The royal bridal gown had lace on the bodice and skirt, but it was the sheer lace sleeves that left people gasping. Without a doubt, long lace sleeves are now the hottest wedding trend going. Happily, many bridal designers already offer many elegant gowns featuring those gorgeous sleeves, so you won't have to wait until next season to find a similar dress to Kate's. Priscilla of Boston has several stunning gowns with lace in their collection. One of the loveliest is actually a silk ballgown with a removable lace jacket. That is an excellent option for brides who wish to have the look of the lace sleeves for the ceremony, but want a strapless dress for the reception. Pearl bridal jewelry would be the ideal accompaniment to the classic lines of the Priscilla lace gowns.

Designer Elizabeth Fillmore is another to offer a wedding gown with lace sleeves. She shows a dress which has all-over lace in a soft fluid style. The sleeves are to the elbow, rather than full length, and the vibe is far less formal and traditional than some of the other lace gowns. Elizabeth Fillmore's lace dress is more vintage-romantic than princess-grand. It would be lovely for a bride getting married in an historic mansion, a beautiful garden, or even a wooded clearing.

For brides who really do want to feel like a princess on their wedding day, the Legends by Romona Keveza may have just what you are looking for. She has a gown in her collection which is a cross between two of the loveliest-ever royal brides: Kate Middleton and Grace Kelly. The gown features a v-neckline, similar to Kate's gown, and has a very flattering cummerbund style waist. The lace used is very delicate and feminine. Pair this gown with an opulent set of crystal and pearl bridal jewelry and a lace edge veil.

There are also some gorgeous lace bridal gowns available within a fairly affordable price range. Wtoo Brides makes a very sweet lace wedding dress with elbow length sheer lace sleeves. The gown has a lovely scalloped neckline and a sophisticated modified trumpet silhouette. This is a style which would look just as fantastic on a second time bride as a young first time bride. The Pronovias line also includes a moderately priced wedding dress with elbow length sleeves over a traditional strapless wedding gown. The sweetheart neckline is quite pretty, making this a wonderful choice for a bride who likes classic lines paired with romantic lace.

These are just a few of the stunning options for royal-inspired wedding gowns. Brides who are getting married will surely find even more fabulous lace sleeved bridal gowns appearing in the shops by fall. The look of romantic lace is an enduring style, that will always look as timeless as it does current.

There are so many wedding dress styles available in stores and on the internet that choosing just one can be a bit overwhelming for contemporary brides to be. But don't stress out over what should be the most fun aspect of your wedding preparations. There are ways to narrow your options to make it a little easier to hunt down that perfect dress.

First, determine how formal the wedding will be. You've probably had your dream wedding in mind since you were a little girl. Explore that dream and decide what you really want. If you want to go all out with a formal evening wedding, restrict yourself to looking only at formal gowns when you begin your hunt. After all, there's no point in looking at casual dresses if you're not interested in them.

One formal gown to consider is the Vineyard Style Rae. This silk and cotton Faille gown is cut to hug your body from the strapless bodice to the knees. At that point, it flows into a full mermaid style skirt to create an elegant silhouette. The fabric is cut with spiral slot seaming for a slimming look. This is an elegant choice for the most formal evening wedding.
