UP THE WOW

You’ve finally found your prince charming, and now it’s time to kick off your happily ever after. Glam brides love to make a statement: bold colors, large blooms, and of course, anything that sparkles.

Table Decor

Guests should feel like they’re eating the nicest dinner of their life amidst a beautifully verdant garden. Look for flatware in bold metallics and place settings with whimsical details.

Pulling off a glam wedding is finding the perfect balance between extravagance and tasteful details.

This style is all about the wow factor: sprawling centerpieces, perfect place settings, and magnificent floral arrangements.

When choosing colors, reds and pinks are classic choices, but jewel tones like amethyst and emerald are also a great way to go. Metallic highlights are a must, not to mention sparkling crystal and gemstone accents.

Cakes

Towering confections with delicately frosted details are certain to make an impression on your guests. Garlands and lace designs add the perfect amount of extravagance, but they can be labor intensive. Balance them out with a few floral stems or a fanciful cake topper with your monogram.

Dresses

Going glam doesn’t necessarily mean you have to wear a ball gown. Get the same effect by choosing a statement veil or a dress with a breathtaking train. If you feel like a princess in your dress, you’ll look like one too — and that’s what matters in the end.

bridal tip

When it comes to glamorous florals, the bigger the better. Cascading bouquets of roses and lilies are popular, with plenty of greens to frame the arrangement. Worried about the price? You can use plenty of florals like baby’s breath to help fill out your bouquet without sacrificing style.

Invitations

drama in the details

Your stationery suite sets the tone for guests weeks before your wedding, and for a glam bride it’s your first chance to make an impression.

Your invitations should pay attention to every detail and splurge on decorative elements. Embossed lettering, laser-cut filigree, and hand-lettered calligraphy will take invitations to the next level.

Stationery isn’t just your invitations; keep the same elements for wedding programs and place cards. Adding these personalized touches will make guests revel in the wonder of it all and feel like they’re part of your love story, too.
