  • Top Dresses For Guests Attending Every Type of Wedding

    dresses summer weddingsThe warm weather is here in full force, and that means it's not only Dress Season, but Wedding Season as well (it's all about dresses at weddings, after all!). So, to help our Roo Girls be ready to attend any weddings you're invited to this summer, we've put together some of our favorite dresses that you can wear to a variety of different types of weddings: Black Tie, Formal, Semi Formal, and Beach wedding. Check out our top picks by event type for dresses for guests at weddings below, and shop more looks at RissyRoos.com.

    Black Tie Evening Gown Sherri Hill 32292For a black tie wedding, we're all about one of our brand new Sherri Hill looks, Sherri Hill style 32292. This gatsby inspired fitted jersey evening gown features a stunning beaded neckline and a draped beaded back. This gown is a new addition to the Sherri Hill collection for Fall 2015, but it's a perfect choice for any formal event!

    Formal Cocktail Dress Shail K 3667Shail K. style 3667 is a fierce mini dress that's all about elegance. Shail K.'s signature, stylish beaded pattern adorns the lovely cocktail dress from high choker neckline to hem. Plus, gracefully bare shoulders finish off the divine look of this dress.

    Semi Formal Cocktail Dress Sherri Hill 1978Sherri Hill style 1978 is all about the classic Sherri Hill silhouette, which makes it perfect to bring a little fun to a semi-formal event, while still looking super elegant. The strapless short dress features a sweetheart neckline and a shimmering crystal beaded bodice with a flowy short chiffon skirt. Like Style 32292, this dress is part of the new Sherri Hill Fall 2105 collection, but who wouldn't want to wear this dress immediately?! It can easily be worn in the summer months, making you totally ahead of the trend.

    Beach Bari Jay BC-1500Summer is all about beach weddings! To get that beachy vibe, we love Bari Jay BC-1500. It's a strapless chiffon evening gown with a shirred bodice and a natural waistline, making this a dress that looks good on just about every figure. Maxi dresses like this one are so perfect for summer weddings for when the wind kicks up by the shore. But, if you prefer short, check out Bari Jay BC-1500-S to get this same style in a cocktail dress length. While this is a great dress to wear as a guest to a wedding, this look can also be used as bridesmaid dresses.

  • This Little Mermaid Wedding Will Warm Your Disney-Loving Heart

    Just about every little girl (and woman!) dreams of a Disney princess inspired wedding. From the wedding dress, to the cake, to the bridesmaid dresses, to the location...it's definitely a hard dream to pull off in real life! Well, online wedding marketplace Your Cloud Parade recently teamed up with singer and designer Traci Hines to bring one Disney princess childhood dream to life with a wedding photo shoot inspired by the Disney movie The Little Mermaid! Traci played the role of mermaid bride Ariel, while model Leo Camacho played the groom, Prince Eric!

    Check out some of the photos from the fake wedding shoot below. Plus... if you are totally obsessing over Traci's Little Mermaid formal look, don't fret - we have two gowns you can rock that are perfect to wear for Prom or your own The Little Mermaid themed wedding!

    Get The Little Mermaid Look

    Ready to see how you can get this look for your own formal event? Check out our two favorite ombre dresses below to rock Ariel's look!

    La Femme 19549

    La Femme style 19549 has the opposite ombre pattern of Ariel's (aqua to white, rather than white to aqua), but the dress reminds us so much of the ocean and mermaids that it's one of our favorites to steal Ariel's look. This chiffon gown has a criss cross ruched bodice that reminds us of Ariel's bikini top from the movie. The sides and back are detailed with gorgeous stone covered mesh and lace for just the right amount of glam for a mermaid. This look is great for a Little Mermaid look for Homecoming or Prom.

    Dave and Johnny 10064

    For a white top to aqua bottom ombre look just like Ariel's, go with Dave and Johnny style 10064. It's a long chiffon ombre gown with beaded straps and a sweetheart beaded neckline. This look is perfect for a sea inspired dress, while still rocking the traditional white for a wedding.

    Are you loving these The Little Mermaid wedding pictures as much as we are? Remember, this is all a faux wedding, so don't get too jealous! Plus... it's so easy to get the looks yourself, so don't be afraid to go for it for your next formal event.

  • Time to be a bridesmaid, AGAIN!

    bridesmaid again

    Never the bride, always the bridesmaid. Another one of my friends is getting married, which means another wedding to be a part of, another hideous dress to wear, another speech to prepare, and another date to find. Ugh! Here's my most recently story of searching for bridesmaid dresses with my latest friend who got married.

    So, as the story always goes, me and the (in this case, five other) girls go on the dreaded search for the "perfect" bridesmaid dress (I wish we could do this without the bride!). As we enter some hole in the wall dress store my anxiety immediately hits, the hot flashes start, and already I want this "happy, joyous" day to be over. As we enter this overwhelming, tiny store I am blinded by the sequins and ruffles. Mind you the women in the wedding party are all either happily, married, engaged, or in some serious relationship. Me, on the other hand...I'm still searching for Mr. Right. So, the try-on process begins. I hear the bride say, "I want them in something with ruffles, and fitted in the bust, and kind of high low." All I can think of is how my enormous breasts, and arm fat will be spilling over the top of this sequined shiny dress (ahhh!). As I see this vomit green dress with all the bells and whistles making its way over to us, I cant help but cry on the inside (but it's the bride's day, what she wants, she gets!).

    I am now shoved in a fitting room, which is being taken over by this obscene green dress, I cant even find the zipper. Fumbling through the ruffles and layers, I finally make my way into it. I hear the other girls gushing over the dress (were we not in the same dress?), because all I can see is a huge vomit mess of a dress. So I walk out of the fitting room, the sales associates are boasting our egos, "OMG that looks AMAZING on you!"  (Like stop lying this is horrible). So, it's official...this is this dress we will wear on her magical day.

    scary bridesmaid dress

    Now that I have the dress, I need the date, but there is no man I want to take with me to this wedding, considering the unflattering dress I will be wearing! Also, knowing my friend she will probably have us wear a feather or something really ridiculous in our hair. My friend has given me NO chance to find even a potential boyfriend at this wedding. Thanks girl! Cheers to the bride, and her Kermit bridesmaids.

    I think a shopping experience, especially for dresses, should be a pleasant, calm, organized experience. As I mentioned earlier, when I walked into this bridal store it was disastrous, and gave me immediate anxiety.  I love going into a store that is very well organized, and not a cluster mess of mish-moshed dresses. That's why next time that I am a bridesmaid, I'm making sure that the bride shops at Rissy Roo's to find our dresses! Now that I'm a Roo Girl, I've had first-hand experience seeing that Rissy Roo's provides the most professional, easy going, honest experience of any dress store that I've ever been at or shopped at online. They have such a great selection of dresses both online and at their store in Linwood, NJ that it's so easy to find exactly what you're looking for, whether for a wedding, prom, or any other formal event. I wish my friend would have come here - the choices of dresses are endless, and the sales associates will give you their honest opinion (unlike my kermit the frog disaster), which whether you are ready to hear that opinion or not, can be surprisingly helpful!
