A Twilight Wedding Dress

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

“New Moon,” the latest Twilight movie, hits theaters at midnight tonight, and we know plenty of Wedding Paper Divas staffers who are flocking to the theaters to drool over their favorite vampires and werewolves!

I haven’t read the Twilight series, but I do know that dark vintage romance is going to be a hot trend for 2010 weddings, so I love looking at photos of the characters’ smoky, sultry vampire style. Any Twilight-loving brides-to-be are sure to adore this spread from InStyle that features top designers’ sketches for Bella’s wedding dress in an upcoming film.

Which is your favorite Twilight wedding dress?

Flashback to Film: The Perks of Film Photography

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Digital cameras might be all the rage, but that doesn’t mean film is dead just yet. There are a ton of artistic photographers who are dedicated to giving film a comeback, and the results of their work are truly dazzling.

Many of you may have noticed how Dan & Julie’s Real Wedding was full of unique photos, bright colors and interesting shots—that’s right! It was all shot on high quality film, printed and then scanned in to create digital prints.

You Look Nice Today Photography is a big proponent of film photos. I know it might be scary not to have the benefit of instant digital feedback, but it might be worth a try if you want truly unique photos with a fresh, artistic flair. Just look at how gorgeous some of these shots from You Look Nice Today came out:

Peacock Wedding Inspiration

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

I came across this unique peacock wedding cake on San Francisco Style Unveiled, and it got me thinking about how gorgeous peacock feathers are and how lovely they can be as wedding inspiration.

Whether you use actual feathers as centerpieces or cake decor, or you simply borrow the bold colors of the peacock for your celebration, I love the idea of incorporating this elegant theme into your wedding.
