Call it the Pnina Tornai effect—corsets are coming up sheer and sexy for Spring! We saw plenty of exposed boning on the runway this season, and we think the look is great for the bride who wants to show off her hard-earned wedding figure. More trends we noticed: draped backs, illusion necklines, modern peplums, and the Carrie Bradshaw flower corsage.

Happy Monday, PW readers! It’s a little drizzly here in DC, but you know what they say about April showers. And since it is almost May, we thought we’d go ahead and fulfill the rest of that idiom with some pretty pink flowers! Eliza and Don’s Meridian House wedding was largely inspired by the lovely peony. “They really brought a smile to the bride’s face,” says Bash event coordinator Terri Eaves, “and most of the details were planned with them in mind.” Scroll through for highlights from their 1940′s-esque affair, all captured beautifully by Eli Turner Studios, then visit the full gallery for even more romantic details.

From nameplate necklaces to Manolo Blahnik mania, Sex & the City kicked off many trends in both the fashion and bridal worlds. Feminine and flirty, one our favorite Carrie Bradshaw looks was the flower corsage she pinned to belts, lapels, and everything in-between. Many designers showed blooms pinned at the waist for Spring 2014, and we couldn’t be more happy that the style just might be making a comeback. It’s the perfect something extra for a spring ceremony, don’t you think?

Here at Project Wedding, we’re big fans of any fashion-y spin on traditional bridal style. While peplums will always be a flirty addition to any silhouette, we appreciate that designers went slightly more avant-garde with the look this season. Instead of a small, even ruffle all the way around the waist, the new take for Spring 2014 is larger, asymmetrical, and architectural.  We love the look, but what you do think? Would you wear it, or are you sticking with the standard style?
