Perfecting DIY and Elegance

Being artsy and crafty on your wedding details is one of the growing trends for decorating your special day. Not only is it fun to do with your friends and family, but there’s this certain kind of pleasure you can get upon seeing your guests enjoy and coo over your creations. However, DIY decors usually give out some sort of casual vibe so it’s a bit tricky to maintain elegance with this vision in mind. But fret not our dear readers! For our feature today is about a wedding that has perfected DIY and elegance (add some ‘vintage’ too for a little bit of oomph). We’ll let the pictures do all the talking – for now. Oh and before we let you scroll down, I wanted to point out how cute the little pink bowties the groom and his entourage wore. Adorable! Congratulations Kylene & Jared!

Outdoor Wedding with Red + Purple Accents

Our bride and groom’s wedding color accents, red and purple, are actually their favorite colors. See, not only do they match as a couple (read: their love story) but their preferred colors match tastefully as well. Also, their compromise on this difference was done well – only the bride and groom were adorned with red accents but the rest of the event had purple ones. This is truly a lovely wedding.

Styled Shoot – Savagely Sweet

This photoshoot is filled with sweet and soft details accented by dark and edgy hints. From the bridal gowns and dresses to the table pieces, everything just screams chic. The outfits’ designs are beautifully feminine but it’s either they’re paired with something that has a touch of black or it is black. The food and table details are in pink and black, which may sound unappetizing but once you look at them, they will be sure to bring out your sweet tooth. Despite the darkness and lack of appeal of the said shade as a traditional wedding palette, when used at good moderation, it can actually make your event classy. Besides, completely soft hues are not really for every bride.

Staci & Brett – Fantastically Charming

Prior to reading Staci & Brett’s account of their special day, looking at their photos constantly reminded me of the words “magical” and “fantastical”. There was just something so charming about their pictures but I cannot lay my finger on why. I figured it must be the backdrop since old rock textured structures and blue skies reminds me of fairytale castles but then I read a tidbit of our couple’s love story and how Staci got the idea of choosing a Disney Princess inspired wedding gown and I knew that even if the magical description of the event wasn’t planned, it surely wasn’t done in complete ignorance. Our couple even met in one of the world’s magical place, Disneyland! I hope you can see what I meant, and I know every wedding day is supposed to be magical but this one very much nailed that description.

Susan & Robert – A Fairytale Ending

I’m pretty sure every girl dreamed of feeling like a princess on their wedding day. That is why today’s feature will definitely inspire you and make you realize that even little girls’ dream can come true one day, at the right time with the right man.
