Step 3
Make a dramatic entrance (and exit!).
Heads will be turning to catch a glimpse of the stunning bride as she enters (and exits!) her wedding reception, not to mention while she is gracefully twirled around the dance floor for her first dance. Be sure to select a dress with beautiful design details to create a flattering silhouette from the front as well as the back.
One of our favorites is the Williams. The striking combination of Black and White is sure to capture every guests' attention as will the eye-catching high low hemline as it flows around the beautiful bride. Pair with elegant, minimalist Stuart Weitzman stilettos for a look that is both timeless and modern.

The hemline has risen—intentionally.
The modern bridal mini has shifted from an after-party alternative to a ceremony-ready statement--the Little White Dress redefined. It has become city-hall appropriate, rehearsal-dinner definitive, and wedding-reception essential. Structured, abbreviated, and deliberate, it signals confidence rather than compromise. The short wedding dress was once a radical departure; today it is simply a sophisticated choice for a white rehearsal dinner dress, a wedding reception second look, and an after party wedding dress. The bridal mini dress honors the heritage of 1960s couture and makes an equally compelling case as the second look.
Minimal design meets architectural intention in the Josette, a white strapless rehearsal dress and minimal wedding dress designed for modern brides. This style guide explores how to style a civil ceremony dress with purpose — transforming clean structure into a refined statement for rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions, and intimate wedding receptions.
Who says the magic has to begin at “I do”? For today’s modern bride, every event leading up to the wedding is a moment worthy of sartorial celebration. From the engagement party to the rehearsal dinner and every toast in between, creating a beautiful and unique assortment of little white dresses is an opportunity for each bride to showcase her personal style. One of our favorite options is to choose a little white dress with a subtle amount of sparkle.
