This season weddings have moved towards more traditional romantic styles incorporating heirlooms in their styling. Many brides choose to go the DIY route allowing for a more personalized feel that allows the bride and groom's personality to really shine through. Some brides use mason jars on tables to hold arrangements instead of vases. I've also seen clothes pins used to hold seating cards. These concepts help the bride and groom make the wedding their own and very unique to them. Think of ideas that represent you!
Brides are opting to have their weddings outside using nature as a beautiful backdrop for their day as opposed to choosing an indoor venue. This can be a photographer's dream because their is nothing more beautiful than the perfect natural light on a perfect day! Imagine exchanging vows with your significant other as leaves cascade from the rustling trees. OMG, how romantic is THAT!! If I could go back in time and get married again I would definitely choose an outdoor location (what was I thinking?).
Rich colors and jewel tones are in this season. Plum dresses are hot , as well as emerald green, and cobalt blue. As a photographer all I can say is that I LOVE this!! I live for colors that POP! Give me some color to work with and I am super happy and as a client you certainly will be too :) This goes for shoes as well! Drop that tired ole white shoe! Get a shoe with the some color and flare! Your shoes will be the talk of the town trust me on this... I know.
Well ladies and gents, these are a few of the latest trends that I love the most this season. Find out what works for you and your groom and ROCK your wedding!!! Fall 2011!
