** Real Wedding ** A Classic Ivory Wedding

It has been a long time since I featured a wedding complete with a first look shoot; candid shots of the moment the bride and groom first lay eyes on each other ~ but before the ceremony, a private moment alone (with their photographer). But the first look in today’s wedding really captivated me. I haven’t selected lots of images from it, but you can see the pure joy on the bride and groom’s faces as they embrace for the last time before they become man and wife. Romantic or what?

Of course, that is not all that this chic ivory wedding has to offer – there are also classic and stylish details in a fabulously brilliant setting. Ladies and gentleman, I give you Megan and Benny’s big day, with a little commentary from Megan herself:

“The whole night passed by in a wonderful blur, spent mingling with family and dancing with our amazing friends. It was a perfect and enchanting evening and thanks to Jason Groupp, we get to relive our wedding whenever we want.”

Photography is by Jason Groupp photography.

“Hands down, the best photo of the night is a black and white close-up of the two of us with the 59th Street Bridge in the background. It is so romantic, unique and artistic and we are absolutely in love with it.”

~~~ If you are going for a classic ivory colour scheme big details help the decor to stand out, like large floral blooms on the table ~~~

~~~ Make sure you take the time out of your day for the couples shots, it’s not about taking you away from the party but about you spending quality time with your new husband ~~~

An explanation of my recent absence on the blog…

Some of you may have been wondering why I disappeared from the blog for so long. Hopefully my posts on Aphrodite’s World and Any Other Woman today will go some way to explaining xx

Aphrodite's World, lifestyle blog, she who leaves a trail of glitter is never forgotten

** Real Wedding ** Uber Chic and Uber Cool

I think I would probably goe as far as to say that everything about today’s wedding is cool. The location, the bride and groom’s style, the decor. But that isn’t all, it also looks like amazing fun, the sort of wedding that you would love to be a part of.

Brooke and Stefan were married at a beautiful state park in South Dakota. Michael Liedtke was the photographer that captured the day…

“This couple had the best mix of decorations combining a little bit of home-made with a natural collective look, and all of it was designed by the bride. It was my favorite wedding of my season by far, and the couple was more than easy to work with as well.”

~~~ Don’t be afraid to experiment with your bridal style, I love Brooke’s funky hairpiece, it really sets of the whole style of the day ~~~

~~~ I keep harping on about it, but sparkly lights can brighten up any venue, so why not go mad with them ~~~
