Rustic Wedding 2015

Hello My beautiful Brides. Today I am inspired by all things rustic. It is definitely trending this year and is set to be trending for 2015. The wedding season is upon us in Australia. 

These are some of the key elements to a rustic wedding. 

Mason Jars filled with candles or fairy lights. They look so elegant just hanging in the trees. 

Another lighting idea of the wedding table is candles made from trees. I love both of these ideas because they are eco friendly and you can make them yourself. 

All this burlap and beautiful spring flowers fit within the rustic theme. Oh and you can't forget a waste coat and contrasting gingham shirt! It may seem casual but in actual fact an look quite smart if done properly. 

For the bride- a rustic garter. You can haven customised with a burlap flower or if you have a slim fitting free stick to the plain ivory rustic lace with fastens up in a corset style tiffany blue bow at the back. 

How beautiful is all of this lace! You can't go wrong with an off the shoulder lacy wedding dress this season!

How cute is these rustic table of treats. black boards, chalk , tree stumps, burlap- all essentials to your rustic wedding!

I hope you are feeling inspired for your rustic themed wedding!

Beautiful hair designs of 2014

Happy new year to all of your beautiful brides out there. I am so excited for what 2014 has to bring with new trends and styles for 2014 brides and for NB Garters!
The Great Gatsby theme is still going strong making a big impact of headwear for 2014.

Braid crowns are the in thing for your beautiful wedding hair so i thought i would give you a tutorial!!
I took the photos from Oncewed because the photos are so beautiful. Why not try it today!

1. Part hair down middle. Secure one side of the hair with a clip or elastic so it doesn’t get mixed in with the other side.

2. Grab a section of hair at the nape of the neck. Split into three.

3. Start to do an INSIDE-OUT French braid (instead of crossing sections over each other, cross under).

4+5. Continue braiding inside-out, wrapping around the side of the head.

6. You’ll cross the forehead and finish the braid. Secure with a hair tie. Let braid hang whilst you braid the second side.

7. Grab a section of hair at the top of the head and split into three.

8. Start to do an INSIDE-OUT French braid down the side of the head.  Finish the braid and secure with an elastic.

9. Take braid and wrap around the back of the head.

10. Secure with Bobbi pins. Tuck and hide small tail under the other braid. Grab the braid resting on the forehead and secure with Bobbi pins. Tuck tail under other braid. 

For some celebrity inspiration for the braid crown…

Choosing your wedding Dress, Celebrity Dresses and all things Vera Wang!...

I have been memorised recently by the designs of Vera Wang. Everyone knows her as brilliant designer but she is also one of the most chosen designers by celebrities for her brilliant craftsmanship for wedding dresses!

Photo from www.verawang.com

There is a Vera Wang Wedding dress store in Sydney which I would definitely make at trip for just to have a look at her dresses! I love how she has a whole range that are red, cream and black not just the conventionally white dress!! BLACK! Who would think to wear a Black dress on their wedding day! But I have seen photos and the bride just looks stunning!! What do you think?

I think that is is great to continue with traditions in weddings otherwise where would NB Garters stand?:) ...but vera' s revolutionised wedding dresses and taken them to the next level!

By using such delicate materials of organza, tulle, silk and lace these dresses will transform your wedding day!

Photo from www.verawang.com

I think it is so wonderful how Vera can design your dress. She puts so much love and care into each and every design. She is so unique as a designer  i have fallen in love with her!

From this:

To this:

I think that this is absolutely stunning! 

Vera is so popular with celebrities at the moment too! Hillary Duff wears a Vera Wang Mermaid dress which transforms her in to a princess! She looks so grown up with her hair up too!:) This dress i great for slim or curvy girls. I just love how the vintage style mermaid dress is fitted down to her thigh I think it is so sexy! 

Kim Kardashian also chose Vera Wang for her wedding! She looks like PRINCESS! She didn't just have one dress! Kim wore 3 different Wang dresses on her big day!:) A great idea if you can't choose which dress to wear!

I wish we could all have a  Vera Wang Wedding dress!:-)

NEW range of bridal horseshoes coming soon!

Wedding horseshoes are a big tradition in Australia and America which is why I have decided to design a new collection for the modern bride. 

The horseshoe is traditionally given to the bride on her wedding day to bring the newly wedded couple good luck on their wedding day and for the rest of their marriage, The greeks also believe it will bring them fertility which I read on the Bride Guide. 

I think it is great to add another tradition to your wedding day.

I have designed a new range to add a touch of elegance and modernise the traditional bulky horseshoe!

I am pre launching one design and more will be on their way so watch this space!
