Sarah Jessica Parker and GILT Are Teaming Up to Make Affordable Wedding Dresses

Whether you’re still swooning over the stunning Vivienne Westwood gown that Carrie Bradshaw almost wore to marry Mr. Big, or you prefer the label-less white suit she chose instead, we’ve got the best news for you. Sarah Jessica Parker is teaming up with Gilt on a bridal collection, and it’s perfect for the stylish bride on a budget.

According to Women’s Wear Daily, the fashion collaboration of our wedding day dreams is finally becoming a reality. Gilt is exclusively releasing SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker Bridal, the brand’s first ready-to-wear bridal collection, featuring 10 styles for brides during every happy occasion, from the engagement party to the big day.

WWD reports that the 10-piece collection will feature a mix of bodysuits, gowns, skirts, and a jumpsuit in a range of colors, including “traditional bridal white and black,” as well as blush, poppy, light gray and blue.

Sex and the City fans will be thrilled to know that Parker’s first wedding collection was produced in her home state of New York, using “cashmere and stretch crepe sourced from Spain, Italy, and France,” according to the brand. It’ll feature elements from Parker’s signature sense of style, including bows, cutouts, feathers, and beading.

On working with the Divorce star, Tom Ott, chief merchant of Gilt, said, “Not only is Sarah Jessica Parker’s style known around the world, her point of view is one-of-a-kind. Sarah Jessica brings her impeccable taste and fashion sensibility to life in this collection. We think our customers will be delighted with the offering which is stylish and well-priced in the bridal category.”

Brides-to-be won’t have to break the bank to snag one of SJP’s designs, either. Prices range from $295 for a sleeveless bodysuit to $2,395 for an embroidered gown, with sizes from extra small to large for the bodysuits and 0 to 14 for everything else.

And if you want to channel Carrie from head to toe, you’re in luck: the collection will also feature 15 exclusive shoe styles from the SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker footwear collection in prices ranging from $350 and $485.

As for why she decided to delve into bridal, Parker says she was listening to her customer’s wants and needs. The designer told WWD, “We kept having these wonderful women of all ages and backgrounds and sizes and shapes, they kept telling us they were buying for their wedding and they were not buying what would be conventionally thought of as a bridal shoe. We recognized that there was this space where brides were looking for something that felt different, that suggested who they were. So we were encouraged to create a bridal collection within our collection, so in those deliveries, we always have a bridal shoe. But people tend to use our shoes anyway outside of that for that special occasion.”

The SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker Bridal Collection is available on Gilt.com.

One of the many difficult things about having a COVID wedding was that I didn't get to fully enjoy being engaged. Not that I didn't enjoy it by any means, but I didn't get to do the typical "bridal" events that most people got to do since everyone and everything was on lockdown. No extreme Bachelorette trip, no huge showers, and definitely not a big reception with a bunch of friends.

As a fashion lover, this means I didn't get to wear a million all-white outfits and make being engaged my whole personality — like I would at this point in my life. With that being said, I can't help but see how many amazing bridal pieces are out there on the market...and it's making me wanna get married (to my husband) all over again. Since I can't, here are all the bridal outfits pieces that I can't get enough of right now. From bridal shoes to bachelorette looks, these are the pieces I've got my eye on!

Bridal Dresses

Reformation

Reformation Pike Satin Dress

This dress is sleek, chic, and so perfect for fall and winter wedding vibes. Whether you're going out on a classy dinner with your girlfriends on a bachelorette trip, or you're getting ready for the toast at your rehearsal dinner, I love this satin bridal look! It's honestly the definition of "simplicity is elegance"!

Anthropologie

BHLDN Pearl Drop-Waist Mini Dress

Maybe I'm biased because BHLDN is where I got my wedding dress, but they truly have some of the most classy and fun options out there that also aren't exorbitant in price. This dress is under $500, and would make for the perfect Bachelorette party dress! It's chic, on-trend, and so fun with the short, tulle skirt and pearl detailing.

Nordstrom

Lilysilk The Vivi Knit Dress

Coworkers throwing you a bridal shower? This demure little number is perfect for those more modest bridal moments. You still get a fun, flirty, off-the-shoulder moment, but the tea length skirt adds a buttoned-up vibe that's perfectly appropriate. While this looks great with a pair of strappy heels, I could also see this knit number looking amazing with some tall brown boots in the fall!

Abercrombie

Abercrombie Off-The-Shoulder Long-Sleeve Mini Dress

Having an intimate courthouse elopement? Looking for a lowkey afterparty dress? Whatever the occasion, this Abercrombie option fits the bill! I love the elegant off-the-shoulder sleeves — it gives you a great way to show off your jewelry. Plus, the mini dress will let you dance all night long to celebrate your officiated love!

Dôen

Dôen Jessica Dress

This dress is that is giving vintage bridal in a unique, not-so-typical way. The contrasting black lace juxtaposes the white really well, and makes it less overtly bridal, so you can definitely wear it again! Add a vintage satin drawstring bag to really go with the throwback look!

Dôen

Dôen Donetta Dress

The bridal dress of my dreams! It reaches all of the categories you could want: midi, silk, and has a beautiful bridal bow! Can't you just imagine this with a fur coat overtop for the fall and winter?! It would be truly heavenly. Wear this one for an intimate bridal event, or even a rehearsal dinner.

Nordstrom

Reformation X Kacey Musgraves Dress

Kacey Musgraves just gets it. Her collab with Reformation was absolutely amazing, and when I saw this dress I immediately knew it would be perfect for anything bridal related. From the puff sleeves, to the lace, to the bows on the sides — it's perfection! I could 100% see this one looking incredible as a courthouse wedding option!

Abercrombie

Abercrombie Sequin Squareneck Mini Dress

Having a GNO to celebrate your upcoming nuptials? This sequin mini dress is the perfect way to say, "Buy me a shot — I'm getting married." Whether you're having a summer soiree or a winter night on the town, it's versatile enough to match all of your bachelorette party needs!

Nordstrom

House of CB Mesh Dress

If you're wanting a sexier option for a Bachelorette dress then this one is definitely for you! It has a more form-fitting cut with the mesh fabric and corseted bodice. Honestly, this is a 10/10 for me — I just know it's gonna look so good as we head into the fall and winter seasons!

Abercrombie & Fitch

Abercrombie & Fitch Strapless Dress

She's chic, she's beauty, and she's grace. I love the elevated and luxurious look of this bridal outfit — AND, it's on sale! To say I'm obsessed would be an understatement. This dress with a dainty clutch and slingback heel would be perfection for a reception dress!

Reformation

Reformation Tetty Dress

Can I get a little commotion for the dress? This Reformation mini will have you ending your reception with a bang! The long, mesh sleeves paired with the feathered bottom makes for SUCH a fun afterparty bridal outfit! Plus, you won't have to worry about sweating too much on the dance floor with the mini skirt and the lighter sleeves. Win-win!

Dynamite

Dynamite Clothing Tweed Dress

I'm convinced every bride needs a tweed, mini dress for bridal season — they go well for so many different occasions. I even own one right now just because I find them so cute and wearable. For this dress, I would style with ballet flats, and a sweater over the shoulders for very French look! I can totally picture this at your bridal shower brunch where all your mom's BFFs can't stop complimenting you!

Reformation

Reformation Fitz Two Piece

This is casual piece that makes you want to be a bride for just a bit longer... If I were to get married again, then this would be high up on my list since it's a two piece. You can wear it separately or together to really embrace the whole "white" and "bridal" theme no matter the setting!

Reformation

Reformation Jeany Silk Dress

Another great contender for a rehearsal dinner or reception dress from Reformation! This pairing with the fur coat and mesh, black heels is divine! It' giving the most wonderful White Christmas vibes that would be so ideal with anyone having a winter wedding. Grab this chic, classy bridal outfit ASAP!

Bridal Accessories

Anthropologie

Anthropologie Lucy Satin Pearl Bag

I love, love, love this bag. I haven't seen a purse scream "bridal" more than this! It would make for the most amazing day-of bag, or simply your bag to carry for any bridal occasion. Plus, for $110 that's a fairly good deal for how much wear you'll get out of it.

Cuyana

Cuyana Mini Bow Bag

Looking for something a little less showy as the pearl option? I love this understated option from Cuyana! The bow top and gold chain combo are so gorgeous together! Plus, pebbled Italian leather is gonna last you way longer than you big day!

Reformation

Reformation Natasha Heels

For any bridal events, I would opt for these heels, because they are simple, clean-cute, super bridal, and very easy to wear with almost any outfit option! They are so reminiscent of 90s vintage heels that I'm constantly searching for on Ebay. I might purchase these just for a good date-night heel.

Nordstrom

Dolce Vita Reyes Mary Jane

Looking for some flats to pair with your bridal outfits? These Dolce Vitas are perfection! The square toe and Mary Jane style are so on-trend! Plus, the profile is simple enough to go with just about every look you could throw together!

Anthropologie

ViBi VENEZiA Bow Mary Janes

These bow mary janes seem very bridal to me, and they get bonus points for also being great for daily wear too! They're super comfortable, and give the bridal touch with the bows. And guess what?! They can count as you're "something blue"!

Aside from Luke's coffee, the most iconic and consistent aspect of Gilmore Girls are Friday Night Dinners. Any GG fan knows the weekly dinner kicks off in the pilot, when Lorelai asks Emily and Richard to help pay for Rory's Chilton tuition. In addition to paying Rory's way through school, Emily also requests the weekly dinners be part of the deal (and while Lorelai assumes it's manipulation, I'm convinced Emily just wants to be in their lives!!).

But despite the fact the Friday Night Dinners are incredibly entertaining, I can't decide whether or not they're realistic for one reason: you're telling me Emily, Rory, and Lorelai had no Friday night plans for seven years straight?!

Warner Bros. Television

After a long week of work or school, Friday is always my night to relax and unwind. They're the night I crave time with friends, whether it be a movie night or going out to eat, or I just simply don't want to leave my apartment. TLDR; I've never had a standing commitment on Fridays. I have to admit I like the flexibility!

"Usually Fridays are for going out with friends and staying out late, and then Saturdays and Sundays are for the family," one Reddit user says of their own experience. "It [especially] rubbed me the wrong way because this may not be an issue with an older person, but Rory is 16 at the start of the show."

Warner Bros. Television

Rory might not have a packed social schedule, but I can't help but wonder if, after driving to Hartford every day for school, she'd rather just curl up on her couch with a book. But considering life in Stars Hollow is pretty chill, maybe it's nice to have some kind of weekly plan, and a change of scenery to boot.

Despite the time commitment, our favorite mother-daughter duo still has no problem maximizing their weekend. "The weirder part was that they had time for Friday night lingering social dinners in a different town and THEN went out on dates," another Reddit user jokes.

Overall, you might have to suspend your disbelief that Lorelai never had Friday night plans (or that she made double the plans — who has the energy?!) but it's one Gilmore Girls tradition we simply couldn't live without.

Warner Bros. Television

Even though Friday Night Dinners start off as an obligation, I firmly believe Lorelai ends up really enjoying them — and the fact they give her the chance to reconnect with her parents. I think she realizes she actually wants to be at the dinners (which is probably as surprising for her as it is for us), whether it be because she was finally replacing unhappy childhood memories with pleasant adult ones, or because she actually had fun going back-and-forth with Emily.

"Emily was the only person in Lorelai’s life who could keep up with her banter in a similar way. She may have channeled that in a different way, but Emily was just as witty as Lorelai," a third Reddit user says, while another agrees, "Oh, she definitely did. I think she always craved an intimate relationship and saw that her daughter could give her that [segue] into their lives."

And there's nothing that brings people closer together than sharing a meal. Pour me a glass of wine Lorelai!!

​Is there a Friday Night Dinner in every episode of Gilmore Girls?

Warner Bros. Television

Out of 153 Gilmore Girls episodes, there are 71 Friday Night Dinners. Meaning there's a dinner for about every two episodes.

​What episode is the chaotic Friday Night Dinner?

Warner Bros. Television

Given how chaotic Lorelai is (and Lorelai and Emily are together), I'm afraid you'll have to be more specific! But one especially chaotic Friday Night Dinner comes in season 6, episode 13, "Friday Night's Alright For Fighting." After Lorelai reveals Christopher is paying Rory's Yale tuition, she attempts to smooth things over by bringing Friday Night Dinners back. And as the title might suggest, things don't exactly go according to plan.

But if Luke, Christopher, or Trix is present for a Friday Night Dinner, you know it's going to be a memorable one.

The search for the perfect mother-of-the-bride dress is such an exciting journey. You want your final dress to be elegant, stylish, and sentimental, too! As the proud mother, you deserve to shine just as brightly as the bride herself, and finding a dress that reflects your personality (but also complements the wedding's theme) is key.

Whether you’re aiming for a mother-of-the-bride dress that's more traditional, modern, or a blend of both, we've got you covered with these 10 stunning styles that'll make you feel confident and beautiful on your daughter's special day.

Azazie A-Line Pleated Mikado Floor-Length Dress

This gorgeous $169 gown is totally wedding appropriate and oh-so elegant. It boasts a skirt that lands at floor length, a unique asymmetrical neckline, and a long leg slit all in a soft, non-stretchy material that feels just as great as it looks. The rich grape purple color will make you feel stunning! This dress zips up conveniently in the back.

Baltic Born Arianna Maxi Dress

You get the best of both worlds with this affordable (just $68!) MOTB dress. While the long sleeves have a good amount of coverage, the flattering v-neck and high leg slit allow you to show more skin. This flowy red number is made from a super soft and stretchy fabric, and has smocked detailing around the waistline to give your body definition.

Mac Duggal Long Sleeve Sequin Trumpet Gown

This dress just screams elegance! It's as sequined and stunning as can be. The long skirt flaunts a slight, sweeping train while the neckline is fairly no-frills. This neutral pick ($598) is fully lined for maximum all-day comfort.

Dessy Collection One-Shoulder Satin Gown

The knotted design on this $261 gown draws visual interest and flatters your figure beyond compare. The trendy one-shoulder look will also make you stand out without overshadowing the bride's get-up. This design includes a long maxi hem that grazes the floor. It's fitted around the bodice and slightly flares out past the waist, but isn't quite a traditional a-line silhouette.

David's Bridal Studio Cap Sleeve Allover Sequin Sheath Dress

Want to be drenched in shiny sequins? This is the dress for you. It has cap sleeves, an open back, and a sultry leg slit that lets you step and move with ease. Additionally, the fabric has some stretch to it and secures in the back with a discreet zipper. This pick is available on sale for 60 (was $200).

La Femme Off The Shoulder Trumpet Gown

This $328 dress is all about showing some skin – not a bad thing for a wedding, as long as it's done tastefully! This elegant off-the-shoulder design is crafted from a satin-y fabric, so it has some shine to it. It's most fitted around the bust and tummy before falling to a full-length trumpet skirt.

Mac Duggal Beaded Stripe Mesh A-Line Gown

These playful see-through mesh sleeves are everything. The stripes (along with some pretty glamorous sequins) also play a role in shaping your final MOTB look! This long dress ($598) is gathered around an empire waist to elongate your figure further.

Alfred Sung One-Shoulder A-Line Gown

This a-line skirt on this $239 dress gives your look much-needed breathing and moving room. It has a more polished look, thanks to the smooth fabric and waist sash. You'd never guess it by looking at it, but this pick also has pockets! The gorgeous green fabric is non-stretchy but looks so flattering when worn.

Dress The Population Janette Sequin Long Sleeve Mermaid Gown

There is truly no shortage of shininess with this one. It's the ultimate piece to match with other accessories and shoes, depending on the wedding theme. This $438 dress has a boat neck that falls to a v-shaped back as well as modest long sleeves that land right above the wrists. The high leg slit breaks up the look perfectly, too!

Alex Evenings Embellished Sleeve Knot Front Jersey Gown

This $199 dress has dark navy, drapey sleeves with sequin details, as well as a striking knot detail at the waistline. Since it's naturally flowy, the slightly stretchy material it's made from only amps up the comfort levels.

There are a lot of celebrity couples we love (Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce! Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom!), but if you ask me, nobody handles having a relationship in the spotlight like Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. This hilarious duo protects their kids, but they're also always down for a good time.

The couple first met in 2010 while filming Green Lantern, which has quickly become regarded as Ryan Reynolds' worst movie (the actor said he'd "genuinely rather watch just a f—ing 24-hour marathon of PAW Patrol). But, in addition to the fact I didn't think the movie was all that bad, it also gave the world the gift of Ryan & Blake's relationship. The couple quickly fell in love, tying the knot in 2010. Since then, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have had four children (James, Inez, Betty, and Olin), launched a variety of brands like Betty Buzz, Aviation Gin, and Blake Brown Beauty, and given Hollywood some of its most iconic movies — all while supporting and praising one another. Keep reading for their full relationship timeline.

How did Blake and Ryan meet?

2010 — Blake Lively And Ryan Reynolds Meet While Filming Green Lantern

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds met on the Green Lantern set. After they filmed the movie, they ended up going out with other people, but hitting it off with each other.

"We were buddies for a long time, which I think is the best way to have a relationship, to start as friends," Ryan Reynolds said in an interview with SiriusXM's Entertainment Weekly Radio in 2016. "About a year after Green Lantern had come and gone and we were both single, we went on a double date — she was on a date with another guy, and I was on a date with another girl — and it was like the most awkward date for the respective parties because we were just like fireworks coming across."

Their relationship quickly evolved to the one we know and love today!

"When my husband and I first got together, he would send me a bouquet of flowers every week, but he would always send a card and it would just be a sentence of something that had happened that week," the actress tells People. "Something funny or emotional that one of us said."

"Our wedding was becoming a disaster, and we didn't know what to do, so we called Martha!" BlakeLively told Vogue in 2014. "She said, 'Don't worry. I'll handle it.' She sent her team down to save us."

The wedding took place at Boone Hall Plantation, a former slave plantation in South Carolina, a location the couple is "unreservedly sorry for," Reynolds told Fast Company in 2020.

Channing Tatum may have to hang up his sexy dancing skills because it looks like Chad Michael Murray is the new reigning champ in his new film, The Merry Gentlemen. You can tell it's going to be a Christmas movie, but we're not talking about Home Alone or Jingle All the Way here. This spicy film feels more like Magic Mike going on a sexy and romantic journey through a small town — which sounds like something we'd watch more than once.

We love watching Chad Michael Murray in Sullivan's Crossing, but we're excited we get to see him prance around our screens without a shirt in the new trailer for The Merry Gentlemen, TBH. Here's everything we know about the upcoming film and what we can expect to see!

What's 'The Merry Gentlemen' about?

Katrina Marcinowski/Netflix

Written by Marla Sokoloff, The Merry Gentlemen is set to follow one former dancer's (Ashley played by Britt Robertson) journey to making sure the Rhythm Room — a "performing arts venue" — doesn't go defunct. It's owned by her parents, so she has personal ties to this small-town source of entertainment, coming up with the bright idea to surprise the community with an "all-male Christmas-theme revue."

Who's starring in 'The Merry Gentlemen'?

Katrina Marcinowski/Netflix

According to Netflix, The Merry Gentlemenwill feature a host of other faces! We'll see the following:

  • Chad Michael Murray as Luke
  • Britt Robertson as Ashley
  • Michael Gross as Stan
  • Marla Sokoloff as Marie
  • Maxwell Caulfield as Danny
  • Beth Broderick as Lily
  • Marc Anthony Samuel as Roger
  • Hector Rivera, Jr. as Ricky
  • Colt Prattes as Troy

When can we watch 'The Merry Gentlemen' on Netflix?

Katrina Marcinowski/Netflix

We'll be able to see Chad Michael Murray and more sexy shirtless men give us a show on November 20. We're not sure what it is, but there's nothing like watching Christmas movies right before Thanksgiving to get us in the winter spirit.

What have Chad Michael Murray and Britt Robertson said about starring in 'The Merry Gentlemen?'

Katrina Marcinowski/Netflix

We didn't think it was possible, but Chad Michael Murray was a little nervous about playing Luke. "I'd never danced professionally or trained by any means," he said (via PEOPLE). Though he has a thing for "going out and dancing," he's never done anything "to this level."

As to why he chose this role, Chad seems to enjoy a challenge. "When I see something and it scares the crap out of me, something in me says, 'Alright, well let's see what we can do.'" He has two thoughts — "'I'm going to fall flat on my face or have a lot of fun doing.'" If you ask us, that's the right spirit to have for a fun Christmas movie.

Britt Robertson was immediately drawn to the script and her role as Ashley. "When I read the script, I was like, ‘This is my kind of Christmas movie,'" she said (via Netflix). She also teased why she can't get enough of the cowboy appeal in the movie. "...I'm Southern...the hats, the boots. There's so much you can work with."
