Bohemian Romance

There’s something about pre-weddings that I absolutely adore. Aside from the beautiful locations and gorgeous couples, it’s the genuineness that really warms my heart. Today’s snaps by Myio Okamoto will surely bring a surge of emotion that will have you smiling from ear to ear. I personally love how the theme smoothly transitioned from classy to bohemian.  The mixture of black with warm earthy tones created a beautiful color palette that will surely soothe your eyes! Two entirely different themes, and yet this pre-wedding certainly pulled it off! I won’t keep you waiting any longer, lovelies! You know the drill–scroll down and drown yourselves in love and bliss!

5 Great Tips To Help You Design Your Wedding Invitations Better

Let’s talk wedding invites today–one of my favorite wedding details! These gorgeous paper goods are one of the first things you send out to your guests, and it reveals the theme and vibe of your wedding first hand. You’ll want your invitations to both represent you and your groom-to-be as a couple and look like the upcoming wedding–but how do you exactly go about deciding that? Anina Rubio dishes a few tips to help us! Take a look below!

1. Color and contrast. Make sure that the invitation matches the color scheme of the wedding. It’s also ideal to add some contrast by making other pages washed with a background color. For example, in the spread below, the main invite and entourage are white, while the RSVP card is pink. This makes the whole suite look more interesting, especially if you have a colorful theme!

2. Handwritten elements. Incorporate handwritten or hand-painted elements to make the invitation look more natural and organic. It will create a nice contrast to the typewritten elements in the cards and allow for an overall balanced look. [Photo: Jaja Samaniego]
