Whitney has exquisite bridal taste. She choose a gorgeous Rivini gown at one of our first trunk shows with the designer. Its flattering fit-to-flare shape was made unique with intricate lace and a beautiful asymmetrical neckline. She complimented the look with a custom Modern Trousseau veil and Maria Elena accessories. Her maids were also dressed to the nines in beautiful blush lace Encore Collection dresses. We love  the girls black accessories- it helps tie them in with the groomsmen and makes the look even more chic. Whitney also booked our 'Day-Of Dressing Service', which takes any doubt or worry out of getting ready on the big day; from buttons to bustles, we have it all covered! It was such an honor to be able to dress Whitney ON the special day!
Every detail in this wedding was utterly elegant. We love the grand feel Whitney and Matthew's seaside wedding must have given the guests- our jaws would drop walking into the ballroom and setting our eyes on the nothing-short-of-spectacular cake by Ana Parzych! The stunning decor created by  Luxury Events Group, set off by the grand floral arrangements by  Salvatore Esposito, must have also been swoon-worthy.
A big thank you to the Maler's for sharing these images- the tender moments you captured were truly special.
Here is a recount from Whiteney of her big day and here experience at The White Dress by the shore:
"I've been dreaming about my Wedding Day since I was a little girl (as countless other girls have), and the reality of our Wedding surpassed anything I have ever imagined.  Everyone who played a role in our Wedding, whether they were behind the scenes or our guests, made our big day overwhelmingly perfect.  I had the pleasure of working with The White Dress By The Shore since the very beginning of the Wedding Planning Process up until my Wedding Day.  As a testament to the boutique, I found "The Dress" (with the help of Owner, Beth Chapman) the very FIRST time I went Wedding Dress Shopping during the WDBTS's Lace Trunk Show in October 2012.  Beth made my one and only Wedding Dress Shopping experience so amazingly special, and was an absolute pleasure to work with.  After trying on 8 gowns, Beth helped me narrow my options down to three of my favorites, where I was then able to decide on "the one".  Beth's patience, professionalism, and expertise during my gown shopping experience went above and beyond.  By the time I left the store that day, I had my entire "Wedding Day Ensemble" (gown, belt, and headpiece)--and could not have been more thrilled!!  Further, as I mentioned, I had the pleasure of working with The White Dress By The Shore up until my Big Day. Penny, the in-house seamstress is absolutely wonderful to work with--a HUGE thank you to her for making my dress "fit like a glove", and for ALL of her patience!!!  Shana  assisted me through the Bridesmaid Dress Shopping Experience and all of my Gown Alterations Appointments.  Even MORE special, Shana was there on my Wedding Day to help me get into my gown, and make sure everything went smoothly.  Shana was incredibly awesome throughout the entire process,there's no way I could ever begin to thank her!  What's more, is that throughout my entire experience with The White Dress By The Shore, everyone made me feel extremely special and even more importantly, like a friend.  In short, I can't possibly thank all of the ladies at The White Dress By The Shore for ALL of their help and EVERYTHING they did to make my and Matt's Wedding Day the most amazing day of our lives (I know he appreciated it! ;) )!!!"
Congratulations Whitney and Matthew- your grace inspires us and your wedding is one for the record books!
