Are veils in or out? What trends are in & out for Fall 2023 weddings

As we enter into the next season, this only means all the Fall & Winter brides are wedding planning & i’m here throwing in my opinions & ideas! Are wedding veils in or out? What other wedding trends are in & out? What’s cool & does it actually matter? No it doesn’t trends come & go & all I could ever ask of my couples is to do whatever they want on their wedding day!

So do I think wedding veils are out? Never!! They are timeless & hold great value, meaning, & can complete the true essence of a bride. However if you aren’t planning to do things traditionally or happen to not hold those values close, then don’t feel obligated to do them! Plus, you can have a wedding veil for only part of your wedding day, if you don’t to worry about having to carry or worry about another thing on wedding day!

IN: Colorful wedding days have been becoming a bigger trend within the last year & these are some of my favorites! I love when couples use a colorful palette for their wedding day! From florals, to the table scape, even different colored bridesmaids dresses, this is a vibe I hope more couples decide to do!

IN: Simple Wedding Cakes! I think this is by far the way to go on wedding day! You tend to see the more simple & minimal wedding cakes at elopements & this has definitely become a wedding trend at traditional weddings. Having the “Just Married” written across your cake is so effortless cool & easy! Sometimes the prices of wedding cakes can be crazy to see as a first time bride & if that’s not something you thought would break the bank, then go for something more simple! Order a cake just for y’all to cut as newlyweds & then have a sheet cake or a dessert table for your guests to munch on!

IN: Embroidered Details! This has been on Pinterest like crazy & I have been drooling over it & patiently waiting for a couple of mine to do! This has become a newer trend, but those having an embroidered veil with your soon to be last name, “to have & to hold”, “till death do us part”, your wedding date, the options are truly endless! Also, I love when brides have wedding gloves & even having some details on those are just chef’s kiss & so elegant! This is a great trend for all the brides wanting a timeless!

IN: Changing at your wedding! This isn’t just for the brides, & can also be for groom’s or whoever wants to do a switch in outfits! I absolutely love this idea & think this is so fun especially if you see another outfit & want to include it in your wedding day! This could be your dancing all night & grand exit outfit! Or if y’all are wanting to go out comfy, then get matching sweat suits!

OUT: What really is out? Letting other people tell you how you should do your wedding day! I do think wedding trends come & go, but that doesn’t mean you can’t do them, I truly believe if it’s something you love & are absolutely obsessed with, then that should be a part of your wedding day! Because guess what? It’s your wedding day, not there’s.

Reminder: I'm capturing everything about your wedding day!

As a wedding photographer I capture your day as is happens & want all of my couples to know the day will happen as it’s meant to be.

Every wedding day is different & I go into each wedding day with the same intentions of capturing the day as it happens & every moment that makes it up. I love being able to tell your story and seeing the emotion from everyone on your day is something that should be remembered! Especially some moments you might miss out on like Your significant other getting ready, your parent’s reactions during your ceremony, your guests & family at cocktail hour, plus there’s so many more moments your photographer can capture on your wedding day. I love being a little fly on the wall witnessing & capturing all the moments as they play out.

Catherine & Jose’s wedding day was full of so much love & anticipation for the day. It made me so happy to be able to see these two have the wedding day of their dreams! They were able to have all of their people altogether for their wedding day & everybody was cheering them on! Being able to truly celebrate your love is something that leaves you with a smile on your face throughout the entire day. Love is so contagious & you can see it through these photos!

I’m currently booking until the end of 2023 for weddings & elopements all over Texas 🤠✨

How soon after you get engaged should you have your engagement shoot?

How soon after you get engaged should you have your engagement shoot?

If you’re thinking about having your engagement photos done then start planning & creating the vibe for your own engagement session! Involve your partner with planning & ask their opinion, then hop on Pinterest & find inspiration! However if you have the perfect idea, then do that! I highly recommend incorporating the things you love into your photos, this just allows your personality shine & that’s what you want your photos to do!

While you’re in the newly engaged era, enjoy it! But don’t feel rush to have your engagement photos done. You might feel rushed if you’re planning for a wedding in a short amount of time, but this is why I suggest doing the things you love into your photos. If the time of year were in isn’t your favorite or what you are hoping for, then opt for doing a studio, in home, or date night session!

Finding your photographer is another important factor, so find someone that you resonate with & might want to consider as a wedding photographer!
