This Couple’s Engagement Shoot Reveals the Beauty of Both Old and Modern Japan

One of the challenges of doing an engagement shoot in a well-photographed and often-visited country like Japan is looking for unique and fresh places where you can set your own love story. This was a task that Mikho and Kris took seriously, and it definitely paid off! They showcased the natural beauty of the Nachi Falls in Wakayama and the old Japanese culture in Nanzen-Ji Temple in Kyoto. These places represented the old and raw Japan which they contrasted very well with the modern elegance of the Osaka City Station. The colors and textures that Metrophoto were able to capture in this set are simply breathtaking. Enjoy!

This Pastel Themed Wedding in Tagaytay is So Beautiful!

Today, I’ll be showing you Sydnie and Annika’s beautiful wedding. I especially love their pastel themed reception setup by Badang Rueda–the white flowers, crystals, and wreaths hanging down from the ceiling, with the pink flowers on the tables, all look so pretty together! I also like how the bride’s gown by Mel Orlina matches the sweet feminine vibe of the wedding. The off-shoulder cut, applique, and long train give the dress every bit the modern princess look. I’m sure you’ll find the wedding cake by Piece of Cake just as lovely too, so make sure to spot it! You’re surely in for a treat with this couple’s special day. Thanks to Nice Print Photography for sending these shots over!

I get excited browsing through engagement shoots because they have a way of showcasing the couple’s personalities. Ray and Cha are clear fashionistas and it showed! Their modern and minimalist outfits, combined with their natural poses, are so on point that all of their photos look like it came straight out of a fashion catalogue. For classy neutral dressing, take a tip or two from this trendy couple. I can’t wait for you to see all the shots by Toto Villaruel!

This is How Magical It Looks When Two Stylish Individuals Tie The Knot!

I know every wedding has its own beauty, and every celebration it’s own uniqueness. Yet I still find myself awestruck time and time again as I experience weddings like Jason and Hannah’s. Jason, a businessman and partner at Signet (a men’s specialty store), and Hannah, a young and talented wedding gown designer, decided to tie the knot, and everything looked magical. The bride of course, designed her gowns (yes she wore two jaw-dropping dresses), as well as her bridesmaids’ gowns! Equally stunning was the breathtaking reception dinner styled by Gideon Hermosa. All of the gorgeous details were captured by world-renowned photographer Kurt Boomer. The photos below will certainly show the stunning elements and lovely moments that filled this wedding.

My husband and I attended this wedding and I can really say first hand how I fell in love with it. The food by Cibo d M was indeed a hit! Waiters went around serving steak and other mouth watering dishes. I have to commend the couple, who insisted on using long tables instead of circular ones. I specifically found this a great choice since it gave a very elegant and intimate feel to the evening. Oh and don’t forget to check out the video by Bob Nicolas for you to see more of what I’m talking about! But for now, I leave you with this wedding and I hope you love it as much as I do.

See This Sweet Garden Wedding With A Muted Color Scheme!

Sometimes, your wedding doesn’t need to have the brightest and boldest of colors–especially if it’s not your style. Opt for more muted colors like gray and white, and then dress up your wedding with natural greens, just like Paolo and Hanna did. Today’s couple utilized the greens in Bella Rosa Gardens to help add some brightness and freshness to their big day. The couple’s invites and the bride’s beautiful bouquet also had touches of greens that were the perfect accent to the bride’s sleek dress, the entourage’s ensembles, and the cute flower girls’ getups. Get some more inspiration as you scroll through Polk Studios‘ lovely set below.
