    The Unique Bridesmaid

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, bridesmaids, fashion, floral design

    A few weeks ago, Leila at Inspired By This did a fabulous post on mixing and matching bridesmaid dresses. I too, am a huge fan of the look! Bridesmaid dresses are seldom worn again, and giving your maids the chance to pick their own dress makes it more likely that they will wear it again, plus, they can pick a style they feel comfortable in. In addition to probably being worn again and being comfortable, mixing and matching dresses makes for some fabulous pictures and really lets the personality of each bridesmaid show through! After all, it’s personalities that make each wedding unique so give your maids a chance let their personalities come through too.

    Another aspect to help make each bridesmaid unique, is giving them different bouquets. It could be all the same color with different types of flowers, or different styles of bouquets within your selected color scheme.

    Dress Shots

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, Wedding Fashion, fashion, photography

    In most wedding celebrations dresses, like shoes, get their own personal shot. Since these shots require the dresses be hanging, sometimes it’s hard to get creative with the pictures but the good photographers seem to manage to get some incredible shots! Below are some of my favorites.

    To Veil or Not To Veil

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, Wedding Fashion, accessories, ceremony, fashion

    Several years ago, the thought of not wearing a veil at your wedding was considered crazy. These days, however, some brides are opting to not wear veils at all or to wear a small one for the ceremony and no veil for the reception. I have to say, I’m still a fan of veils, at least for the wedding ceremony. Veils can add drama to wedding pictures and long cathedral length veils are simply stunning when paired with a beautiful wedding gown. For receptions, I do like the stunning hair pieces though. I like the fact that you can get two different looks with the same dress, all from just changing your hair pieces. Below is some inspiration for veils vs. no veil.
