Just got the word on the new BHLDN gowns and I am in awe. Spring is such an inspiration for beautiful pieces and the designers they brought in for the new line are amazing. Here are my favorites.

I love this little series, Portrait of a Gown, that BHLDN posted today. The photography is beautiful and the neutral tones are serene and romantic. I had to share my favorite shots.

There are a lot of different themes for a wedding. Most of the time natural elements are a part of the decor. Whether you want a romantic feel or more fun, flowers and plants usually play a big part in the overall concept. Although its always nice to be surrounded by lush flowers, I prefer to have a more Earthly feel to my special day. Plus, if you are planning an eco-friendly event, picking flowers that will eventually wilt and die is far from that concept.
So for all you brides out there that truly want an organic themed wedding, here are some great inspirations that might help you. Free, alive, wild and fresh is what I am going for here. Picture being in a garden full of herbs, wild weeds and plants galore. That is where I want to be. If you want a little of both, that is cool too.

I had the honor of photographing my friend Jen and her now husband Reinder’s wedding ceremony last Thursday at City Hall in NYC and I am so happy I joined them. They are such a beautiful couple and are so in love. It makes me happy to know they have found each other.
He wore a blue velvet jacket with blue pants and she looked gorgeous in a silvery blue satin dress. The spring inspired bouquet was handmade by Jen herself and filled with little pink roses and purple lavender goodies. The “love” plaque they added was a nice touch as well.
Although a little nervous, both Jen and Reinder were excited and couldn’t wait to say their vows. What a beautiful moment it was to see them finally kiss as husband and wife. It was an honor to be a part of it all.
Here are some of my favorites from the shoot. Hope you like them as much as I do!
