Top: ( A fave) I love the detailed long sheer sleeves. The detailing is breath taking. Bottom (A fave) I am crazy about this one because of the use of fabric. It’s beautiful, with a touch of youthful fun and charm. This one is for the bride that loves patterns and loves to have fun.

TLFALL143 TLFALL142 TLFALL147

Top (A Fave)  The pattern on this gown and the big trim hemline at the bottom of the dress is just irresistible . This dress is most definitely a step away from your traditional gown but in all the right ways. Bottom (A Fave) Long cape like sleeves with a touch of vintage with this gown is a must for me.

TLFALL141 TLFALL146 TLFALL144

Top (Fave) By far this has to be my most fave by far. It’s flirty, fun, and completely beautiful. This dress is for the girl that doesn’t mind being different and loves having fun. Don’t even get me started on the texture!

Jenny Packham Bridal Collection 2014

As promised here is Jenny Packham’s 2014 bridal collection. Sorry I have been swapped with getting use to my son’s new school schedule and my eyewear design job. Oh how I dream of the day I can just work on only bridal and fashion and share with you all my findings and designs. One day soon I know it! However, until then I’m back and you have my undivided attention. And trust me I have a lot to share with you which I know you will be excited about.

I can never seem to get enough of Jenny Packham’s bridal gowns. They are truly breathtaking and I’m blown away by every collection. My absolute favorites from her collection. Since it is way to hard to pick just one, are the images that are the larger ones. I’m like a little girl in a candy store there are too many choices for me to choose just one. So, instead of choosing one I will take a few. Or in this chase I will choose a few bridal gowns that are my favorites.

Tell me which ones are your favorites from this collection. I would love to know!! Thanks for stopping by and letting me share my picks with you.

What Wedding Style Is Yours ?

What is your bridal / wedding style ? Have you ever wondered this very question. Thanks to one love photography you can now find out, amazing yes I know!!

All you have to do is visit their website and answer a few test questions. Your email is required ladies. This is  simply so, you can be emailed your results in case you need it for the future. There is one question about what type of drink do you prefer. And since I don’t drink  (alcohol) I just made a guess because you cannot proceed without it. I picked something that sounded pretty  haha.

Once your results are in and you are given a description of your style. You can then browse their beautiful galleries that are similar to your style. I absolutely loved this idea and their website even more. I mean who isn’t always looking for inspiration for their big day ?

I already took the test I just could not resist. I also needed to check it out for you ladies, it was just to tempting. My results were Rustic Romance . However, I really think I’m a mix of Rustic Romance and Sweet Boho (I tend to be a little free spirited okay maybe a lot haha). There’s nothing wrong with having a style that is a mix of few but that’s just my opinion haha. As long as you can make it work and make it yours then everything else is icing on the cake.

You will probably notice that a lot of weddings they show you in their galleries. That many brides have a mix of style. So, if you find this to be you don’t worry your not alone.

One last note before I go. I went ahead and put together a few quick little inspiration boards based on their style categories. I put together 3 for now and will share with you the other 3 later. So enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

MOD

The Miss Mod is for the girl who is all about vintage, loves geometric shapes, bright colors and is a little mix of modern. She isn’t afraid to be bold and show people what her personality is all about. Above all she loves to have fun. I love this board because of mixture of shapes, the clean lines and the cheery bright colors.

BOHO
Boho Sweet is the free spirited girl (She has a inner hippie in her). She loves nature, is laid back and goes with the wind. She just wants to enjoy herself at her wedding and wants the same for her guest. Her style incorporates the beauty in nature with flowers, butterflies, and birds while mixing a hint of vintage to her wedding style.

RUSTICROMANCE
Rustic Romance is for the girl who loves the nature and the beauty found outdoors. She is also the girl that wants the Fairy-Tale wedding. Her style is very romantic, mixed with vintage, hints of sparkle, flowers, and laces. Her guests will no doubt feel the love and feel like they stepped into a romantic fairytale too.

Winter & Fall Floral Crowns

Do you go crazy for flower crowns? It was one of my favorite accessories for brides (and everyone, to be honest) this summer, due to their natural beauty. Their allure is so obvious for bridal wear–they’re reminiscent of a fairytale scene.

So, I thought to myself: Why does the fairytale need to end with the Summer months? Why can’t we enjoy the fantastic beauty of a crown, even long into winter?

Over the next 3-4 months, Fall and Winter bring a whole new variety of plants and flowers that are really fun to include. Pine trees immediately come to mind, with their deep greens colors, crisp freshness, and fragrant needles and cones. And think of all those deep red berries and flowers that you only see this time of year: they offer great opportunities for incorporating the season’s magic, and are really too gorgeous to pass up.

Of course, I found some truly beautiful Fall and Wintry crowns that create that same magical Summer feel, but use Autumnal flowers, berries, and plants. Enjoy these elegant and cool seasonal-inspired accessories. They are sure to make you swoon even more than the ones you saw during the heat of Summer!

Enjoy my picks, and thanks for stopping by!
