Wedding Dresses, Now Featuring: Kleinfelds!

     For those of you newly engaged brides-to be, you are probably starting to search for that perfect wedding dress, the one that will make you cry when you know it's the one, and the one that your future husband will not be able to take his eyes off you while you are wearing it!  It's the dress that will take the breath away from every single one of your guests when you walk down the aisle.  But where do you start looking for that perfect dress!?!  Although there are great bridal shops across the country, (and I will try to feature various ones at different times on this blog) I want to start with one that is well-known to all, Kleinfelds in New York City.  You may know of Kleinfelds from the popular TLC show, "Say Yes to the Dress."  Today, we'll look at some of their bridal dresses in various styles to help you decide what you like best!

Sheath Gowns

Tea Length Gowns

     Although not quite as popular as floor-length gowns, tea length gowns are a great alternative for brides who may be concerned with tripping over a long dress when dancing.  Here are a few examples:
