The Bride's Wedding Dress...

     Over the weekend I participated in a great event! "Here Come the Brides: A Century of Wedding Attire" was the featured exhibit at the Sigal Museum in Easton, PA.  The museum sits on the site of a former bridal gallery.  The highlight of the event was the exhibition of the Kingston family 120-year-old restored lacy couture-wedding gown.  The story of this dress has garnered global headlines!

     The gowns exhibited gave us the evolution and vast diversity of style, colors and unique fabrications of a bride's wedding dress over the century. 

A Bride is a woman on her wedding day. 
A Wedding Day is a celebration of a marriage 

A Wedding Dress is an expression of each bride's individual style. 

As ever,
