Sefanie - Love this inspiration board of ruffles. Would love to know which Vera Wang dress that is. It is fabulous! Do you know the name of it by chance?

Thanks!

alexanevents - Hi Stefanie! This gown is actually part of the White by Vera Wang line, which they sell at David’s Bridal. They don’t have specific names but they do have a lot of smiler skirts with different necklines, too. I love it.June 13, 2011 – 8:42 pm

sarah - any ideas on how to diy the ruffled chair covers?November 23, 2011 – 6:51 pm

alexanevents - I think it would be super easy if you’re familiar with sewing. Just head out to your local fabric store and get an inexpensive chiffon to form a square top and then use coordinating colored fabric to dangle the bottom ruffles. OR you could purchase cheap chair covers off the internet and add the ruffles yourself with some fabric scraps. Good luck!November 23, 2011 – 7:19 pm
