Walking in a Wedding Wonderland

/in , , /by

With Fall quickly coming to an end, winter is upon us. We say goodbye to those autumn reds, oranges, yellows, and greens, and bring in the winter whites, cool blue, and deep reds. Winter is the perfect season to bring out holiday colors, go bright and sparkly, wear some elegant sleeves, and top it all off with a gorgeous fur coat. 

Winter Dresses: Embracing Elegance and Warmth

Don’t let the chill of winter deter you from choosing the wedding dress of your dreams. While strapless gowns may be synonymous with summer weddings, there’s a world of enchanting options perfectly suited for a winter wonderland celebration. Winter weddings present a unique opportunity to embrace elegance and warmth with the addition of one simple detail: sleeves.

1. Embracing Sleeve Elegance: When the temperature drops, sleeves offer not only practical warmth but also a touch of timeless elegance that sleeveless designs can’t quite capture. Long sleeves exude sophistication and grace, enveloping the bride in a delicate embrace as she glides down the aisle. Whether adorned with intricate lace, delicate beading, or sheer fabrics, winter brides adorned in sleeved gowns emanate a regal aura that is simply enchanting.

2. The Allure of Off-the-Shoulder Styles: For brides who crave the best of both worlds – the allure of a strapless neckline coupled with the warmth of sleeves – off-the-shoulder dresses are the perfect choice. These romantic designs feature a flattering neckline that highlights the collarbones and shoulders while gracefully transitioning into sleeves, offering coverage without sacrificing style. The result? A captivating ensemble that exudes romance and sophistication, perfect for a winter wedding affair.

3. Versatility in Design: Winter dresses with sleeves come in a myriad of styles, allowing brides to express their individuality and personal taste. From classic ball gowns with full-length sleeves to modern sheath dresses with illusion sleeves, there’s a silhouette to suit every bride’s vision. Whether you envision a fairytale-inspired gown with billowing sleeves or a sleek and chic design with minimalist detailing, the options are endless when it comes to winter dress styles.

4. Embracing the Winter Wonderland Aesthetic: Winter weddings offer a unique opportunity to embrace the beauty of the season, and what better way to do so than with a gown that complements the snowy landscape? Opting for a dress with sleeves not only adds a practical element to your ensemble but also enhances the romantic ambiance of a winter wedding. Imagine exchanging vows amidst a blanket of snow, adorned in a gown that exudes warmth and enchantment – a truly magical moment to cherish for a lifetime.

5. Accessories for Added Warmth: To further enhance your winter bridal look, consider incorporating accessories that provide both style and warmth. A faux fur stole or capelet adds a luxurious touch while keeping you cozy during outdoor photo sessions or chilly evening receptions. Additionally, accessorizing with long gloves or a delicate bolero can provide an extra layer of warmth without compromising on style, allowing you to stay comfortable and chic throughout your winter wedding celebration.

In conclusion, winter dresses with sleeves offer brides the opportunity to embrace elegance, warmth, and romance on their special day. Whether you prefer classic sophistication, modern allure, or whimsical charm, there’s a winter dress style to suit every bride’s unique vision. By choosing a gown with sleeves, you’ll not only stay warm and comfortable but also radiate beauty and grace as you say “I do” in the midst of a winter wonderland.

Wedding Day Shoes

/in , , /by

Your shoes are a big part of your wedding day. Although they might not be completely visible underneath your dress, they are certainly something you put a lot of thought into. You’ll be taking that classic shoe photo and showing them off any chance you get. But you’ll also be standing in them, walking in them, dancing in them, and probably kicking them off at the end of the night. So, you want to make sure they are beautiful, comfortable, and special enough to create fabulous memories in the whole day through.  

Flats 

Maybe you didn’t consider it, but flats are a great option for a tall bride or one that just wants to be comfortable all day long. You can choose a simple pair that you feel comfortable in, or go with a pair that is bright and blingy.  

Small Rhinestone Heels

The heels on these shoes are short enough that your feet won’t be screaming by the end of the night. They also have a little bling on them to make you shine throughout the night. They are super comfortable and will make for the nicest photos.  

High Statement Heels

For added height and heels that are sure to make you stand out, these are a great option. Again, they are comfortable and won’t have you aching all day, but are still a statement-making shoe for your big day.  

Wedges

A wedge heel is a great way to add height with an extra bit of comfort. These are also a great option for an outdoor wedding, where you won’t have to worry about your heel getting stuck in the sand or grass. Go small or go big, but either way, you’ll be comfortable and fashionable. 

Sneakers 

For that added comfort or even a pair to switch to later on in the night, a pair of bridal sneakers is what you’ll need. These are always fun because sneakers are easy to customize. A custom pair of Toms on your wedding day with your favorite characters or quotes will be a fun addition to your wedding day and something you’ll remember forever.  

 

 

 

Creative Wedding Cake Toppers

/in , , /by

Wedding cake toppers used to be simple: a little bride and groom to symbolize your marriage. Nowadays, cake toppers are much more personal. They can symbolize the bride and the groom with animals, silhouettes, fun characters, or just something the bride and groom both love.  

If you and your groom prefer to keep things simple, a monogram is a nice way to add a personalized touch to your cake.  

It’s your best day ever, so why not celebrate that with the best day ever cake topper? It’s simple, elegant, and says it all. 

For those that love to have fun, and share a love of a particular movie or show, why not put that on your cake? It will show off your personalities, without taking over the entire wedding. People will be snapping photos of your cake all night long. You’ll also have a statement piece in your home for the rest of your lives to commemorate your wedding day.  

If animals are your thing, then top your cake with them! You can go cute, like these little birds and foxes, or fun and whimsical, like the fox and giraffe.  

On your wedding day, choose what matches you and your groom’s personalities best. A simple cake topper may not stand out, but if you love it, then it’s meant to be.
