I Saw a Shooting Star on my Wedding Night

Kat

October 15, 2009

Do you remember Anna & Ryan's Old Fashioned Love Affair wedding? Well, Mysi & Craig, the photographers of that soiree sent me their very own wedding - they got hitched a few weeks after! Mysi & Craig got married at a lodge in the middle of nowhere, near her parent's house in Illinois. They made a lot of the details - throwing themselves wholeheartedly into the DIY! They created their own programs to look like newspapers and got their invites printed onto handkerchiefs, the design of which was by the amazing etsy artist Heather Jenny.

Make it Perfect

Isn't this just one gorgeous couple? They seriously should be models methinks! Photographer Amelia travel to Utah to shoot this 'engagement' (the couple are actually already married, but hey why has a fact like that gotta stop you?!) I really do love props like the old books and the suitcases. They can make or break a shoot and these have certainly made it perfect. Thanks to the delightful Amelia for sending these in. Mwah!

Latin Lovers

Kat

October 9, 2009

Will & Aine had a Latin/ rock n roll wedding with gorgeous vintage touches in Santa Cruz. The term 'vintage' is thrown around a lot when it comes to weddings but looking at Aine's stunning...and I mean stunning...dress handmade by a friend and matching hairpiece, what other world could I use? The lace, the cameo, the cut...it's swoonworthy stuff! Will is a musician and plays in a Samba band so the day had a very Latin feel - from the bright colours (I adore orange and pink together!), the details and the music - it was a real eclectic mix of styles but it worked perfectly. Thanks so much to Gabrielle for sending me the exclusive first look at this stunning wedding. If you need more then go check out her blog and the slideshow! Credit: Gabrielle Fox Photography

Green – The New Red?

Kat

October 5, 2009

I think this year green may be the new colour de jour for rock n roll brides. I have been sent a couple of gorgeous green girlies recently...do I see a new trend emerging? You will probably remember Amy from her stunning bridals that I shared recently. Well photographer Brandi was nice enough to send me the full wedding to report. I am crazy about the florals (I'll probably never tire of peacock feather bouquets!), the bridesmaid's and groomsmen's awesome purple combos which looks fab against Amy... and still of course, her shoes! Enjoy my lovelies...and special thanks to Brandi for sending these to me. I will be sharing some more green dress brides soon! Credit: Brandi Thompson Photography

Tyson & Courtney are a quirky and creative couple and so what else would be perfect for their wedding than what full of quirks and creating! The event took place at the house and yards of The Dana Powers House in Nipomo, where the couple made the day their own with all the personal touches. Thanks to the lovely Beth for sharing these with me and yes I am waiting to hear who made the dress right now! Fret not... Credit: Bath Armsheimer Photography

A Geeky, Offbeat, Tea Party, Country Wedding!

Kat

September 28, 2009

Right now, well what can I say that could possibly live up to these? The very lovely Rosalie of the Tea and Whimsy blog booked my buddy David McNeil for her wedding to James last month. She has gone over all the details, budget saving tricks (they only spent about £4000 on the whole thing!) and DIY gems on her site, but I'm just here to share the swoonfest that is these photographs...oh and to draw your attention to her freakin' awesome bouquet! Yes those are real (dyed) roses!

Red, White & Sparkle

Kat

September 26, 2009

Trsiha & John got married at Point Vicente Interpretive Center in Rancho Palos Verdes which is actually old marine land. Trisha told me all about it: I think that we took the traditional/ all American black, red, and white wedding and added some wild flare and edgy fun! I wanted something wild yet simple and romantic all at the same time! My dress was by Bonny. My bridesmaid dresses were by Watters & Watters. The guys tux's were from Mens Warehouse and my flowergirl wore a tutu was from chasing fireflies and adorable red, sparkly converse trainers! Thanks to Trisha and John for sharing their wedding day with us! Credit: Jason Q Tran

Perfectly Matched

September 25, 2009

Katherine & Ethan's wedding is breathtaking. The location, the venue, the details (Katherine co-ordinated her bridesmaid's with individual dresses from Anthropologie and matched the colours with their bouquets) the woodland and rock portraits. Oh and Jethro the dog...he must have been the star of the show! Thanks to Emily for sending these to me...wonderful!

Pin Up’s, Croquet & Converse

Kat

September 24, 2009

Oh how I adore Sloan Photographers. I really really do. I say that a lot and about a lot of people but come on...these are way too amazing for words! As soon as I saw Tiphany & Jamie's wedding I was right on to getting these bad boys featured on Rock n Roll Bride. Lucky for me (and you!) the guys were ever so happy to oblige and here we have it. What I love the most is that the bride in in yellow Converse! No uncomfortable shoes for her. If this isn't rock n roll then quite frankly I don't know what is. ps Word on the street is that Matt & Angie have just shot an engagement shoot with a fuschia haired bride. Eeek I can't wait to see those! Thanks guys for sharing these. You are the best! Credit: Sloan Photographers

Thursday Treats – 24th Sept 2009

Kat

September 24, 2009

As you may have noticed I've tweeked the layout of the posts slightly this week. Now, you'll just get one preview image for each article and if you want to see the rest you just need to click 'read the the rest of this entry'. The idea behind it is to not only make the front page look a lot cleaner, but it means the pages will load a lot faster. My hubby/web designer was trying to make me cut down on how many images I posted to compensate for the slow page load time - now that wasn't gonna happen was it!? Apart from that don't forget that the awesome TokyoMade contest is still open. You have until tomorrow to tell me which right if your favourite and why. Come on, you know you want it! That's all I really have to report around Rock n Roll Bride HQ right now..let's see what the rest of blog land has been up to this week shall we?

Bow Tied

Kat

September 21, 2009

I have been hoping to post this wedding for what feels like forever and fiiiinally I am able to share the gorgeousness that is these images taken at Bowden Johnson House Thomson, Ga. Devan's dress was by Mori Lee and her veil was handmade and bought from Etsy....but my favourite bit? Well Tripp and the dog in their bow ties of course! A huge thanks to Ellie for working with me on this feature! Be sure to check out her blog for the couple's equally wicked engagements!

Childhood Sweethearts

I have been looking forward to seeing Hannah & Alex's wedding ever since I saw their school yard engagements and the bridal shoot to be used for their stag/hen/bachelor/ette parties invites. I first spoke to Hannah about 6 months ago when she forwarded me some of the work of her sister and photographer, Kelty and I have been nuts about it every since. I have been lucky enough to become good online friends with Kelty so I was over the moon when she sent me a sneak peek of the wedding photographs after the day.Credit: Steep Street Photography

Vintage Tea Party

Kat

September 15, 2009

After the immense Blog Land popularity (in fact bordering on obsession!) of Ben Blood's last wedding (the gorgeous treehouse affair) I was over the moon this morning when Ben sent me his newest triumph for an exclusive an first blog on Rock n Roll Bride! Karley & Scott had a beautiful vintage tea party style wedding complete with genuine vintage finds, a vintage style gown and beautiful yellow shoes. I'm sure you'll Ben gets pretty much exclusively amazing clients! A huge rock n roll thank you to the gorgeous Ben for sharing his phemononal work with us (ott? moi?!) Credit: Ben Blood Photography

Love, Love Me Do…

September 14, 2009

Courtney & Justin had an eco friendly wedding at The Old Mill in Rose Valley, PA. We were amazed with the subtle natural aesthetic and the charming vintage vibe. It is a historic mill that sits in a rhododendron-lined woodland valley right alongside Ridley Creek the couple explained. For the first 3 months of wedding planning, I scoured the internet looking to purchase for anything wedding related – used dresses, used décor, you name it! I hit the jackpot when a bride from Philadelphia posted an ad on Craigslist selling all the décor used in her “Rustic Vintage” wedding. I bought all of her wedding decorations, including: • Vintage mason jars, antique medicine bottles, and painted metal charger plates used for the table centerpieces. • Green and brown ribbon boards (a DIY project) which were used to hold the place cards • Metal lanterns which our florist used to create an amazing display of artistic genius (see Flowers, below) • Hand crafted table numbers made from framed wooden numbers on a fabric backing I loved the glass and metal and DIY spirit of the décor – it fit our style perfectly, it fit our color scheme perfectly, and it was an eco-friendly reuse of someone else’s wedding items! In fact, we are planning to sell the décor items so that another eco-conscious bride can reuse it all for her own wedding. It’s exciting to think that those items will create happiness for another bride! Courtney's dress was from Adele Wechsler’s line of eco-friendly dresses. Initially she discovered she couldn't afford her perfect dress but lucky for her at Philadelphia's UnBridaled Expo Adele was giving away a gift certificate for one of her dresses and guess who won!? Clearly it was meant to be. The succulents they used were bought from a local garden centre and were put together with moss and flowers collected from various friend's gardens to give a unique and natural look. For all the rest of their eco details, be sure to check outLove Me Do's Blog, (thank you to Amanda & Carina for sharing as usual!) but for now...

Tattooed Lovelies Get Wed

Kat

September 11, 2009

Oh..just wow. As soon as I laid eyes on Cameron & Mike I knew I had to feature them on Rock n Roll Bride. Can you blame me? Cameron looked just like a movie star and Mike looks so in love it can't help but make me smile! Mike, a tattoo artist in Florida even proposed to Cameron by tattooing 'Will You Marry Me?' on his chest? Freakin' awesome or what?! That's some serious commitment - he must have been pretty sure she would say yes

Krista & Uryah had a 1920s style wedding in Snohomish, WA. As a professional seamstress, Krista planned and DIY'd the majority of wedding herself. I have a whole lot of love for this set - her shoes, her back lace umbrella, the cigarette holders - classy and wonderful! Thanks to Claire for sending me these. Mwah!

There is just something about Ashley & Tyson that I can't get enough of. Ever since I received these images from photographers J+C Photography I haven't been able to keep my eyes off them. The couple chose cars to be the main feature of their shoot. They started with a Ford Fairline but when the classic Chevy pickup pulled in they switched vehicles immediately!
