You would think that after seeing every style of wedding dress over the course of a decade, that I would be a bit numbed to this epic gown.
On the contrary, folks! I'm cliché AF when it comes to wedding dresses: giddy, wiggly and sending so many follow up questions when a bride shares that oh-so special sneak peek pic.
Wedding dresses always surprise their owners. It's rare that a bride knows exactly what she's shopping for. These shopping journeys and surprise stories always make me smile.
I saw two outfit changes in 2021, lots of incredible floral embroidery and statement veils. I'm always one for drama when it comes to bridal style, that's for sure. Here are the Rosewood Wedding dresses of 2021 that I had the privilege of seeing up close and personal:
