Bridal shoots are some of the most fun to work on because it’s like fulfilling a childhood fantasy of planning a dream wedding—an expensive one too—and there’s no commitment to it!
I’m not one usually for hot pink, but when the editor, Courtney mailed me a bunch of Pantone swatches that we were working with, I was sold. I wished I incorporated more color into my wardrobe on my own special day after seeing all of the fun combos that looked great with the modern gowns.
I’m also not typically a modern gown gal or into veils, but I was loving some of the fresh looks like the Monique Lhuillier and Angel Sanchez gowns we featured above, along with the crisp horsehair veil.
Of course, the jewelry was some of my favorite wardrobe items to play with—except for the $100k sapphire ring that I had to have someone watch at all times!
STYLIST TIP: Have a bit of fun with jewelry too and think outside the box. I styled a gorgeous floral necklace on the cover as a hair piece that our talented hair stylist pinned to a modern-retro up-do. I also used a beaded necklace with ribbon as a belt on the grey Vera Wang White bridesmaid dress.
