first look photo ideas

elise and kira got ready for their ceremony with their closest friends and family. taking advantage of the suite’s oversized mirror and ample natural light, they took getting ready photos such as zipping the back of their gowns and completing their bridal looks with jewelry. before the ceremony, elise and kira opted for a private first look. standing back to back and holding hands, they turned around to admire each other and their wedding dress for the first time. the lace embroidery on their wedding dresses perfectly complemented one another’s gown, creating a unified bridal style that was still unique to their personal wedding vision!

rue de seine wedding dresses

when deciding where to go wedding dress shopping in denver, colorado, both elise and kira knew they needed to visit a&bé denver bridal shop. a&bé denver’s rue de seine bridal collection is unmatched, with a wide selection of rue de seine styles ranging from adventurous lace wedding dresses to sleek sheath bridal gowns.

when elise visited a&bé bridal shop and viewed our rue de seine wedding dresses, ‘roam’ gown practically popped out at her. the intricate vine and floral lace left a whimsical appeal that elise absolutely loved. liking the gown’s high neckline and low back, elise felt like this lace wedding dress was the ideal balance of elegance and interest.

as for kira, ‘kyara’ by rue de seine quickly became a fast favorite as wedding dress shopping unfolded. the plunging neckline of kyara felt modern, while the artisan-inspired lacework had a vintage aesthetic. kira liked the architectural detail of this a-line wedding dress and the exceptional embroidered details. while kira came in unsure of her exact bridal style, she left a&bé with a clearer head and in love with a rue de seine gown!

unplugged wedding ceremony sign

one detail that was incredibly important to elise and kira was their guests being fully present when watching them get married. because of this, elise and kira chose to have an unplugged wedding ceremony. when guests entered the ceremony space, a sign was prominently displayed that read “we kindly ask that you turn off all cell phones and cameras to be fully present with us. thank you”.

by setting this ceremony expectation and reinforcing it with decorative wedding signage, your guests can savor your thoughtful vows. in addition to being able to fully observe the moment, unplugged wedding ceremonies also assist your professional vendors. your wedding photographer is better able to capture genuine and unobstructed moments when guests aren’t occupied by their devices.

rustic wedding reception ideas

after their wedding ceremony, their rustic wedding reception began. with a similar industrial warehouse atmosphere as their ceremony, elise and kira infused elegant elements like dark wooden tables, traditional cross back chairs, white tablecloths, and more. soft lighting, such as bistro lights and glowing chandeliers, added a warmth and intimacy to the expansive brick walls and polished concrete floors.

simple fall wedding cake with flowers

during their reception, elise and kira headed over to their dessert table to view their simple fall wedding cake. their two tier wedding cake was displayed among other autumn pastries like delicious donuts. this small and simplistic wedding cake fit perfectly with their minimal warehouse wedding venue's aesthetic. covered in white icing and adorned with fresh flowers and greenery, the cohesive design was classical and chic.

after cutting their wedding cake, elise and kira hit the dance floor. enjoying their wedding music and making memories with their loved ones, their wedding reception felt vibrant and full of energy. from an unplugged ceremony to an unforgettable reception evening, elise and kira carefully planned every detail of their big day. by blending the industrial with the natural, they created an individualized style that seemed to wow their guests. much like the bold patterns and modern silhouettes of their rue de seine wedding dresses, elise and kira’s wedding day was a seamless blend of traditional elegance with contemporary style.
