Bridal is having a moment. Seriously—the last few months have yielded an astonishing number of bridal extensions from existing designers and retailers alike (here's Reformation, Mara Hoffman, and Bona Drag for starters. Even H&M and Topshop are getting in the game). The common thread? A relaxed, boho vibe: Think skinny flower crowns, crocheted lace dresses, beachfront ceremonies.
Fret not, lovers of glam: The the bridal big dogs didn't skimp on the ultra-luxe, heart-stopping gowns for Bridal Spring 2015. Designers like Marchesa, Reem Acra, and Carolina Herrera balanced the yards of tulle and beading with super simple bouquets and ultra-minimal makeup—Oscar de la Renta even sent a girl out barefoot—perhaps a nod to the low-maintaince bride. Check out 34 of the season's most fantastical gowns (plus close-ups!) in the gallery above.
