Mercedes and Jeffrey
Choosing a wedding dress can be a daunting task, between the hundreds of online retailers promising custom made inexpensive gowns, to the thousands of brick and mortar bridal boutiques offering designer dresses, how does a Bride choose? There are a few no-fail strategies to get you through the process.
Choose a classic silhouette. Your wedding dress may not fit in 20 years but your wedding photos (artfully captured by Le Image of course) will lasts a lifetime. The last thing you want to do is pick a “trending style” that will date your photos. Classic ball gowns, mermaid style and sheath gowns are a few beautiful silhouettes that flatter a variety of body types.
Pick a style similar to your everyday taste. A woman is suppose to feel her most beautiful on her wedding day, so choosing a style that is completely different than anything you would ever wear is probably not a good idea. If you are usually into clean classic looks, opting for a pink high-low ruffled gown is probably not a good idea. Feeling confident in what you have on will shine through in your photos and video!
Our photography team captured the nuptials of this adorable couple at Queens-based wedding venue, Charisma Ballroom this past spring. Mercedes chose a dress that was perfect for her. She went with a classic white one-shoulder gown with flowers on the strap and bodice. She added elegant accessories to complete the look like a diamond bracelet and necklace and delicate drop earrings. She looked stunning.
The Bride and Groom exchanged vows in a Christian ceremony at The First Church of Christ in Maspeth NY before taking portraits in the neighborhood. They held their reception at Charisma Ballroom, a family owned queens wedding venue that offers shockingly affordable wedding packages!
