Luxe Idea :: The Glove

Speaking of 'thinking outside the box" -I know you are always reading me say the same thing...

Be You, Be Original!

Modern wedding trends are proving to be not so modern after all. Couples are looking for ways to make their wedding special and unique to their taste. However when trying to find ways to be different couples often revert back to the golden era when women were more conservative and kept. Wearing gloves to cover ones hands was lady-like thing to do. Well, today is not much different. The glove represents a feeling of sophistication and class. Spring and winter weddings mostly is where you'd see a little glove like this get the credit it deserves.

Like this inspirational image of the woman wearing a fishnet glove, the perfect accessory to add bit of pizzaz, history and sophistication to your bridal party's attire.

Having a garden proper wedding? Or maybe a chilly winter formal event? Consider the glove.

Visit: Great Gloves Online for a huge selection of gloves in all lengths and colors.

Engagement Session :: Yan Photography

E-session, engagement session, love shoot, e-sesh, which ever way you call it the pre-wedding engagement announcement photo shoot has really become a very popular photo session to have pre-wedding day. Not only is the engagement session a great way to showcase your undying love for one another but it's also getting really creative.

Many couples (and photographers) are really thinking outside the box with these sessions and more often than not you'll see a very magazine-ready, editorial-like sessions like this one with Yan Photography from Utah. The session looks like a story coming to life in images, like it belongs in an advertorial in a local bridal magazine.

Totally "cute" and inviting, no?

I think the balloons and butterflies are a sweet and original idea.

What do you think?

Will you have an engagement session?
And if you do will it be traditional or more artsy like this session?

Luxe Idea :: Colored Shoes

One of my favorite modern wedding trends is the colored shoe, like this image below. It adds just the right amount of originality to your event design. Scared of color? No bother, add color in little bits like having your maids wear a colored shoe...no black, go for a vibrant hue! You'll be happy you did, and so will your photographer...
