TWD Celebrates our Anniversary & Plus Size Brides this December.

December Celebrations! TWD’s Anniversary & Stella York Plus-Size Trunk Show!

All month long we’ll be celebrating the 13th anniversary of The White Dress! AND we’re throwing a Stella York Plus-Size Trunk Show on Dec 6th & 7th.

The holiday season is here! December celebrations abound as we wrap up this year and anticipate the new year ahead. Here at The White Dress, we are excited to join in the holiday celebrations with YOU, our fabulous brides. And we have two wonderful ways to join in the holiday cheer this year.

First of all, this December is our lucky 13th anniversary! The White Dress bridal boutique opened our doors in December 2011 and now we’re a plucky teenage small business. TWD and our TWD-ettes have had the pleasure of serving thousands of brides in our beautiful space, and we are looking forward to serving thousands more in the years to come. We want to share the celebration with you, so we’re hosting an anniversary sale all month long! Brides who shop with us this December will have access to our anniversary sale offers:

  • Every bride that orders her wedding dress is entered into a drawing to win $500 off their wedding dress!
  • The sample sale will be an EXTRA 13% off
  • All brides who say yes to their dress this month will get a FREE pair of Bride earrings!

Our next celebration is coming up soon! We are hosting a trunk show for our magnificent Plus Size brides this December 6th and 7th with Stella York. For two days we will have brand-new dresses from the designer in sizes 20-34 to complement our extensive plus size collection. Our TWD-ettes love styling our Plus Size Brides and we can’t wait to celebrate YOU with 10% off trunk show dresses!

Trunk Shows for our Fantastic Plus Size Brides

Trunk shows are special events that showcase new dresses from designers. Our trunk show article answers a lot of questions about how these fun events work. If you are dreaming of a specific aesthetic, or are specifically interested in one of the designers we stock at the boutique, a trunk show is a perfect time to visit.

We believe that every bride should have a wonderful bridal experience. We stock many size inclusive and plus size wedding dresses at The White Dress and we want you to enjoy trying on dresses and have fun with your entourage at your dress appointment. If you’d like to know what to expect at The White Dress when you visit us for your bridal session or our Trunk Show, check out our Tips for Plus Size Brides article on the blog. We hope you’ll join us!

We’re excited to give you a sneak peek at some of the dresses that we don’t have at TWD every day! Book your visit so you can see the stunning Trunk Show featuring Stella York Plus Size dresses for yourself.

Sparkling Diva: Multi-layered beaded gown that glimmers and glows

Sparkling Diva wedding dress, multi-layered beaded gown that glimmers and glows

Glittering and gorgeous, this dress is fashion forward, flirty, and fun. The sheer bodice is covered in shimmering sheet lace and beading. The deep v neck and side v detail create a mesmerizing interplay with the layered French tulle. But the glamor doesn’t stop there, trails of tiny sparkling beads adorn the A-line skirt from the waist twinkling all the way to the train. This transforms the gown from fairy lights to fireworks, a triumph for the fashionista bride.

We can picture a diva bride holding the spotlight in this beautiful ensemble as she walks down the aisle in a Theatre venue. We can also picture her sweeping the dancefloor as the happy couple perform a choreographed ‘dancing-with-the-stars’ inspired first dance!

Lavish Bombshell: Richly detailed gown with old Hollywood elegance

Lavish Bombshell wedding dress: Richly detailed gown with old Hollywood elegance

You simply cannot go wrong with this alluring gown. Lace studded tulle is on-trend and the cut of the dress plays up the lustrous 3D floral lace with intricate beading for a contemporary yet iconic style. The fit-and-flare silhouette is ideal for curves, the structured bodice and deep sweetheart neckline are sophisticated and sensual. Beads, lace and tulle cascade into a sweeping mermaid style train, highlighting the silhouette of the dress. This gown has all kinds of old-Hollywood opulence packed into a shimmering luxe dress that can make any bride embrace her bombshell status.

We imagine this bride and her special someone posing for Red Carpet style pictures under the lights of a lavish movie palace, like Detroit’s FOX Theatre.

Goddess of Glamor: Classical and sleek, this chiffon gown rejoices over curves

Goddess of Glamor wedding dress: Classical and sleek, this chiffon gown rejoices over curves

Idol status is within reach for the bride in this opulent chiffon gown. The rich fabric feels extravagant and the drape is 100% luxurious. The scoop neck with a boned bodice gives this flowing dress a little bit of structure that holds the graceful skirt and echoing long sleeves in perfect balance. The high slit provides a more contemporary flair for the bride ready to step out in all her glory. Detachable sleeves can be on or off shoulder to play up the flowing feel or be removed to place the emphasis on the minimalist bodice and opulent skirt.  The fabric embraces curves with a sleek flowing texture for consistent elegance. No matter which variation, this glamorous gown will bring out the inner goddess in the bride that selects it.

We envision a bride in this dress enjoying an intimate evening vineyard ceremony and embracing her divinity in an outdoor reception under the stars.

Luxe Minimalist: This satin stunner is simply fabulous, darling

Luxe Minimalist wedding dress: This satin stunner is simply fabulous, darling

Graceful, sumptuous, timeless, and chic all describe this fabulous gown. For the minimalist bride who loves the romance of a ball gown, this dress is the perfect blend of simplicity and luxury. Matte satin has a soft sheen that is expertly crafted into a classic ball gown silhouette. The daring v neckline is contemporary, the bare back is trendy, and the deep box pleats lean into an old-world feeling. And to add just that little extra, a perfect line of fabric covered buttons runs from the waist to the very end of the train. This gown is truly stunning.

We can picture our minimalist bride embracing the luxury of lush greenery, live plants, and enchanting lighting for a December wedding in the Meijer Gardens Palm House.

Rose Queen: floral lace and exposed boning are romantic and dreamy

Rose Queen wedding dress: floral lace and exposed boning are romantic and dreamy

Whimsical floral cutouts, gliding crepe, and trendy exposed boning, what could be more romantic? This dress is both structured and flowing, a vision of lace and crepe. The square neckline, sheer bodice, exposed boning, and sleek spaghetti straps hint at a vintage boudoir inspiration. Floral lace is the standout feature of this dreamy gown, decorating the sheer bodice, detailing the sleek waistline, and then the chic column skirt drifts into a light and airy lace chapel train. Curvy brides will love the way the flattering scooped back brings the minimal straps and structured bodice together into perfect, figure-embracing harmony.

We expect to see a bride in this gown posing for her wedding photos on a vintage Carousel showered by rose petals.

Enchanting Sophisticate: Lustrous and classic, this gown is subtly effervescent

Enchanting Sophisticate wedding dress: Lustrous and classic, this gown is subtly effervescent

Tiny pearls outline the gorgeous graphic lace that adorns this classic deep v-neck bodice. A banded waist that highlights natural curves brings the subtle sating skirt into focus. This gown is suave and graceful with just enough sparkle for effortless allure. The elegantly draped satin skirt picks up the light in an appealing way and an A-line silhouette is always an absolute classic, leaning into a princess feel without going full ball gown. The deep v of the back echoes the v neckline and the fabric covered buttons down the train add a hint of vintage to the design. This dress effortlessly blends traditional wedding fabrics of lace and satin into a modern gown that is radiant, sophisticated, and altogether enchanting.

We can imagine a bride in this dress surrounded by colorful orchids at her ceremony in a mid-century modern church or synagogue.
