Simple Wedding Dresses - with intricate details

Aahhh...the epitome of a wedding - the wedding gown. Here in Indonesia, wedding gowns are usually extravagant. Too extravagant in fact that sometimes, some wedding dresses, literally hurt my eyes. What with the lace, and 3 foot long-3 tiered veils, gloves on your arms (by the way, wedding ring put over the gloves? not a good look ladies), swarovski crystals, flower petals,.....and yes, I've seen all of those elements done in one dress.
I understand that brides have to be the center of attention, if not, why have a wedding at all, right? But you don't have to wear such an over-the-top-verging-on-grotesque wedding dress to grab attention.

Whattttt....simple wedding dresses can't have great details - you say???? Well, ladies, take a look at the wedding dresses below. All of the gowns below are very simple dresses, but with such great, intricate details. I am sure that these dresses will make you the center of attention, and in a good way ;)

Lela Rose - The Garden

Jim Hjelm - Style 8052

Priscilla of Boston - Style 4507

Amsale - Coco

These wedding dresses maybe very simple, but if paired up with the right body type and worn with confidence, will make everybody's heads turn in awe! So maybe, don't listen to your mom/mother in law/much older cousin of yours and go with a simpler wedding dress that accentuates your body. After all, it is YOUR wedding...
