing, and most of all show off your gorgeous shape!

So all that being said, when you are shopping for your gown remember that you are not limited to plus size lines that market themselves strictly to plus size girls! Look beyond the plus size labes, why restrict yourself?

Instead, seek a dress that you love, not that you like. Your gown should make you feel beautiful, show off your shape and make you feel like a queen!

REAL TALK. How to be A Good Bridesmaid

We all know that being a bridesmaid is a blessing AND a curse. Buying a dress that 1. you don’t like and 2. UGH that price tag though! We all know that sometimes being asked to be in a wedding is extremely frustrating. However, when your best friend asks you to be in her wedding it’s hard to not feel honored! She loves you and wants you by her side for the most important day of her life. Please be seated class! Remember that she might be stressed out, and don’t take it personal. She may be stressed because everyone is in her ear telling her what she should do. Ask her if she needs help and most likely she will need it, but might not want to ask. You may not care about all the details, but she does! A good friend will shut up about her wanting paper flowers instead of real ones and help her make “said” paper flowers. She will change her mind at least a dozen times. I am SOOO guilty of this. In this day and age with pinterest, instagram, wedding blogs, and facebook i...
