In the world of bridal and wedding planning, you often come across events and terms you have never heard of before. Trunk shows are one of them.

What are trunk shows?

Trunk shows are an event in bridal shops where boutiques feature one (or more) designers. The designer will send their full current collection as well as special request pieces from the brides or boutique. Brides may receive incentives to purchase during the trunk show as well as have the chance to meet the designer or the face of their brand.

on June 25, the forth week of The Bridal Finery Fashion Presentations was inspired by the mid century modern current trend. While home decor trends aren’t typical for wedding decor trends, Jamie wanted to show brides and wedding professionals you can take any trend and bring it to life through wedding planning. Details and decor was designed by REVEL. Jamie selected REVEL for floral & rentals for this presentation. REVEL is known for their unique aesthetic and cool girl vibe. Trending dried palms and colors of yellow, beige, millennial pink, and cream floral.

On June 18, our third week of our Fashion Presentations, we celebrated the begging of summer. Our boutique only 10 minutes outside of Orlando, was designed and stylized with tropical bright green palms, birds of paradise florals, and even hand painted palms featuring a royal blue color. When finding inspiration for this week, I took a ready to wear approach. While I am infamously known to wear a lot (I mean a lot) of black, I am living for the Spring/Summer 2019 neon trend. It’s summer, why not wear fun colors? We featured this trend while still keeping bridal and weddings in mind. During our presentation, attending guests sipped on our signature champagne drink and snacked on watermelon panna cotta with honey goat cheese balls and watermelon slices while we showcased our newest collection of designer wedding gowns.

Our Fashion Presentations are continuing through the month of June. While our first week was inspired by a flower shop and spring flowers, our second week of presentations took a different route. When making design and color inspiration selections, shades of lavender and soft blue kept coming to mind. While blush tones have been trending in floral design over the past year, I wanted a color scheme that went against what most brides have been requesting. During our hour long Fashion Presentations, guests sipped on our signature lemon and lavender champagne drink and snacked on lemon poppy seed cake bites with lavender honey caramel Swiss meringue butter cream filling and honey topping.

Each Tuesday throughout the month of June, we have hosted hour long Fashion Presentations in our Winter Park bridal boutique. Our Fashion Presentations showcased the latest trends in bridal fashion, bridal beauty, floral, decor and design. Attending our intimate one hour presentations ranged from Central Florida Wedding Professionals, local influencers, real brides, and bridal enthusiast. Guests sipped on our signature peach drink and snacked on mini peach cobblers with sweet Chantilly by Baker’s Cottage Cakes while we presented our latest collection of designer wedding gowns.
