It's hard to find a dress with a bow in the back that doesn't make us feel like a little girl playing dress-up - but this one by Oleg Cassini is an exception. The bow in this satin A-line gown is big but manages to become a stylish focal point instead of a ridiculous add-on because it falls sensuously down the back following the daring line of the deep V-neckline in the front and back of the dress,.

The front (pictured after the jump) is goddess-like in its beauty, with the twist straps and ruched empire waistband. With a price starting at $750, it's worth checking out at your local David's Bridal.

This chiffon gown by Eden Bridal is part of their outdoor wedding collection, but we think it's so beautiful it would be appropriate at any wedding. Why did we choose this gown? Let us count the ways:

• Click here to see the back of this dress - the cut is sexy without looking cheap.
• The ruched bodice is comfortable and particularly flattering to women with smaller busts.

A short and sassy mini-dress for your wedding, this sweet concoction by Watters is subtly sexy in lace but still full of romance. And isn't that all you need on your wedding day?

The scalloped neckline and hem add enough interest to this dress that you won't need a veil. (Let's be honest here - most veils would be longer than this dress. This isn't for the shy.)

Available in sizes 0-15. Visit Watters.com for more information.

This gown by San Francisco dressmaker Siri is a perfect balance of full-on glamour and comfort - the silk shantug fabric is a sensual delight, the dress is big and bold, and it's all held together with an adjustable sash - so easy and oh-so-pretty!

You can mix-and-match (or contrast, as the case may be) the sash and gown colors to match your wedding colors. We think the navy color would look smashing with a gold or ivory sash - wouldn't you agree?

We've chosen this pretty bridesmaids dress for your navy and gold wedding because of its spaghetti straps and gathered bodice - both are casual yet delicate details that will add a touch of playfulness to your formal wedding. The simple bodice is accented by a sash at the natural waistline.

The dress is shown floor-length but it can be shortened to tea-length at no additional charge (bravo!).

Available in sizes 4-28. Check out Jasminebridal.com for more colors and to find a retailer in your area.

The intricate yet dainty eyelet-style detailing in the bodice of style 225 by Ada Bridal sets this gown apart from the seemingly endless sea of strapless wedding dresses. It's strikingly beautiful in its simplicity and nicely balances the full ball skirt without looking too "done."

Designer Ada Athanassiou has been in the business for over two decades and says that she "values exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail over commercial appeal and mass production" - we believe that this gown exemplifies that.
