Romantic Bride

Have you been waiting all your life for your knight in shining armor to arrive on the white horse to sweep you off your feet? Have you finally found your Prince Charming? Have you daydreamed about your wedding day and all the details since you were a little girl? Do you want your day to be dreamy and soft? While you want your day to be silently beautiful, you still would love to have the grand entrance down an aisle of rose petals. You are The Romantic Bride.

Venue Choice

Anything with old-world charm will work wonders for your overall look. Think of a medieval castle, arbortorium or some sort of historical landmark.  Tons of candlelight really helps create that romantic loving vibe. Add candles to your centerpieces, guestbook table and anywhere else your heart desires!  The natural beauty of your location should really shine through and your personal touches will really make an impression.

Attire

Imagine a lace pattern over a heavy silk dress that has trumpet sleeves with a long train, or a custom-made dress with embroidery. Dark or light ivory would be simply beautiful. A fingertip veil with matching detailing sets the tone when your guests first see you walk down the aisle. An ornate pearl choker would help complete the look.

Flowers

Your flowers should be soft and feminine, just like you. The color inspirations should follow your wedding colors, but with a soft look--think pale pinks, creams and robin egg blue. Tulips, roses and freesia should definitely be used.  The centerpieces again should be complimentary of the overall romantic ambiance. Envision centerpieces with cascading flowers and greenery with pearls hiding the stems in the vase.

Your Bouquet

By using similar flowers as the rest of your wedding, you will create a designer look. However this is the perfect place to toss in some personality. Include some stephanotis with pearls, and be sure that your bouquet is cascading down to help soften your look.

Wedding Cake

Your cake can really go the traditional route or be a little more modern with the design. For the updated look, you can have your cake baker make a similar pattern to your wedding dress by including the same lace look with pearls and butter cream frosting. Intertwining your initials with your husband-to-be is very romantic with a modern spin. A traditional yet delicate bride and groom cake topper would be perfect!

Favors

Candles make a great favor for the romantic in everyone. A key to their heart bottle stopper, glass coasters with the word love on them and maybe some heart shaped measuring spoons all express romance, warmth and most of all love.
