Tag: wedding dresses with a sash

The Southern Weddings girls absolutely, positively adore Ivy and Aster. Let us count the ways:

~Their whimsical website full of gorgeous pictures from Elizabeth Messina draws us in and keeps us involved with their darling story.

~The products themselves are gorgeous. The intricately beaded accessories could add that certain wow-factor to any dress.

~Ivy and Aster is receiving praise left and right. Most recently in Lucky Magazine!

~Maybe we love them so much simply because they make some of the most breathtaking dresses on the market. Yep, that’s definitely our main reason for all this love.

We asked readers to step right up for the Style My Ivy and Aster and it seems that y’all agree that Ivy and Aster is something special. Dozens of readers answered which Ivy and Aster sash they preferred and counted the ways that the sashes could complement their wedding ensembles.

Congratulations to Lindsay, who picked the Starburst sash!

Definitely without a doubt I would pick the starburst sash. It would go so well with my ivy and aster dress! I wanted to get it but was going to see if I had room in my budget to do so. But winning it would definitely solve that problem. Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity!

Enjoy your new sash! I know it will look stunning with your Ivy and Aster dress!

Another fab giveaway coming up next!

    I was immediately drawn to D! The pink braided sash with the accents intertwined makes for a beautiful and modern affect. Any bride would look gorgeous with this detail! It looks like you could wear it in a bunch of different ways! In your hair would be another great possibility! I love the tone of the pink as well! Would look perfect with our colors!!

  2. avatar Elyse reply

    I love “B” the Starburst. I simply adore big floral statement pieces. On headbands. As broaches. I just love this style. And nothing would be more me on our special day than walking down the aisle in an equally charming, attention grabbing accessory. Adore!

  3. avatar Elyse reply

    I simply adore “B” the Starburst. I love it because it looks like a flower, and floral accents are some of my very favorite accessories. On headbands, hair clips, belts and brooches–I just LOVE big, floral statement pieces. And I couldn’t think of any other type of accessory being more me on my day. Adore!

  4. avatar courtney reply

    could we vote on the hottest shoes instead ;) the pinkish sparkly ones would be great for my rehearsal dinner!!!

  5. avatar Elizabeth reply

    I am in L-O-V-E with the velveteen rabbit sash!! The color is perfect–and one of my wedding colors!! It has been really hard to find how to incorporate the right shade of blue/green into wedding party attire (still looking for the right frock for my maids). This sash would look so pretty in the fall with my off-white gown! And its something blue… :)

  6. avatar Corrie reply

    Oh, that is hard to pick, but I have to say the Starburst! So very fun!

  7. avatar Bea reply

    I am absolutely drawn to the Starburst (B) sash. The dark color accent on top of a white dress is such a great contrast that shows off the waist line! Not only do I love the color, but the flower burst accent on the sash gives it a real pop that can make any wedding dress unique to the bride. I would be proud to wear this sash on my big day!

  8. avatar Jessie reply

    I like the icicle the best. :)

  9. avatar Elizabeth reply

    I adore the Starburst! It’s just he right amount of color and drama.

  10. avatar toviah reply

    i love the velveteen rabbit sash! it reminds me of greece or mermaids.

  11. avatar Becca C. reply

    It’s hard to choose, but I love the Velveteen Rabbit because it’s in my wedding colors! :)

  12. avatar Kim reply

    Totally torn…love the Velveteen Rabbit AND the Starburst. Do I have to chose just one?

  13. avatar Lori reply

    The starburst is my favorite… The contrast with the dress is great and the flower adds a fun, whimsical touch to balance the look.
    It was definitely hard to choose. If I were getting married in the winter the icicle would be a must!

  14. avatar madelynne reply

    I love velveteen rabbit! It’s a small touch of blue to add to the gown and I like the subtle sparkles infused in it! Lots of different textures!

  15. avatar Jennifer reply

    I LOVE the symbolism of the Tying the Knot sash. Intertwining love made so beautiful by an intertwining sash that you could wear for years to come and in so many ways. Absolutely gorgeous!!!

  16. avatar Kelly reply

    Starburst – it is beautiful on the dress and would be a wonderful detail to incorporate into other aspects of the wedding. The brown would work for any season and the whimsy of the flower adds feminine flair.

  17. avatar ashleyryan reply

    My wedding is May 21st and I have yet to find the perfect “something blue.” I would absolutely love love love it if the velveteen rabbit was it!

  18. avatar Bella reply

    I love the glamour of the icicle sash! (D) I am wearing a wedding gown without any sequins or beading, so it would be the perfect accessory for some sparkle!

  19. avatar Allyson reply

    I love the icicle sash because not only will this look beautiful with a wedding dress but it could be used with other outfits as well and it would look so cute in the winter.

  20. avatar AshleyHH reply

    LOVE the Starburst. I love big flowers on things, and the contrast of the dark color on the white is stunning!

  21. avatar Kelley reply

    I love love love B) The Starburst!

  22. avatar Jennifer S reply

    I like B. I think it’s pretty! The flower makes it very bride appropriate and it accents the waist nicely.

  23. avatar Jenny reply

    Style A would match my color scheme wonderfully!

  24. avatar Natalie reply

    Hi all! I think the clear winner is the Velveteen Rabbit! That perfect aqua/robin’s egg color has always been a favorite of mine, and the velvet fabric and delicate design really fits well with the I&A aesthetic. I would adore receiving this! I would wear it with my I&A dress “loving thoughts” for the rehearsal dinner!

  25. avatar jessica reply

    Definitely the Starburst! It is feminine and elegant with just the right touch of simplicity…would be perfect for “something new” to wear on my wedding day:)

  26. avatar Kaitlyn D reply

    I’m definitely a Velveteen Rabbit! I love the lush velvet and the pretty pearl details.. just gorgeous!

  27. avatar Katelyn reply

    Oh I absolutely love the “icicle” on this bride. It is so feminine and sparkly! This adds a great detail to the dress without making it too busy. The icicle looks so delicate with all the beautiful beads on it, this is the perfect sash! (especially for a Winter wedding!)

  28. avatar Natalie reply

    I love the starburst sash. So many people do not think black is appropriate for a wedding day but I think it can really add a splash of color and look very elegant. The starburst sash reminds me of something Audrey Hepburn would wear in My Fair Lady. Pair it with a updo or a hairpiece and you would look so elegant. I would love to wear this on my wedding day and hope to goodness I win.

  29. avatar Nicole W reply

    I’ve been looking for a delicate sash for my dress and Velveteen Rabbit couldn’t be anymore perfect in more ways than one. Margery Williams’ Velveteen Rabbit holds a special place in my heart. It’s the first childhood story I remember my grandmother reading and it became a part of our bedtime story routine. Wearing that sash would be a beautiful reminder and a wonderful way of honoring her on our wedding day.

  30. avatar Jessica reply

    What a gorgeous giveaway! I adore the Velveteen Rabbit – I’m hoping to get a non-white, knee length dress, and it would be great to have such a pretty belt to dress it up for the wedding! My fingers are crossed.

  31. avatar Jenny B reply

    I love the Velveteen Rabbit sash! It matches my bridesmaids dresses perfectly…I have been on the hunt for something just like this for ages!

    The starburst is my favorite. I’ve been looking for a black sash to go with the dress I have yet to buy. =) Hopefully, tomorrow will be the day.

  34. avatar Marilyn Lobos reply

    C) the icicle is definitely my favorite! It would be great to wear for a winter wedding. Add some snow, champagne and wonderful family and friends and you have a beautiful bride with a beautiful sash to add on to a gorgeous dress! What a beautiful and amazing day that would be!

  35. avatar emily f. reply

    I’m in love with The Icicle! I can just imagine it for a winter wedding! GORGEOUS!

  36. avatar Rebecca reply

    B!

  37. avatar Audrey reply

    My favorite is B) The Starburst. The flower is just so whispy and pretty. I love it! I plan on wearing a flower similar to this in my hair on my wedding day, so I think that if I had this sash it would go great with the whole ensemble!

  38. avatar Courtney reply

    D) I love it! Simple and modern but still has a bit of an organic feel.

  39. avatar Jeannine @ Small & Chic reply

    The velveteen rabbit! I love that it’s thin, but has texture and a little bit of bling. I would compliment almost any color wedding gown. :)

  40. avatar kasey reply

    Definitely C, love the icicle! The cream color is simply pretty.

  41. avatar Alissa reply

    I thought it was obvious…the icicle! All are amazing but that one made my jaw hit my desk. Stunning!

  42. avatar mila reply

    I really like “tying the knot”! It would fit my rustic, outdoor themed wedding. I also think it would symbolize my bond with my fiance’- strong, tight, and able to uphold anything.

  43. avatar Allison reply

    I just love the starburst! it looks like it will make any dress just a little more flattering. i’m only dress shopping in a few months, but i’m sure i could find one that would love having this added to it!

  44. avatar Amy reply

    I absolutely love the velveteen rabbit!!! It just matches everything we’re planning into our wedding here in Sweden so well! The colors, the slightly vintage look to it, the coziness of the velvet. I’ve been trying to find velvet ribbon in that color for my bouquet. And the little flowers are so sweet! It looks a bit like lilly of the valley is embroidered in which is one of my favorite flowers and obviously one we’ll be using a lot throughout the wedding. I’ve ordered a beautiful dress from Sarah Seven but have been looking for a sweet little sash like this to give it a little something special. Great job Ivy and Aster!

  45. avatar Cristina reply

    I really like the ‘velveteen rabbit’ sash. It’s a great way to incorporate your “something blue” into your dress!

  46. avatar whitney freeman reply

    My favorite is B, the starburst!
    I love how it has a vintage look & would look amazing with the dress i have picked out!!!

  47. avatar laura reply

    the starburst sash would look perfect with the nicole miller wedding gown i purchased yesterday.

  48. avatar kelly reply

    That velveteen rabbit sash has the best name AND design!!! Love love love.

  49. avatar Laura P reply

    I LOVE the starburst! It’s modern, yet feminine. But they’re all gorgeous!

  50. avatar Sonia A. reply

    The C – icicle! It has the right amount of sparkle and winter “look” to it! It would go along perfectly with my winter wonderland theme! I would feel so unique wearing the gorgeous sash!

  51. avatar noelle reply

    i love the tying the knot stunning colors and would look awesome on any dress

  52. avatar Adrienne reply

    Considering that my wedding colors are black, white, and blush, tying the knot is the only sash for me. It’s delicate and intricate and down right lovely.

  53. avatar Erica reply

    I love option B, tying the knot, as it’s very symbolic and super sweet in those colors!

  54. avatar Dana reply

    I love C, so much pretty in one band — without being “too much”

  55. avatar Lindsay reply

    Definitely without a doubt I would pick the starburst sash. It would go so well with my ivy and aster dress! I wanted to get it but was going to see if I had room in my budget to do so. But winning it would definitely solve that problem. Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity!

  56. avatar Sacha reply

    I love the ‘tying the knot’ sash. So simple, sweet and pretty!

  57. avatar Jessica reply

    I love both velveteen rabbit and the starburst.. the velveteen rabbit would be the best thing for a something blue to add to your wedding day but the starburst would be better being from Charleston & having a Charleston wedding it reminds me of a magnolia flower which would be great also to add to my wedding to incorporate that southern charm…I go with the starburst!

  58. avatar Kelly reply

    The starburst gets my vote! It’s such a fun and elegant piece!

    […] light of all the fashion goodness that has abounded on the blog lately (here, here, and here, most recently!), I figured a stylish Southern Spotting would be right up our alley! […]

  60. avatar Natalie reply

    I like the velveteen rabbit because it adds just a hint of color and texture to the dress. It doesn’t detract from the traditional bridal look, but rather accentuates the waist and the dress as a whole.
    Love it!

  61. avatar Micah reply

    I love the starburst! It’s soft like a fairytale but also fun and funky…. adds a little pizazzz
