Taylar and Neal’s Intimate Affair

Posted by Jeffra on May 09, 2012

Taylar & Neal

November 5

Langley, British Columbia, Canada

From the Photographer: “It was a sunny November day in Langley, BC for Taylar and Neal on their wedding day. It was so amazing to be able to capture their day and the true love they have for each other. “

A lot of the details were handmade, including the paper bouquets and boutonniere, which the bride made from old sheet music. Their ceremony and reception took place in a historic community hall that was built in 1909. It was truly an intimate and romantic affair!

So far, we’ve found out which wedding dress color you love (pink!), the best back (illusion, by a hair), the sleeves you’re swooning over (cap), and the modern lace treatment you like (bold). And today, we’re talking about one of the biggest trends that hit market this year: peplums!

A peplum is a ruffled overskirt that provides a unique silhouette to a gown – and they were in abundance this season. We saw them in all shapes, sizes, and fabrications, so we wanted to know if you’re a fan of the whole trend and if so, if you prefer your peplum to be big, small, or something in between.

Intimate NYC Bookstore Wedding

Posted by Jeffra on May 08, 2012

Sean & Kate

October 23

New York, New York

This wedding is a perfect mix of “hipster” and classic. The couple got married in the Housing Works Bookstore Café in New York. The venue had enough decor alone, that the simple details were perfect! I love that JBM wedding photography took shots of the bride in a bright orange chair in the middle of a NYC side street. Such a fabulous photo I know she’ll have, and love, forever!

From the photographer: “Sean and Kate are one of those couples who have been together forever and the world just wouldn’t seem right if they weren’t. That’s what made their wedding day so special. It was a very personal occasion and I was privileged to shoot it for them.”

Vote for your Favorite Wedding Dress Trend: Lace

Posted by Kim on May 08, 2012

Yesterday, we asked you to pick your favorite sleeve style. Seems like most of you prefer just a hint of coverage, in the form of cap sleeves.

This morning, we’re talking lace – the most feminine and romantic of fabrications. At bridal market this season, we saw designers use lace in entirely new and unique ways. So now we’re wondering which of these new lace styles are you most psyched about?

Spring DIY Vintage Inspired Wedding

Posted by Jeffra on May 07, 2012

Jessica & Sean

March 31

Clinton, Tennessee

From the Photographer: Sit back and enjoy this wedding with a glass of sweet iced tea and a warm slice of peach cobbler! Jessica and Sean’s southern wedding was March 31, 2012, at Mt. Hermon United Methodist Church — the cutest little white country chapel in Tennessee (built in 1894) that you have ever seen! And their wedding reception was at the Museum of Appalachia. Their wedding included lots of personalized and sentimental touches, including hand made bridesmaids dresses in vintage patterns, a quilt-square guestbook, tea-stained place cards from etsy, wood burn signs hand made by the groom, and antique china the couple collected at rummage sales and antique stores over the course of their engagement. The couple even found a plate from the same pattern the groom’s grandmother had – and that plate was for his mother on their wedding day. The groom & groomsmen had personalized cufflinks with their initials on them, and the bride also wrapped her bouquet with a lace doily her great-grandmother hand made. After dashing out of the little white country church, the couple drove off in an antique 1960′s Corvette Convertible. Their wedding cake was made by a friend, Charlotte Click, who was also the mother of one of the bridesmaids, who the bride had known most of her life. ~JoPhoto
