however, it seems as though for some, the traditional "covering the shoulders" type of gown is still important. this might be due to a parent who insists on it, a church which requires it, or just personal preferences. i've started searching some websites to see what i can find in terms of traditionally-acceptable dresses and this is what i have found. please comment if you know any other places where our readers can find these sought-after dresses. i'm sure there are many who would appreciate guidance in this department.
as i was searching for wedding gowns for this blog, i was surprised to find that some "mainstream" stores carried special wedding gowns (bride & bridesmaid dresses). here are my findings: Ann Taylor, JCrew, BHLDN (the Anthropologie wedding site), Costco (i know, surprising, right?), Nordstrom, and White House Black Market. please let us know if you know of any more random/surprising/unexpected carriers of wedding attire.

...another option that many brides choose is to wear a cover-up of some sort for the ceremony and possibly go strapless or with small straps for the ceremony. i have found some beautiful cover-ups to share with you all...
BHLDN - i want to buy this for myself to wear with everything from jeans and white tank top to a plain dress for some visual interest
White House Black Market
BHLDN
This cape from BHLDN is so beautiful...seems a little vintage-inspired and it's another one of those pieces that can actually be re-worn after the "i do's" have been said. it would even be great for the honeymoon to throw over a Little Black Dress!
