Martine's Katy Trefry Photography
MU S I N G S
WITH CHRISTMAS approacing, many of you will be dreaming of bling, as in an engagement ring. If “Santa” delivers, it’s time for the planning to begin! Thankfully, January is filled with wedding shows that can provide you with plenty of ideas and the opportunity to meet a variety of vendors. Maybe you’ll even win an incredible prize. But before you hit the shows and schedule appointments, I’d like you to consider this question: What comes first, the dress or the venue? I’d suggest that you say “no” to the dress until you’ve selected your venue. I know, I know. You’ve been carrying around a photo of your dream dress for ages and nothing else will do. But, I can’t tell you how many weddings I’ve attended where the dress just didn’t mesh with the style of the venue or the venue didn’t do justice to the dress. Let me provide some examples. A blinged-out ballgown is going to look odd in a venue such as a barn. On the other hand, a simple slip of a dress is going to look underwhelming in a grand ballroom. By the way, the same philosophy applies to cakes and flowers. All the
components need to complement each other. So, my advice is to first decide your wedding style and then book a venue based on that. When you begin visiting venues, I’d recommend that you have three dates in mind. Despite the increasing number of venues in South Central PA, you can’t lock yourself into a date; you’re going to have to be flexible in booking your top pick, especially during peak times. Once you have your venue, it’s time to go shopping for your dream gown! This issue of Dream Weddings is dedicated to the question I posed earlier. I was inspired by Lancaster’s newest events venue, the Excelsior, which is located in the downtown area. I wanted drama and I felt the building in its pre-rehabbed state would provide the perfect backdrop. Once I had my venue, everything else fell into place. I turned to Cocoa Couture in Hershey for my fashions. Stores like this are a testament to the fact that you don’t have to travel to New York or Philadelphia for the latest trends and designer labels you see on television. We have them right here in South Central PA. The gowns Cocoa Couture provided certainly added an element of drama to the photo shoot. As we move into 2016, bridal fashions are being inspired by one of the most-talked about dramas on television, Game of Thrones. I think the Game of Thrones inspiration also speaks to modern day woman power! Who knows, perhaps a woman will be our next president. An element of drama was also provided by Bradley Douglas Jordan, a
York native who heads Philly-based Couture Masks. I was so excited when he agreed to loan me his custom masks, headpieces and a cape for the shoot. I mean, this man did a mask for Rhianna’s Vogue shoot! The shoot also had another element of drama. Delanie Dischert, one of our models, was heading for LA after she was finished in Lancaster. Her next assignment just happened to be season 22 of America’s Next Top Model. See you in your dreams!
