Hiya, Cakies! Did you catch this morning’s cocktail party shoot? It had so many good groom’s fashion ideas, not to mention that sparkly gown our bride rocked. Speaking of wedding fashion, we love to gather inspiration from *real* brides and grooms as much as we can here at 100LC. Our friends at The Black Tux just launched a video for their 2018 campaign, Dreams Delivered, which is all about being able to pull off your dream wedding—whether it’s on a mountaintop, in a tropical locale, or right here at home—dream fashion included. We caught up with a few of their couples, both brides-to-be and newly marrieds, to get the scoop on their own dream weddings… Get inspired by all four dream weddings and peep The Black Tux’s latest video, below:
Venessa of We The Classy
Dream Wedding Style: Romantic Ranch Wedding in Scottsdale Arizona / White / Twinkle Lights
If you could get married anywhere in the world where would it be?
The same spot we got married, at DC Ranch Country Club in Scottsdale outdoors, it was perfect!
Your proposal story:
I had been so busy and my husband, boyfriend at that time, kept trying to set a day to take me on a date. He was so frustrated that my social calendar was packed. We finally nailed down a night to go out. I was floored by how romantic the date was. Then at sunset he got up from the dinner table and got down on one knee. I was SHOCKED! Had I known he was trying to propose to me, I probably would have cleared my calendar a little faster haha! I wouldn’t change a thing! I’m a firm believer life happens as it should and his proposal to me is written in our story.
Thought you all might like a moodboard for each of these dreamy wedding designs… First up, white and blush and twinkling!
What was your wedding dress like? Would it be different if you got married tomorrow?
I had a strapless sweetheart neck Romona Keveza dress. It was white satin with a mermaid fit to show just enough shape. Very classic. I loved and still love my dress, but being a fashion blogger, I constantly think about different dress styles. I might change it up and go for something low backed and a little more sexy if I did it again.
Dream honeymoon?
Dream honeymoon is to travel around Europe and possibly Greece. We went to Turks and Caicos and it was amazing.
Dress: (similar here) / Tux: Emerald Shawl Jacket Tux
Who’s your dream reception performer?
Coldplay, because when my hubby and I were dating we went to the Coldplay concert. We had lawn seats, and we laid on the grass together looking at the stars when they played Yellow. It was the most romantic moment I hold dear to my heart.
They went with the Emerald Shawl Jacket Tux because it’s festive and playful but still classic.
Dream Wedding Style: Mexico Tulum Wedding
Your proposal story: My husband proposed to me at the beach by hiding the engagement ring in a shell during my shell hunt!
If you could get married anywhere in the world where would it be?
I got married at my dream paradise, Hotel Esencia, in Tulum, Mexico
Tell us about *the* dress:
I actually got to design my dream wedding dress myself, along with Sherri Hill! It has a long detachable cape overlay and super minimal low open back dress.
Dress: For Love & Lemons / Suit: Tan Suit
Dream dessert scenario? Creme brûlée
Andrea Pion
Dream Wedding Style: The Classic Romantic
If you could get married anywhere in the world where would it be and why?
UGH! PARIS! Because, duh! No, I’m actually very, very happy with where our wedding will be and wouldn’t change it! We are getting married in Pittsburgh, PA and have a mansion that the bridal party will be staying in, a cathedral for the ceremony, and the party is in a museum.
Your proposal story:
Marc and I live in Brooklyn. It was my first Christmas away from my family, I stayed back in Brooklyn with hopes of getting a ring for Christmas! Wishful thinking! My parents felt bad and flew out after the holiday to have Christmas with me in New York. On our way to dinner in DUMBO, I walked my parents to see the Manhattan skyline, which was all lit up! And that’s when Marc dropped down on one knee–little did I know his entire family was surrounding us too! And he had a table and champagne waiting at our favorite Mexican spot! It was perfect!
Dress: BHLDN / Tux: Black & Tartan Tux
If you had to plan a dream wedding in 24 hours, what would it look like:
If I had 24 hours to plan a wedding, I would elope for sure to Paris! Marc would for sure still wear a tuxedo though! Haha! Definitely a classic black style, like the Peak Lapel. I probably would find a chic short dress and wear a birdcage veil.
Intimate vs. Huge Party?
HUGE PARTY all the way. For me, it’s all about the memories and the people you share you day with over anything else.
Alena of Moda Prints
Dream Wedding Style: Boho Vintage Bali Destination Wedding
If you could get married anywhere in the world where would it be and why?
Bali because it’s just the most beautiful place ever!
Yep, this is a boho vintage beach dream for sure!
Who’s your dream wedding guest and why?
My Dad! He passed away 12 years ago and what I would do to have him there to celebrate our special day!
Dress: BHLDN / Suit: The Hemingway Outfit
