Since its wedding season, I find no better time to showcase one of my favorite wedding shops, BHLDN. This Anthropologie shop has truly become a staple in event clothing and decor. From bridal gowns and bridesmaid dresses to accessories and wedding decor, it definitely is a one stop shop for sure.

They carry unique items that all have a bit of a vintage flair and whimsy feel. I highly recommend every bride visit their website and take a look around. If anything, for inspiration. If you’re lucky enough to live by one of their shops, stop in and say hello. I can promise you will leave with a smile.

There is so much BHLDN offers it would probably take a few posts to list all of my favorite things so I decided to list a few items I love that you can find in each category. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much I do.

Ruche is Bridal Beautiful

I love shops that carry vintage inspired items and clothing. One of my favorites just came out with a new bridal collection I had to share. I came across Ruche about a year ago and was very happy with their selection. I mostly like their dresses but the shoes and accessories they sell are really awesome too. Not to mention, their vintage inspired jewelry.

Ruche is Bridal Beautiful

The shop’s new bridal collection, To Have to Hold, has an array of antique style dresses for the bride and bridesmaids as well as accessories. The selection may not be huge right now but there are some nice choices if this is the style you are going for. I am sure they will have more as time passes but it’s certainly a good start.

Here are some of my favorites. You can view their lookbook for more inspiration.
