I'm back after a few months' break with my 2010 Bridal Collection, comprising four bridal gowns in a variety of styles to suit all tastes, ranging from slinky mermaid to fairytale ballgown to a sleek column silhouette.

I've made all the gowns available for adults and young adults, but do bear in mind that young adults cannot get married.

This set requires three external meshes by Biene, Chriko and Rosemat. I am sad that two of my favourite Sims 2 sites, 2-f0r-u.de and sim2-fashion.de, remain offline. Both sites had a wonderful range of interesting meshes. Fortunately, Pronupsims hosts several of these meshes and I have linked to this site as a source of the meshes in the meantime (this site is a fantastic resource for all things wedding-related for Sims 1 and Sims 2 and is definitely worth browsing if you're planning a Sims wedding). The fourth gown in this set uses the original base game Maxis bridal gown mesh - a lovely mesh, simple but elegant, which re-textures very nicely.

I have created a collection file which includes not only these new gowns but all of my previous formal gowns which would generally be considered suitable for use as bridal gowns, so now you can turn your CAS into a bridal salon. Have fun!
