Wedding

Ready to swoon? This vintage inspired wedding encompasses everything we adore. From the cheerful color palette to the 1950's inspired wedding dress, this is one of our favorite "real wedding" submissions to date. ♥

Adore the shorter length wedding dress? You can find the Tiffany Gown at our boutique! The stunning green dress (our Viburnum dress) is perfect for bridesmaids, the mother-of-the-bride, and guests too. We love how the beauty above paired it with a classic updo.

When we first caught glimpse of this outdoor wedding, we were swooning over all the crafty details and gorgeous landscapes! The beautiful bride married her husband under the trees in a DIY-yet- elegant ceremony, surrounded by family and friends in the great outdoors. Exchanging vows with the love of her life under blue skies and green pastures, this beautiful bride complimented her perfect day with lots of personalized pieces such as a homemade doily banners, thrifted mason jars and lawn games for guests to play in between the ceremony and reception. Dressing half her bridal party in our dresses, the individuality of each frock was the perfect compliment to this rustic farm wedding!

Through all the perfect details of each photograph we can't help but melt at the looks of love shared between this adoring couple. Cheers to you both!

Planning out every detail of her dream wedding for the past year and a half, bride Ashley Harmon achieved every bride's dream, she found her wedding dress in a matter of weeks. With the biggest purchase out of the way, Ashley set about to piece together the little details, looking for the perfect head piece and jewelry to compliment her perfect day.

Just two weeks before the wedding and countless hours spent judging pieces that were too plain and too elaborate, Ashley stumbled upon Ruche and instantly feel in love with the vintage inspired wedding pieces. Feeling that she had finally come to the right place, Ashley made the perfect choice purchasing the "Ever Mine Ivory Fascinator", and waiting with anticipation for her veil  to arrive by mail. "Of course my wedding day would have been just as special if I hadn't had the perfect necklace or the perfect veil, but having both made it all the more sweet," says Ashley. And from the photos sent by the blushing bride and her groom, we could not picture a more perfect, vintage inspired day as well.

Ashley, of Southern (California) Belle, wore our pink Hydrangea dress dress to a friend's wedding in Hawaii!  Not only does the dress look amazing on her, but the flowy gown is perfect for an event in tropical location.  We also want to congratulate Ashley because while she was in Hawaii, she got engaged.  Best of wishes and happy planning to her and her fiance. ♥

This stunning photo shoot was submitted by the talented Brent and Anna, of Live View Studios. With a romantic story in mind and a beautiful couple to model, the photographers brought their vision of a vintage-inspired elopement to life. ♥

Posing as a bride, Natasha wears our Gemma Lynn dress. Isn't is perfect for a courthouse wedding?

In the story, the bride and groom watch the sunset together after their intimate beach gathering. Among the gorgeous retro wedding inspiration and nautical details, we couldn't help but notice how the dress effortlessly transitions from a city hall ceremony to a beach reception.

At sunset, the retro-inspired wedding shoot comes to an end and we're left with gorgeous photos and a reminder of true everlasting love.

Thank you, Live View Studios, for sharing this photo shoot with us!

On June 4th, 2011 I married my best friend and the love of my life.

With the wedding season, the talk of of ceremony decorations, first dances and wedding gowns crept into the air and allowed me the time to sit down and really go through all of our (Josh & I) wedding photos from last year. It's been over a year now, and I am still completely in love with how everything came together, and of course, my wonderful husband. That being said, I feel that it would be a complete shame not to share some photos of our incredible day!

Inspired by fall color palettes, we couldn't help but swoon over the vibrant colors in this fall wedding. See below for stunning photographs and this lovely bride's thoughts on wedding planners. ♥

When my husband Andy and I started planning for our fall wedding last year, I had every intention of single-handedly planning the perfect wedding. Something fun and memorable that would not only be beautiful but unique. Long story short, I quickly realized that juggling a full time job, a brand new blog and a mountain of wedding details just wasn't in the cards for me.

Fortunately, my amazing fiance came to the rescue and hired a planner to help pick up where I left off. I still got a ceremony and reception chalk full of personal touches, like the brunch themed menu with muffin baskets for our centerpieces and the mason jars overflowing with vibrant seasonal flowers to line the cobblestone aisle, but on my wedding day someone else took care of coordinating delivery and set up for the florist, caterers and photographer.

Every girl deserves her dream wedding, but it's easy to get bogged down with the details. Even if you can't afford to hire someone, don't be afraid to ask friends and family for help. Chances are once you let go of the reins a little you'll end up with something the surpasses all you expectations, I certainly did.
