MORE As:
The Classic Bride. You have a style and beauty that is absolutely timeless, so it makes sense that your wedding would reflect that same style. Take a cue from classic celebrity brides and focus on traditional details that will stand the test of time. An all-white bouquet featuring peonies, gardenias, and stephanotis in your bouquet (a’la Nicole Kidman) is a timeless choice, as is incorporating antique lace into your wedding ensemble (per Grace Kelly). Other traditional elements you can nick from Nicole Kidman and Grace Kelly include reciting traditional vows, marrying in a church, and wearing a long, classic veil.
MORE Bs:
The Rebel Bride. Although you may respect the traditional, you love to put your own twist on things. Gwen Stefani is the perfect example of The Rebel Bride, from the pink incorporated into her John Galliano gown, to the collar of flowers around her dog Winston's neck (yes, he was part of the ceremony). Speaking of pink, the singer Pink pulled off a beautiful wedding with a classic-meets-rock-and-roll look. The bride wore a black sash in her curly updo that matched the sash on her formal gown – and she and her groom were both barefoot on the sand for their ceremony in Costa Rica. Both brides had destination weddings and incorporated their own style into very formal affairs, elements that we highly recommend you consider as a Rebel Bride.
MORE Cs:
The Retro Bride. You favor the ultra-glam look inspired by past eras -- a look that's not quite timeless, but utterly unforgettable. Christina Aguilera is the ultimate example of The Retro Bride, with her platinum, finger-waved hair and vivid red lips -- a bold and beautiful bridal style that can be toned up or down for your own wedding. Christina’s stark white Christian Lacroix gown was set off by a single red rose and string of rosary beads that she carried in lieu of a bouquet, and her gorgeous updo was accented by jeweled hairclips (very 1930s). To expand upon a retro style, incorporate music from a bygone era, replace floral centerpieces with ornate candelabras, and consider a crisp black-and-white color scheme.
MORE Ds:
The Natural Bride. Vibrant and full of life, you appreciate the natural beauty of the outdoors -- and prefer a natural look for yourself. Top models Cindy Crawford and Heidi Klum epitomized the healthy, girl-next-door look on their respective wedding days, with tousled hair and polished, understated makeup. Heidi wore an ivory, Chantilly-lace gown with an empire waist by Vera Wang – a simple silhouette that will allow you to move freely and not feel constricted. A wedding on the beach or at a national park is the perfect scenario for The Natural Bride -- both have breathtaking views created by nature, and don't require much in way of man-made decoration. Keep the look of your wedding simple and clean, and remember less is more, and you'll design a day that's beautiful... from the ground up.
MORE Es:
The Red Carpet Bride. You relish attention and living life in the spotlight, and brides such as Eva Longoria and Catherine Zeta Jones share your love for the red carpet. Professional hair and makeup artists are a must to make you ready for your close ups, and no style detail should be overlooked. For gown inspiration, look to Eva’s couture Angel Sanchez mermaid gown, with silk gazar metallic embroidery, a scoop back, and a long train – and that was just her first dress. Consider a separate gown for the reception for maximum star-power, and make sure care is taken to include coordinating jewelry that will provide proper sparkle. The Red Carpet Bride loves dramatic details, from a towering wedding cake (Catherine’s was four feet tall), to fireworks (Eva’s reception at a castle in France featured a stunning display), so don’t be shy about going all out for your Big Day. Make sure you hire an excellent professional photographer to capture all of the excitement – after all, what’s a red carpet event without fantastic photos to remember it by?
