Romantic Wedding Dresses - for the modern day glamorous bride
September 19, 2011
by Thea Hargrove
Inspired by romance and touches of red, these luxuriously soft and feminine wedding dresses have made a strong comeback, mixing rich textures with elegant silhouettes for modern day glamour. To create this look and feeling, our talented creative director, Cathryn VanBreene selected wedding gowns that blend old-school glamour with modern appeal. Set stylist and wedding floral designer, Krista Jon fused whimsical red wedding props and wedding rentals for each set from Archive Vintage Rentals. This romantic shoot was photographed by Sean Armenta at the acclaimed wedding location, seven-degrees. Pulling it all together was hair stylist Lucie Doughty and makeup artist Dana Delaney.
