A woman's wedding gown is one of the most important dresses she'll ever wear and often the most elaborate. There are so many styles, shapes, and cuts. And oftentimes, it can get confusing to know which kind of dress is just right especially when each season brings new trends. We wanted to share our top five favorite bridal gowns presented by Caprice Bridal Boutique at the 2015 Harsanik Bridal Show in the hopes that it would make your wedding dress search a bit easier. 

First up, this Trumpet gown has so many details we love. The skirt has edgy ruffles and the sweetheart cut is soft. All the details make this glamorous.

The center of attention at any wedding is, naturally, always the bride. As such, it is crucial, neigh mandatory, for a bride to look the part. This entails investing in a dress that will be the envy of all, and in a hairstyle that will be sure to turn heads. There are a number of hairstyles that brides can try out for their special day. These hairstyle ideas will give a bride an idea of what to ask for when they step in to a hair salon in Los Angeles, only hours before taking the fateful walk down the aisle.

1. The Bohemian Goddess

Curled long hair, styled and accessorized properly, can create a dazzling ethereal and bohemian look. This hairstyle features loose, soft tendrils, curled to accentuate the face. It can be accessorized using delicate floral headpieces and lace veils, perfect for a rustic outdoor wedding.

There are so many things to consider when planning a wedding, one of the most important being the music. Many couples choose their first dance song before any other, and consider their first dance to be one of the most important parts of the reception. With so many decisions to make, we wanted to provide some inspiration that may make your search for the perfect love tune just a bit easier. From Pop to rock to contemporary Armenian songs, DJ International put together a list of the sweetest songs for your first dance. We've created a video with previews from each song. Take a listen and share your favorites with us in the comments section below!

Los Angeles is one of the most exciting places in the world, and the city and surrounding communities boast a generous number of beautiful wedding locations. Are you looking for a first class banquet hall or a hotel? An indoor or outdoor venue? With so many options to choose from, we spoke with Ani Keshishian from L.A. Banquets and got some advice on the top questions you need to ask before signing a contract.

We are so excited to have the Harsanik Bridal Show be featured by two of our favorite wedding magazines, Modern Luxury Brides and Ceremony Magazine.
