one second at a wedding

Wedding Photographers love weddings, I do . I belong to a forum of the best 80 wedding photographers in the business … there was a discussion what was the single best second at any wedding … here are two top moments one from a San Francisco wedding , I envy you you San Francisco wedding photographers. The couple got married on the Cameo Rose in the San Francisco Bay, this is the moment we went under the Golden Gate Bridge .. I just love the expression on the bride and grooms face, they have since told me this now is a monster piece of art as you walk into their home.

Wedding trends 2010

Wedding Trends for 2010
With all the new technology in the world of weddings, from Twitter to Facebook engagement announcements, the biggest trend is a to the past: ’50s-inspired glamour. In my earlier posts I had mentioned this Retro weddings. So couples getting married are looking to mix this vintage wedding trend with their own personality. Wedding photographs below are from a retro wedding I photographed in CT
waters-edge-resort

‘Homespun Chic’ is the word “Many of the year’s top wedding trends reflect an obsession with the sophistication of the 1950s and ’60s my wedding from Waters Edge resort

Also look for quirky surprises, inspired by couple’s unique personality, or of-the-moment pop-culture crazes.

1 The 1980s are back in a huge way, weddings are not immune. 1980s prom music will be huge at fashion-forward receptions and parties

2 Its all Avatar, the 3-D craze will also be hitting the wedding scene with 3-D save-the-dates, menus and more. Save the date crossword puzzle-styles video announcements, and special performances

3 Inspired by the hit show, Glee, couples are taking their first dance to a whole new level by opting for a “mash-up” (or medley) of songs instead of a single one

4 High-top trainers peeking out from under his tuxedo. A glimpse of a pink petticoat under the hemline of her dress! bright-green socks for the groom and bright-green shoes for the bride! Couples are really showing color and their individuality, underneath it all.

5 Forget the sparklers, confetti canons and hot air balloon sendoffs will be all the rage.

6 Here comes the bride, look for interesting entrances from the bridal party after this years youtube hit video.

Whats Hots Museum Weddings

Whats hot museum weddings, this past week I have had three enquiries for museum weddings. Modern Museum London, The Natural History Museum. I really enjoy photographing in these stunning buildings, the art has already been added. A museum or art centre is a perfect wedding venue for those wishing to have culture to their wedding. Museum or art gallery weddings give the chance to explore a range of interesting historical collections and art. Most museums and art galleries are set in beautiful buildings, some historical, which are surrounded by stunning gardens. How to plan a museum wedding. Visit the museum a few times before the wedding, to get some tips and ideas of the layout and how you’d like to set up the room. Most venues offer wedding packages and services .
