Little Black Number

Kat

November 15, 2009

This bride actually bought a prom dress to wear on her big day as she wanted a little black number! It fitted in perfectly with their venue (an estate) and it's beautiful and old demeanor - it was full of antiques which suited the couple and their style perfectly. The reception was outside held and decorated with butterflies and moss which certainly made for the perfect backdrop for photographs. With an English family who love football (soccer!) they had to get a game in there. The bride even bought wellies - black and pink of course - to play along in the rain too. Photographer Ingrid paid special attention to photographing this special part of the day. Thanks to Ingrid for sharing these with us today

Glam-o-rama

Kat

November 14, 2009

Burle & Martin had a creole glamorama wedding at The Metro Hotel. Their vintage New Orleans theme was culminated with a plethora of fishnets, feathers, masks, beads and Fluevog shoes. One of my favourite details has got to be the cupcake bouquet by Cookies by Kin...hello - how awesome!!? Burle's dress was by Venus Bridal and her veil was found at Etsy. She chose to get ready at a fabulous Du Jour Boutique , an eclectic store where she regularly buys funky clothes, accessories and hats - and the zebra wallpaper definitely made for some amazing shots! Thanks to Libby for sharing this funky day with us

Complete with Dirty Magazines!

Kat

November 14, 2009

This singer gal and Goth/Industrial/Techno DJ dude has a rockin' engagement session in a record store, complete with dirty magazines! The couple, who are both into tattoos, piercings and music even opted to show off their art despite the freezing cold day!

Eerie.

Remember when I told you green dresses were in?! Well that exact thing is what drew me to this amazing photo shoot at Clise Mansion in Seattle. The models brought their own clothes and the girl in the green gown actually found it in a vintage store in Portland. I love the misty, foggy and eerie setting of these. Thanks to Nick for sending these to me Credit: Nick Bartoletti

How to Blog – The Quickfire Round

Kat

November 13, 2009

First up, a little sorrrrieeee from me. With the Rock n Roll Bride machine pretty much taking flight over the last few months the 'How to Blog' series appears to have fallen to the wayside. Unfortunately whilst still holding down a full time job (where I work nights!) there are only so many hours in the day to catch up on such things. Anyway, due to the number of emails and questions I've received asking blogging questions recently, I thought I would try and address as many queries in one hit as possible with a bumper Q&A session. As always, I love feedback so feel free to comment below or drop me an email if you've got anything to say! If you still have any burning blogging questions that you need answered then please feel free to drop me an email and I’ll try to work it into Part 4.

Unusually for me I don't have much to say about this stunning, gorgeous and amazing vintage bridal shoot sent in by Allyson of Alley Kat Photography. The hair, the make up, the dress and the location do aaaaall the talking! Thanks so much Allyson for sharing these

Credit: Dixie Pixel Ooooh I'm pretty sure the internet has been oozing awesomeness just so I could include it all in my Thursday Treats this week! Behold this special bumper issue of tastiness - I couldn't leave anything out. Here are some of this week's yummiest morsels...

With Extra Sparkle

Kat

November 12, 2009

This little gift arrived into my inbox the other day from the ever delightful Brandi Thompson...I didn't realise it was Christmas already! You might remember Jayme from her engagement session with her (then) Hubby to be Matt and those shoes! Well from these it would appear that their wedding was just as Rock n Roll, gothic and pretty damn cool. Her dress was made especially for her by a local seamstress and the hat was from Leg Avenue to which she added her own extra sparkle! Thanks sooooo much for making my gothic fantasy's come true Brandi and Jayme! Credit: Brandi Thomspon Photography

Did you see this adorable animation that made the rounds of blog land a while back? Well photographer Jessie just sent me the wedding behind the hype...and Jennie & Brian's day certainly lives up to it! Balloons before the ceremony, heart shaped loveliness after and happily ever after. As always, Le SWOOOON! Thanks to Jessie for sending these over. Mwah! Credit: Our Labor of Love

Autumn Leaves

Kat

November 11, 2009

Oh yes, yet another autumn/fall/Halloween wedding for you lucky lucky people, but this one couldn't be further away in style from the last. Darby & Eric got married at Heritage Park in Dana Point California on October 3rd 2009 and the reception followed at Darby's Parents home nearby with just some of their closest friends and family. A super personal, uber stylish affair the couple really went all out to make it their own. I am absolutely loving the autumn leaf bouquets and subtle Halloween theming around the event - not OTT, not crazy, just them. Oh and I had to mention the bride and bridesmaid's dresses too... swwaaaahhhoooon! Thanks to Molly & Matt for the exclusive. Love love lurrrve

Medieval Halloween

Kat

November 11, 2009

The Halloween weddings have been pouring in and I can't say I mind at all! Julie & Bryan's wedding particularly caught my eye on account of its medieval, pumpkin, nightmare before Christmas accumulation. This is pretty much individuality at it's best!

The Most Beautiful Wedding Ever

Kat

November 10, 2009

Stand by, hold onto your hats and behold the post of a million photos! Coined by photographer Noa as The Most Beautiful Wedding Ever (and yes, I pretty much agree!) Zola & Derick's wedding pretty much lives up to the hype left by their adorable engagement session shot at their home earlier this year. ps Zola's vintage dress makes me want to cry it's so beautiful... Thank you SO much to Noa for sending these over to me as soon as she'd edited them, as always, I am truly honoured Credit: Featherlove Photography

WIN ♥ Free Trash the Dress with Erica Berger!

Kat

November 9, 2009

After the frankly ridiculous popularity of the Love Me Do free wedding photography contest, I have been chomping at the bit to get this next one up and running! Erica Berger...ahh what can I say that I haven't said before!? Her work is phenomenal, I'm pretty sure that's all you need to know! Go check out the interview I did with her a few weeks ago and remind yourself already. Got it? Yeah you have! OK, so hella exciting news people. The ever lovely Erica is offering one lucky couple a free trash the dress shoot and she will travel anywhere in the world! All you need to do is pay for her travel and lodgings (if applicable - ie if you are outside of San Francisco where she is based) and you could have your very own set of Erica Berger originals to adorn your walls. Ace or what!? To enter, simply drop me an email to kat@rocknrollbride.com entitled 'We want to get trashed with Erica Berger' and let me know is no more that 200 words, what your ideal trash the dress shoot would be. I want your idea, where you would carry out the shoot (feel free to include a photograph) and what you would be wearing. Although the contest is not exclusively open to already married couples the shoot will feature you in your wedding outfits so please include a recent photograph of you and your beau in your wedding finest if possible! Erica will then travel to you on a date decided between the 3 of you to make your idea come to life. As always think outside the box with this one. Your wildest and wackiest trash the dress fantasy is what I want - don't hold back! Our favourite entries will then go head to head in a public vote, which as we saw from last week can get pretty fierce! Terms & Conditions

Electic & Colourful

Kat

November 9, 2009

You lucky lucky things, I have yet another post of wonderfulness from Vanessa of Wildberry Design & Studio - the wedding to accompany the amazing Pin Up. Tattooed. Awesomes engagement shoot. Although this wedding has undeniable classic and traditional elements, it's the personal and Rock n Roll touches that 'make' it. They give the wedding the twist it needs to make me fall in love with it - and them! Plus it may well have the most electic and colourful gaggle of guests I've ever seen. Love them! Again, thanks to Vanessa for sharing Credit: Wildberry Design & Studio

Bonafide

Kat

November 8, 2009

Photographer Joy Marie posted a sneak peek of this wedding what feels like aaages ago, but as soon as I saw this tattoo/ring shot I knew I wanted it to blog! The full set certainly doesn't disappoint. Robert & Avery are a bone-fined Rock n Roll couple. He has produced rock greats such as Ozzy Osbourne and she is the founder and owner of a vintage fashion company, Making a Comeback. It may be cheesy but I can't resist.....ROCK ON!

Graffiti in New York
