Rachel & Bryan - Botanical Gardens

I have to give Rachel and Bryan so much credit (besides what a beautiful couple they are!). This lovely couple got married on one of the hottest summer days we had all year - outside - at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens. But the heat couldn't compare to how "hot" they looked! Rachel's wedding gown was "Arden" by Maggie Sottero. This lightweight sumptuous silk gown was romantic with a soft sweetheart neckline, A-line silhouette, and embellished with lace and a scalloped lace hem. It was timeless and breathtaking!

For her bridesmaids Rachel chose style #8001 by designer D'Zage. The full length dresses were in a rich scarlet color. A style for almost any body shape, the satin strapless dress with an empire waist and asymmetrical pleats throughout the bodice, also had a slight back train, adding flair and formality.

The groom and his groomsmen wore crisp white, classic cut 2-button tuxedos to compliment Rachel's classic white wedding gown. Picture perfect! To see these tuxedos or other options for your bridal party visit our store or go to our suppliers website - Jim's formalwear.
