 This Spring Angela’s Bridal has so many fun, fashionable and exciting events for brides still in search of their dream dress!
Not only do we have all the latest and greatest gorgeous gowns from our designer’s Spring 2012 Collections, we are also hosting numerous Trunk Shows!
If you are not familiar with what a Trunk Show is. A trunk show is where a designer puts on an exclusive event in our store for a limited time, (usually over a weekend) and sends the latest, hottest gowns for our brides to try on.
Sometime this means we have the entire line in store, or the latest gowns fresh from the catwalk, or the best and most popular gowns from the line.

 The Angela’s Bridal Dress of the Week is an extremely unique and stunning Mikaella, style # 1660. This gown is made of Mikaella satin, which is a very light weight, natural and rich fabric.
The cap sleeves, which go slightly off the shoulder, are what make this gown stand out from all the rest, not only at Angela’s Bridal, but also throughout the wedding gown industry.
This is the perfect gown for a bride whom is in search of something different. Currently, many wedding dresses are strapless with a sweetheart neckline or scoop.
If a gown does feature cap sleeves, it is typically made of lace. Mikaella has created this beautiful satin dress, offering an alternative fabric to the brides whom wish to wear some sort of sleeve.
This season we have seen a prominent change in neckline styles, and designers have branched out creating different looks, and this gown is a perfect example. ...

T  he Angela’s Bridal Dress of the Week, Tara Keely #2203, is a fabulous gown with stunning accents unlike any other dress!
With a very simple shape, silhouette and style, this gown’s features give a couture bridal feel.
Tara Keely #2203 is a trumpet style gown, which is a very predominant shape throughout the 2012 Spring Tara Keely Collection, and also throughout the industry.
Lazaro Perez, creator and designer of Tara Keely, used the trumpet style, but added something different, organza ruffles cascading down the skirt and chapel train.
This accent portrays how heavily influenced this designer was by Spanish style throughout the process of creating this particular line.
Lazaro was the first to introduce the new material, Mikado, which is the latest craze throughout the wedding...

 Couples tying the knot are acutely aware that the costs for a wedding can quickly mount to biblical proportions. Most couples try to cut out excessive and cost wherever possible, usually this is a compromise between achieving the same look and feel without and the expense of going all out. Usually, the last thing to be cut is the cost of the dress. At Angela’s Bridal we would never want our brides to settle...
