Details: The Dress

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

Who doesn’t love seeing pretty wedding dresses hanging up ready to be put on by the excited bride?

I love this vintage looking dress, its so different and cool.

I love this photo! It really highlights the dress’ simple elegance.

How cool is it to have a photo of your wedding dress in the church were you got married?

A shot of the wedding dress in nature is unexpected, but oh so pretty.

One of my favorite shots within this theme are these photos by Whitebox Weddings. I love that they shot the bride’s undergarments and the groom’s suit on a clothesline.

The conclusion, from Wendy our guest blogger:

Just then, Valentina called and was running late, so Giuseppe thought for a second and then motioned for us to follow him.  We walked through a door, and were suddenly amidst many beautiful rolls of fabric, and glamorous, half-sewn dresses–his workshop!  He pinned my thank-you card to the bulletin board by his desk, showed me his original sketches and pointed to the works-in-progress.  Then, as if something caught his attention, he sat down at his computer and began printing something.  He snatched the paper out of the printer and almost handed it to me, but then he took it back, grasp ed a fat pen, and began to draw.  What he had printed was a copy of his original sketch for my dress, and what he handed to me was a real drawing of my own dress, with the changes he had made to it.  I was shaking and starting to cry and accidently knocked over some rolls of fabric as I leaned over to kiss his cheek in thanks.
