Whether you're wearing crocheted shorties or long, opera length beauties —gloves are glam and can really pull together your bridal look. If you're getting married this time of year when the chill is on, long gloves help warm up hands and arms. You can go with the classic white and ivory or jazz up your look with any length, color, texture, even pattern. Just like some brides are showing some pizazz wearing different color shoes with their gown, glove color is an option you have as well. Experiment, then go right ahead and be as adventuresome as you want!

Check out all these little DIY details! Mix it up with some great vintage like an antique Model A and satin bias gown--- it's the closest thing to time travel. Barrie Anne Photography captured Rebecca and Joon's day so beautifully. Said Barrie about shooting the couple, "They are two of the most down to earth people I've ever met; their love for not only each other, but their family, friends, and just being there to celebrate their love was beautiful.
There were so many creative and cute details from the DIY favors and photo booth, the table place cards, guestbook, and an old school car that we got to take some really fun photos with!
When it came time for the cake cutting, in this case the cupcake cutting, or 'smash', as it turned out to be, it was surely a memorable one; I've never seen more cuteness, and I am still craving those delicious cupcakes!
Congratulations to such a fabulous and all deserving couple, Rebecca & Joon!"

The elegance of gold is just perfect for a wedding celebration--especially for all of you brides who love glam and glitz. We're seeing small touches of it in accents as well as entire dresses amped up in sparkle. Glittering gold is just one of the trends for Fall 2014 I'll be talking about over on One Wed Blog today.

I've posted extensively and in great detail on bustle basics in the past: The difference between over and under bustling, built in versus a detachable train, what fabrics work best--that sort of thing. Today I want to say a few words on looking at the bustle as an art from. If you look at the back of your dress (with a train that eventually bustles) think of it as a blank canvas to which you can add trim, bows, florals, etc. Once shaped, it becomes a miracle of soft sculpture. Bustles are generally located in the back of a gown but not always. Below you'll find a handful of images showing some gorgeous and one off techniques in the fine art of bustling.
