Island Bridal creates effortless gowns and hand-crafted, one-of-a-kind, stunning headpieces that are perfect for destination weddings at Sandals Resorts!

Choosing the perfect destination wedding dress can be a bit of a challenge if you don’t know where to begin. What fabric would you be most comfortable in? Which style would best compliment you but still be beach or garden friendly? Luckily, premium, wedding designers Island Bridal have considered all of these questions and designed a collection of stunning gowns made specifically for the modern destination wedding bride.

Their 2014 wedding collection caught our eye instantly; we were amazed by the soft and flowing,  yet chic and modern look of their gowns. Each gown featured seductive cut-outs, illusion backs and intricate hand embroidery, embellished with Swarovski crystal elements, Czech crystals and Pearls. There was one question we had to ask was; what makes their gowns perfect for destination wedding brides? The secret is in the cloth! Island Bridal’s flawless, destination wedding dresses are made using natural silks including luxurious touches of delicate silk chiffons, silk taffeta, crepe and silk charmeuse amongst others.

Silk is a Destination Wedding Bride’s Best Friend

For a destination-wedding bride; Island Bridal recommends gowns that are made with natural silk fabrics. Although, silk-based fabrics are more costly compared to polyester fibers, it is ideal for a destination wedding because silk is an organic fabric which adapts to your body’s temperature. It cools and warms simultaneously, which is perfect for the sunny, Caribbean weather. Silk-based fabrics are also wrinkle resistant, light and durable, which makes travelling with your wedding gown a breeze.

Not only does Island Bridal create stylish and fashion-forward brides, they literally make the perfect gown for every aspect of destination weddings. Island Bridal’s 2014 wedding collection is every destination bride’s dream come true!
