Novelle Bridal Blog

It’s been an amazing 4 years at our current location, but the time has come to move on.

In May 2013, Novelle Bridal Shop will be moving to a new larger, even more beautiful location!

We’ve got a sneak peak in this post here with beautiful renderings and sketches from our friends at Design Eye, who have been wonderful in helping us realize our concept.

We’re only moving a few blocks down the street.  We have loved being a part of the 124st business area in Edmonton, so when this opportunity arose to stay in the area, but expand our size, we jumped at the chance.

Our new address will be 10553 124st.  We’re just north of Stony Plain Road in a beautiful all-glass building.

If you have any questions or concerns or would like further details, please contact us at 780-761-0888 or info@novellebridal.com.

We’re having a great promotion for the month of December.  Its a good opportunity to pick up something to bling out your beautiful gown, or even as a gift for someone special for the holidays.

Our bride, Erika, wearing the cute and unique Sweet Pea from Ivy & Aster.  A Sweetheart starburst bodice with a low back and a full soft ball gown skirt. A mix of sweetness and romance for a playful soul featuring pockets in side seams.  We love the texture of the fabric used in this dress, which you can see quite clearly in some of the pictures below.

Came across this article and loved some of the points that it made.

Here’s 3 great tips of advice provided:

1) Wear a dress that fits your theme. Getting married at the beach? Opt for a fancy sun dress. Getting married on New Year’s? Definitely go for a dress with lots of gold or silver sparkle.

2) Earn bonus points if you can find a dress that is so non-wedding that you can re-wear it to other events! Get the most you can out of the money you’re spending…weddings are NOT cheap.

3) Above all, wear something you love. This is your day and you should feel like a princess.

They continue to list out 16 great choices in non traditional wedding dresses.  Here are some of our favorites:

Blushing In Pink Tulle Dress - $1,180 (Left)
Part ballerina, part bride… total pretty. Handmade and comes in several other colors.

Papillio Wedding Dress - $279 (Right)
Perfect for a garden wedding, or for any event where you want to look and feel like Tinkerbell.

High Low Hem - $795
The mixture of lace and satin, the asymmetrical hem… we can’t decide what we love most about this dress.

iPad Wedding Dress - $70,000 (estimated)
Design your own wedding dress digitally, and get 100 iPads in the process! This dress doubles as great guest favors! Yes, this one is a joke. But, if you know anyone who has actually done something so geeky, please send them our way.
