Real Rockers

So I was going to wait until tomorrow to share these, but I think I can't actually wait. I received an excitable email from photographer (and sister of Matt, the Groom to be) Joy Wilson, telling me all about how great her bro is (aww) and what talented musicians both he and his fiance Fran are. Fran even wrote a song that was used in the show 'The Biggest Loser' recently (it's shown during the daytime here in the UK and I have to admit to being slightly addicted to it on my days off work!) Thanks Joy!

Genuine Vintage Style

Kat

July 6, 2009

I get super excited when I find weddings like this, and I get even more excited when the couple send me all the juicy details so I can share them with you all. Sarah & Colin chose some really special details to make their vintage wedding just right. Sarah's ridiculously beautiful dress was a genuine 1950's vintage find from a small shop in Lambertville NJ, and her shoes, which perfectly match her dress, were from Anthropologie. Colin wore a J Crew suit with a pocket square that belonged to his Grandfather. The couple also went DIY crazy, making the invites, the name cards, and the table numbers themselves, Colin said to me "We spent way to much time using one of those round corner cutters! It hurt my fingers" but I think it was definitely worth it, the result is just gorgeousness. Finally the flowers were put together by generous friend and family helpers, gotta love them! A huge thank you to Amanda and Carina of Love Me Do Photographyfor sending me the images, and to Newlyweds Sarah & Colin for sharing their wonderful day with us.

Cutting Edge

Kat

July 6, 2009

One of the perks of my 'job' as a blogger is that I get to meet so many fabulous photographers, not only online but in real life (seriously I do leave my computer sometimes.) A few weeks ago I arranged a mass meet up of some of the best London-based photographers and was lucky enough to meet Russian born Zhanna Malaya. Now finally I get to share some of her stunning images with you. There is something about those Russians - their photography always looks so cutting edge, fresh and clean..I adore it, and I adore this cute cute couple.

Vintage Reproduction

Kat

July 6, 2009

What's not to love about this wedding? Amanda & Clint have been massive fans of vintage 1940's and 50's styling for as long as they care to remember, to what's a better style of wedding for them as this? Amanda's vintage reproduction dress is perfectly accompanied by her Groom in his traditional kilt (with a decidedly untraditional twist) and her Bridesmaids in their stunning black and red pin up halter style dresses. I am also loving their car, their polka dot themed reception and of course that fabulous cake...my favourite layer has got to be the 'tattoo design' layer...just hottness!

The weekends are slow internet days...it's almost like everybodyhas better things to do than spend their days off looking at pretty things online! Unfortunately for me I don't get the weekends off so still spend lonely hours online scouring the web for some weddingy gorgeousness to share with you all. Just check out what I found today - this magical image is to die for right?

Finalists to be announced on Tuesday when you can then all vote for who you think deserves this fabulous prize. Woop woop!

Playing Dress Up

Now I'm not normally one for cutie children, but seriously how adorable are these kids?! Their expressions are absolutely priceless.

Jailhouse Rock

Jana & Gerry's engagements kicked it. They had them in Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia... What makes us a rock 'n' roll couple? Well, we met backstage. Gerry has played in local Philly bands for years and we were introduced by his cousin. Being an attorney, I've been known to get into a shouting match (or two) with a record label over royalties for my man. Besides that, we're having one of Philly's best rock DJs do our wedding and we're having it at the Mutter Museum - because if you can't have a wedding onstage, medical oddities are a close second.

Thrifty Gorgeous

Kat

Faith & Joe didn't have much time to plan their wedding, especially as they live in Portland but chose to have the event in California as lots of their friends and family lived here. They also decided to do the whole thing in a super thrifty way. This however, led them to have a truly unique, personal DIY wedding. Friends and family also helped them out wherever they could with her Mum making the cake, the dried flowers for the bouquets, boutonnieres and decorations being donated and Faith getting her gorgeous dress from a thrift store, adding the tulle and brown sash herself and even making her own veil. This has got to be one of the sweetest and most stylish DIY weddings I've ever had the pleasure of sharing with you all. Thanks to photographer Shannon Moore for sharing!

The Power Of Love

Kat

July 3, 2009

When this video landed in my inbox I knew from the first second of watching it that I'd feature it. Why? The Power Of Love baby! The hubby as I walked back up the aisle to this tune on our wedding day so not only did it bring all those lovely weddingyfeelings back for me, but it's just a damn good song. We chose it for our own wedding as my favourite film of all time is Back to The Future, and I think Courtney & David's wedding has this same feel of retro gorgeousness. Isn't her dress just divine? be sure to watch the video to the end or the dramatic and surprising finale...what luck to catch that on film. Thanks to Katherine of Eagle Eye Photography for sharing.

The Sci-Fi Geek & The Blue Ballerina Shoes

Kat

July 3, 2009

Yep, this is what I love about the weddings I feature - the awesome uniqueness. Sometimes I find it hard not to share the same picture perfect weddings I see popping up all over blog-land and I even have to give myself a little talking to sometimes and tell myself you love little old Rock n Roll Bride for how different the wedding's that I feature are... right? Now Megan & Bob's wedding's pretty prettiness goes without saying, but I'm loving that the Groom dressed as Doctor Who and the Bride wore her something blue on her toes. Cute and original..and that bloody rocks. Kudos to photographer Ashley for sharing the geek chic love

Sweet As Cherry Pie

Kat

July 3, 2009

This sugary sweet engagement session is full of fun and frolics and I have been dying to get these up all day. Bridget and Dan chose Balboa Island for their shoot as they will be getting married there in September at her grandparents house. The candy bouquet was quickly put together by the photographer, Crissy after she saw them in cute little bunches at a local shop, and the stick on moustaches were bought on Etsy. Thanks to Crissy for sharing these sweet as cherry pie shots with me!

Revealed

Anyone remember what my favourite ever wedding dress was? Well to refresh your memory (or maybe introduce you for the first time) it was this amazing multi-coloured, multi-layered crazy gorgeous 'Lustful' dress...and I just found out it was custom made by Stephanie James Couture. I just had to share this vital piece on information with you all as I have had so many emails ever since I posted that dress asking who made it..and now you know. I also started browsing Stephanie's blog and wowzer has this girl made some crazy-gorgeous dresses or what? Check out this 'Audrey' dress as worn by Tiffany on her wedding day.

Wowzer...this girl rocks her Stephanie James Couture dress! More Polka-dotty cuteness for you all!

Spectacular Glamour

Kat

July 2, 2009

Glamour. Pure unadulterated glamour. From the gorgeous Bride and her girls all in their stunning custom made hairpieces from Heather Mandin to the Groom and his boys arriving at Grouse Mountain (the Peak of Vancouver) in a helicopter, the whole day just screams magnificence! It goes without saying that the locations is spectacular, but it's the ridiculous fun they look like they had that does it for me. Thank you to photographer Gracci for sharing the love with Rock n Roll Bride.

The Language Of Love

Kat

July 2, 2009

Rock n Roll Bride seems to be going all continental today, Ukrainian photographer Nikolay Kucan is up next. Due to the whole language barrier thing I'm afraid I don't know anything about this wedding, but when Nikolay sent me an email with just a link to these images I still felt them worthy of a post. I love her cute short/long dress, the picturesque town location (is it just me or does it almost look like a movie set?!) the fairytale feel of the photographs in the woods and the Bride rocking out with buskers on the street. They look like they had an absolute blast... I only wish I could share more with you.

From Russia With Love

What about this sexy couple then? an old Hollywood, film noir style mixed with that unique Russian flair... gorgeous

A Surreal Fairytale

Kat

July 2, 2009

Russian Photographer Catherine Alechinsky has send me a selection of her wonderfully surreal, fairytale-like images. These remind me of the sort of images you'd find illustrating a fantasy story...I'm going start with this cute couple...I love her hairband, she reminds me of Alice in Wonderland or something. Thanks to Catherine for sending me these and to reader Chanelle for drawing my attention to her work.

Las Vagas Showdown

Kat

July 1, 2009

Have you been eagerly sitting by your computer waiting for the next installment of Teneisha & Chris' crazy-gorgeous wedding extravaganza? I certainly have..every 5 minutes I've been checking my email to see if the rest of the photographs have been sent to me...sad? yes, yes I am. Now if you thought their engagement shoot was to die for then you ain't seen nothing yet! I'm actually going to stop gabbing on about it and hand straight over to the couple who have described their wedding and their idea of what makes a rock n roll wedding absolutely perfectly... The objective for our wedding, besides getting married, was about two things. The first was a goal that every single person have a completely kick ass time, including ourselves, and the second being that we would do things our way, no questions asked. We solved the "having fun" issue pretty easily by getting married on a Saturday evening, in Las Vegas; with a premium open bar and an excellent ipod play list. We served sushi and had chocolate covered strawberries instead of cake at our reception and had an open invitation after-party with a bathtub full of beer and debauchery that lasted until 5am. We also encouraged people to get creative with the dress code, which produced a very colorful crowd. I think that our Bride and Groom outfits helped to set the right mood as well. I wore a vintage inspired, Sherri Hill polka dotted blue/gold/silver dress with all bright red accessories that I either made myself or bought from independent artists on etsy.com. I had the dress shortened from ballroom to tea length, which everyone tried to talk me out of and I'm so glad I didn't listen! The groom wore crazy blue pants, suspenders, a fedora and an awesome bow tie that matched my dress perfectly. You love this couple right? Yeah me too. Again, I can't thank Teneisha & Chris' and their wonderful photographer Holly Jones enough for sharing this amazing wedding with me!

Artistic

This fun, quirky, laid back engagement session perfectly reflects the couple in it. With a pair of artists as subjects - Kelsey, an art historian & Stephan, a painter - what other sort of engagement session would you expect than one like this? An artistic, calm and serene vision that's what these are. I like them an awful lot. Photographer Emily Garrick seriously rocked this session - thanks so much for sharing!

One Damn Cool Wedding

Kat

July 1, 2009

That is the only way I can describe this wedding. I am swooning as I type away. Jenny & Johnny are way too stylish and way too cool, their hair ROCKS (I wish I had the balls for a cut like Jenny's - mohawks are hot!) and of course their tattoos look awesome (Jenny is a hairdresser and Johnny is a tattoo artist, can you tell!?) In fact I don't think their is anything I don't like about this wedding - Jenny's vintage dress = gorgeous, the flower girl = cute (dress from etsy) the ring ninja (oh yes, no ring bearers here) = beyond wicked. One of my favourite details had got to be their unique guest 'book', an original piece art work designed by Johnny of the two of them, that each guest signed. The couple tied the knot in Rosa Parks Circle in downtown Grand Rapids. There had never been a wedding held here before as it is usually used for concerts and festivals in the summer and as an ice rink in winter. For more, be sure to check out photographer Jill's blog and the couple's slideshow eeek! Thank you so much to Jill for sending me these, you have made my month!
