Wedding Dresses for the Modern, Boho Bride in Idaho and Beyond

I wanted to take some time to share some of my absolutely FAVORITE bridal boutiques + designers and why, with all you beautiful brides out there! If you haven’t found that dream dress quite yet, check out these incredible boutiques + wedding dress designers. Everything they create is absolute magic, and one thousand percent worth the investment.  Listed below are some of my favorite wedding dress boutiques for the modern, boho, yet elegant bride in Boise, Idaho– along with designers all over the globe!

Daci Gowns

I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Daci over the last couple months more specifically, as she worked in a local boutique in Boise and designed custom dresses! Her talent is absolutely unbelievable. She recently just opened up her own storefront near downtown Boise, and it’s the cutest shop! So so excited for her and everything that is to come. Not only does she design and create every single one of her dresses, but she wanted brides to be able to come in and see the process behind the dress that they dream of all their life. Each dress is so intricate, so unique, and tailored to the classiest boho bride and I love every single one she creates! Idaho brides, you especially should get down to her boutique ASAP, you’ll fall head over heels for these boho dresses!

Elsca Bride

A beautiful, personal, intimate experience for all you beautiful brides. Emily has undoubtedly outdone herself. An owner of Rust + Thistle floral, and now the most quaint little boutique in downtown Boise. Her dreams for her boutique originated from remembering the moment that she found her dream dress, and the experience she had searching for it— a memory that she holds so close to her heart. And the second you step into Elsca Bride, you KNOW that you will walk away with the same unforgettable experience of sifting through dresses to find “the one”. Elsca takes brides by appointment, which means its a memory that you get to share with only you and your closest ones, having the whole boutique to yourself to create an experience. And of course to go along with that, the designers that Elsca hand picks to carry are hands down some of the most beautiful, intricate, and lovely dresses. So much love all within this little boutique.(Not to mention that Emily is the cutest thing you’ll ever meet). So, Idaho brides again, run now!

Bo + Luca

Bo + Luca – I first came across Bo + Luca through Elsca Bride! And to say I’m obsessed is the biggest understatement. I dream of the day I get to photograph more Bo + Luca gowns. They’re slogan is catered to “for the daring romantic”, and I couldn’t have picked a better saying myself. Their dresses are something from another time, that brings back a sort of nostalgia that you crave. Each dress is so unique, elegant, and so beautifully detailed. The beading, sleeves, embellishments, fit— all so stunning! Forever wishing I knew of Bo + Luca for my own wedding day because I would wear their dresses in a heartbeat. Literally looking for any excuse I can to buy one? Or two or five.

Cathytelle

I’ve been drawn to Cathytelles dresses for years now! I’ve seen Tyler Rye photograph so many of their insane custom dresses, and I was immediately hooked on them. So many different styles, yet when you see one, YOU KNOW it’s Cathytelle. So many light layers that pick up in the slightest wind, they’re the perfect fit for any boho, modern-romantic bride. The most unique thing about them is they’re not all white, yet they are still as elegant and fit for a “bride look” than anything.

Reclamation

I’ve been obsessed with Reclamation for a few years now, ever since I had heard of them!! Trista pours her heart into each of these beautifully crafted boho wedding dresses, and they’re each so unique and stunning! Every piece that I’ve had the honor of photographing is so different from the next, and flows with the most beautiful ease. They are perfect for your boho bride who wants their own custom dress unlike any other. They’re also so pretty for any big occasion such as maternity sessions! (Some of my fave pieces have been maternity!!)
The dresses below are two I had the privilege of photographing in Kauai and Alaska for elopements!
