CONGRATS FROM CARLEY
Naeem Khan’s latest masterpiece
welcome to the e fashion issue! The dress. This is one of the first and (I’m not exaggerating) most important decisions you’ll make. Here’s why: Your dress defines your style and is one of the bigger ticket items you’ll buy (pretty much ever). Find plenty of beautiful gowns to inspire you in these pages, as well as fresh ideas for everything from your flowers to your favors. 360° view
style inspiration Anja Winikka, site director of TheKnot.com, wore a custom Melissa Sweet gown and veil for her wedding in Tucson, AZ (p. 306).

CONTRIBUTORS CORBIN GURKIN, PHOTOGRAPHER
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE DRESS TO SHOOT FOR THIS ISSUE? I adored the Vera Wang. I wore Vera in my own wedding, so I’m partial to her designs, but I particularly loved the modern lines paired with a softer, full skirt. It was a contemporary twist on the classic gown and photographed beautifully.
@corbingurkin
JOHANNA JOHNSON, FASHION DESIGNER
This gorgeous guy decided to join our Charleston, SC, photo shoot.
WHAT INSPIRED YOU WHEN YOU WERE CREATING THE GOWN FOR OUR PAGES? It was important for me to design a gown (p. 192) for this collaboration that exuded our old-Hollywood glamour approach to bridal. I wanted to create a dress made from the heaviest silk satin available, hand-dyed and adorned with our exclusive “knotted” handbeaded detailing.

MARIDEL REYES, FREELANCE WRITER
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF YOUR RECENT TRIP TO MOZAMBIQUE? Taking a sunset cruise around Benguerra Island. The beaches are deserted, the light changes from pink to orange and the tide recedes very far, which means you have to walk about 100 yards to get to the water and into the sailboat. No Instagram filter needed!
Get fresher flowers for less money by buying in-season blooms.
S GRAYSON HANDY, CREATIVE DIRECTOR AT EVENTS PRUDENCE DESIGNS & E
WHAT ARE THREE GREAT BUDGET TIPS YOU GIVE COUPLES? Pick a venue that represents your aesthetic—it’s costly to try to turn a space into something it’s not. Choose flowers in season—importing blooms can be expensive and the quality [may be] compromised. Invest in candles—they add to the décor by creating atmosphere, and everyone looks better by candlelight.

wedding timeline Here’s what to do, when, on your way to the altar.
months date:
12+
months date:
6 to 8
______ /______ /______
______ /______ /______
Go to TheKnot.com/planner and enter your wedding date to get a free personalized to-do list. Define your wedding style and choose your color palette. Settle on the budget with help from your parents (or other contributors) and enter it at TheKnot.com/budget. Choose your wedding date and time. Finalize it after checking with key guests (parents, grandparents, attendants). Start outlining the guest list and enter it at TheKnot.com/guestlist. Create your wedding website. (Get a free customizable site at TheKnot.com/pwp.)
9 to11 months date:
Plan out the ceremony with your officiant and discuss any specific religious requirements (such as premarital counseling). Go wedding dress shopping and order your gown and your veil. Book your florist, photographer, videographer and band or DJ. Start a prewedding beauty regimen; schedule facials, manicures and so on. Have engagement photos taken. Start planning your honeymoon. Research and book ceremony musicians. Research hairstylists and makeup artists.
______ /______ /______
Finalize your guest list. Scout and book the ceremony and reception location(s). Choose and book an officiant. Work with hosts on an engagement party, and register for gifts. Pick your bridal party, and ask them in a creative way. Two examples: sending them a Vine video invitation or mailing them ring pops and “proposing.” If your venue doesn’t have an in-house caterer, interview candidates and select one. Hash out a rough price per head; then start thinking about the menu. Start shopping for your wedding dress. Research photographers and videographers in your area. Research DJs and bands for the reception. Research and interview florists. Research lighting designers and rental companies. Research stationers and choose one. Choose and order your save-the-dates.
K

Start researching ceremony and reception sites. You can check out thousands of venues at TheKnot.com/venues. Book any vendors you consider a priority. Book a wedding planner (if using one). Get your engagement ring appraised— and then have it insured.
Interview and book a cake baker. Choose the bridesmaid dresses and fill in your attendants, so they can order them and schedule fittings. Set aside blocks of rooms at nearby hotels for out-of-town guests. Send out your save-the-dates. Work with the hosts to start planning the rehearsal dinner. Finalize and order your invitations. Order thank-you notes now too. Reserve venues for the next-day brunch, welcome party and after-party. Interview and book a day-of coordinator. Research and purchase wedding insurance (if you’re using it). >> From Top: lisa Hubbard, anTonis acHilleos

Design and order the groom’s cake. Arrange for day-of transportation for you, the wedding party and guests (if needed).
Send out wedding invitations at the six-to-eight-week mark. Work on your ceremony vows, if you’re writing them yourselves. (Don’t put this off until the last minute!) Make a plan for the younger guests and arrange for babysitters for the reception, if necessary. Buy your wedding accessories (like hair adornments). Decide on your “something old, new, borrowed and blue.” Order or start assembling the ceremony programs. Order your guest book and any supplies for your escort card display. Confirm room blocks for the out-oftown guests. Have your first dress fitting. Schedule hair and makeup trial appointments to take place three to four weeks before the wedding. Write thank-you notes for gifts as your receive them. This will help you from falling too far behind later. Attend food tastings and finalize the reception menu with your caterer.

Follow up on missing RSVPs. Finalize the seating chart and distribute to vendors. Give your caterer, cake baker and site manager the final head count. Include vendors such as the band. Supply the site manager with requests from vendors (like a table for the DJ). Work on your escort cards (or send them to your calligrapher). Shop and pack for the honeymoon. Confirm all final payment amounts, details and delivery with vendors. Confirm day-of schedule and contact list; distribute to wedding party, parents and vendors. Prepare your wedding toasts.
Pack overnight bag for the wedding night. Leave a copy of your honeymoon itinerary with close friends and family. Put tips for vendors in envelopes and give to an attendant (or planner) to distribute. Have a bridesmaid or your maid of honor put together a day-of emergency kit. Steam or press dress if needed. Touch base with the ceremony and reception sites one more time to go over the schedule and any last-minute details. Before the rehearsal, determine the order of bridesmaids and groomsmen in the processional and recessional. Confirm flower delivery times. Confirm wedding transportation. Deliver welcome bags to out-of-town guests’ hotel rooms (get attendants to help if possible). Confirm with anyone giving toasts.

Have your final dress fitting. Compile a must-take photo list. Deliver “must play” or “don’t play” song list to DJ or bandleader. Include your first, father-daughter and mother-son dances.

Return tuxedo rentals. Freeze the top layer of your cake. Make a note of any stains on your wedding dress and take it to be cleaned and/or preserved. Send your vendors thank-you notes and submit online reviews while the details are still fresh in your mind. When you return from your honeymoon, call and thank each of your attendants. Send out your thank-you notes for gifts as soon as you possibly can.
______ /______ /______
Get a manicure and pedicure. Bring all ceremony accessories to the site. Rehearse the ceremony and attend rehearsal dinner. Give marriage license to your officiant. Present your attendants with their presents at the rehearsal dinner. Introduce your reception manager and coordinator or maid of honor, so they can deal with any problems during the party.

etiquette Q& A
a sk carley Our cofounder answers your questions.
Q Although we made it clear on our invitations that we’re not having children at the wedding, we’ve had guests call to ask if they could bring their kids. We even had one guest call to say his wife couldn’t make it, so he’s bringing his sixyear-old instead. He didn’t even bother to ask! What do I do? —LaurenS47516
kid-free festivities
A We know this is tricky, but the bottom line is you have to stand your ground. Let your guests know that although you adore their little ones, this is an adults-only event. Make it clear that there will be no babysitter to take care of their kids, no special entertainment to keep them busy and no special meals. It may not be easy or pleasant, but when it comes down to it, this is your event. If you feel bad, offer to help them find a local sitter for the night—but that’s it.
Q What’s your take on Friday night weddings? —NicMorrison14
friday fete
A Friday weddings are becoming more and more popular. But, you have to keep in mind that there may be more guests who can’t attend. As a rule, Saturday weddings give guests ample time to get there without having to miss work, and enough time to get home (and recover in case they’re hungover). But if the majority of your guests live in the same area as where your wedding is taking place, a Friday night party shouldn’t be a problem.

Q A
save-the-date question Do I need to send save-the-dates? —thecowgirl37
Q Is it appropriate to have a cocktail hour if I know there are a good portion of guests who don’t drink alcohol? —T1990
mocktail hour
A Absolutely. A cocktail hour is a fun way for guests to pass the time between the ceremony and reception, especially if you’re planning on taking photos in between. In addition to a signature cocktail, you can also create a custom mocktail, which will be a great refreshment for teetotalers. If you’re planning on just serving beer and wine, make sure you have soda and bottled water on hand as well. Plus, you’ll definitely want hors d’oeuvres for everyone to snack on. If you’re still worried about nondrinkers being bored, then make sure you have music (even if it’s just from an iPod) and toko ohmori
Yes. Save-the-dates have become pretty standard and are a must if you’re having a destination wedding. These pre-invitation mailings officially announce your wedding date and let guests know that they will, in fact, be invited. They’re especially important because they give guests enough time to make the appropriate travel arrangements. Make sure you have your guest list finalized before you send them—once they’re in the mail, there’s no going back.

etiquette Q& A
Q One of my good friends, who I’d like to be one of my bridesmaids, has quite a few tattoos. I’m planning on having them wear strapless dresses. Is it rude to ask her to cover her arms during the ceremony? —Tracy1228
inked attendant
how to act, or what’s off-limits when you’re a bridesmaid, there are better ways of letting them know what their role entails. The Knot Bridesmaid Handbook has lots of advice and doubles as a great “will-yoube-my-bridesmaid” gift. If there are specific things you want each girl to do, you can ask them privately.
A Sorry, but yes. You don’t want to single one of your bridesmaids out because of her body art, especially if she’s a good friend. If you’re getting married in a church and are worried about not being allowed to show the tattoos, then you should either choose bridesmaid dresses with sleeves or ask all of your girls to cover up during the ceremony. You can even buy them pashminas as a bridesmaid gift. That way, their looks will all be uniform and you won’t have to worry about any tattoos being seen (or hurting anyone’s feelings).
Q Should I tip my photographer? —jessicaw13
photo tip
A It’s customary to tip all of your wedding professionals, including the photographer. The only exception to this rule is if they own their own company. If your photographer owns his or her own business instead of working for a photography studio, then you’re not expected to tip, although a gift is always appreciated (especially if they did a great job). The amount you tip is completely up to you. We do advise, however, that you decide how much to tip each professional ahead of time. This way, you can put each tip in a sealed and labeled envelope and find a designated tipper for the night (it’s usually the dad, best man or wedding coordinator). Then, at the end of the night, you can enjoy yourself and know that each professional will receive their tip.
Q I’m not sure what I should expect from my bridesmaids. I haven’t officially asked anyone yet and was planning on doing so as a group. Afterwards, I was going to give each of my bridesmaids a list of things I’d like them to do. When I was writing up the list, I realized it sounded stuffy. What are their duties? —lauraAndPeterForever
friendly duties
A Your bridesmaids are your VIPs, and it goes without saying that there are certain things that will be expected of them. But remember: They’re your friends, and if you want to remain close you have to treat them with respect. A long list of duties may not go over as well as you imagine. While it’s not always easy to know what to do,

our current obsession
slow motion video booth We’ve seen our fair share of souped-up photo booths, from amazing backdrops to crazy props, but this one takes the cake. Super Frog Saves Tokyo, a Seattle–based video production company, creates video booths—in slow motion. A RED Epic camera, four LED lights and loads of glitter and confetti power the fun. Booths start at $6,000 (plus travel), which includes 30 hours of postproduction work. Want to wow your guests for less? Visit SFST.com for tips on how to create your own slo-mo booth.

DUDEOIR PHOTOGRAPHY K
You’ve heard of boudoir photography, where brides pose for risqué photos intended for the groom’s eyes only. Not to be outdone, the gentlemen are stepping into the frame. Some wedding photographers are actually offering “dudeoir” portrait sessions, where grooms can channel their inner David Beckham, in various states of undress. Want a calendar of your hunk? A one-hour in-studio session starts at $450 (NYCDudeoir.com).

accessory update
The long veil is back in vogue (thanks in large part to the Kate trio—Moss, Middleton and Bosworth). This look gives brides an elongated silhouette and complements most gowns. Cascading tulle is a nod to tradition, but you can also find modern versions, like this ombré veil. Looking good, Zac! Truly Zac Posen for David’s Bridal. This once-traditional look is reimagined for a rustic affair.

Many gowns can be ordered in extended sizes, but the same dress doesn’t flatter every body type. Designers like Watters (Watters.com) and Alfred Angelo (AlfredAngelo.com) aim to change that by creating dresses specifically for the plus-size bride—up to size 26. Every gown is thoughtfully designed to make curvier brides look and feel their best. >>

reception buzz
It all started with the candy bar!
Why limit your wedding to only one open bar? The possibilities are endless (cigar bar, oyster bar, handkerchief bar, sundae bar). Here are three we’re loving.
the other bar
taco bar Turn your wedding into a fiesta with a make-your-own taco bar. Guests can help themselves to carne asada and battered tilapia. With toppings like fresh avocado, cotija cheese and salsa fresca, it’s no wonder tacos are universally liked.
bubble bar Instead of toasting with a signature cocktail, set up a prosecco or champagne bar. Prepare each flute with a fresh raspberry or blueberry garnish. Fruit infusions and pressed juices allow guests to mix the bubbles any way they’d like.
pickle bar Try your hand at pickling (it’s easy as pie). Classic cukes, radishes, mushrooms, string beans and asparagus can be easily infused with vinegar and salt. Small glass jars turn these briny nibbles into the perfect take-home favor.
We love this onyx setting by DKNY ($86, Lenox.com).

vera wang for FTD registry report Got your dress? Get the flowers to match! Vera Wang has partnered with FTD Florists to design three floral collections for the traditional, romantic and modern bride. Bouquets (from $70, FTDWeddingFlorists.com) are bursting with lush blooms like roses, peonies and calla lilies and finished with satin ribbon.
Swap those white plates for something modern and bold— black! This rich hue is showing up on china, flatware and even wine stems (see our editor in chief’s obsession on page 196). It’s the perfect match for graphic patterns and can easily transition from a casual to formal table.

intense workouts: should you say “I do?” Wanting to look stunning in wedding photos is amazing motivation to get fit. Here are four extreme workouts that soon-to-be weds are trying. Gym newbie? Listen to your body and consider hiring a trainer to prevent injury.
Say no to a refill on your sauvignon blanc.
crossfit (CrossFit.com, prices vary by location) WHAT IT IS High-intensity, constantly changing functional movements. PROS A team mentality and varying workouts get results, says celeb trainer Ashley Borden. CONS “It’s the same at any gym: If you have a bad coach, you can get injured,” Borden says. Be sure to take the introductory course first.
P90X (Beachbody.com/p90x, from $120) WHAT IT IS A high-intensity boot camp-style routine, mixing weight training and martial arts with yoga—also in the comfort of your own home. PROS Cross-training is effective because you’ll work different muscle groups, Borden notes. CONS Injuries. Like with Insanity, check in with a trainer first if you’re new to these moves.
113 calories
Skip two handfuls of chocolate chips.
insanity (Beachbody.com/insanity, from $120) WHAT IT IS Ten workout DVDs, focusing on plyometrics, interval training and core work. PROS “Plyometrics spike your metabolism and lean out your legs,” says Borden. CONS Doing new moves wrong can be risky. “Grab a girlfriend and split a few plyometric sessions with a trainer first,” Borden suggests.
squat challenge (30DayFitnessChallenges.com)
250 calories
WHAT IT IS Daily squats for a month, starting with 50 and building up to 250 reps. PROS It’s super-simple and a great leg workout. CONS Squats should be part of a balanced routine for overall toning; skipping rest days and poor form can lead to injury, Borden says.
Swap your large blended drink for an iced coffee.
must-do move Get arms like these!
BICEP CURLS Adapted from Ashley Borden and Paige AdamsGeller’s Your Perfect Fit
WHAT IT WORKS Your biceps and back—you’ll be ready to rock that strapless or sleeveless dress. WHAT YOU’LL NEED Weights (start with 5- to 10-pounders) HOW TO DO IT Stand with your feet a little more than hipwidth apart and tighten your core. Start with a dumbbell in each hand with your arms down by your sides and your palms facing straight ahead. Contract your biceps and bring your forearms up, so the weights are shoulder height. Slowly lower your arms and repeat 10 times, gradually adding more weight and reps.

have spouse, will travel What’s more romantic than the open road? Taking your favorite passenger (or driver) along for the ride, of course. BY JAMIE JENSEN
SAN FRANCISCO
nevada
CARMEL BIG SUR
california
The Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) winds along the Pacific Ocean for 550 breathtaking miles. People with a fear of heights tend to drive northbound only, so there’s more highway between them and the ocean below. Rent a convertible at the San Francisco International Airport, drive south and in two hours, you’ll be pulling into Carmel, California. (Its beautifully rugged terrain has attracted artists like Ansel Adams and architects like Frank Lloyd Wright, not to mention scores of golfers.) The main beach offers waves for surfing and sand for a romantic picnic. Later, stop at the Point Lobos State Natural Reserve and try to catch a glimpse of playful sea otters or gray whales migrating offshore. Continue on to the 165-room Hearst Castle, built on 127 acres of gardens and terraces, which is now a state park (tours from $25, HearstCastle.org). WHERE YOU SHOULD STAY Clint Eastwood owns Mission Ranch Resort, a beachfront property in Carmel. Although the resident flock of grazing sheep gives it a rustic charm, it has plenty of luxury touches for honeymooners, like in-room whirlpool tubs and fireplaces (from $135, MissionRanchCarmel.com).
1 california coast
Think camping isn’t a honeymoon-worthy activity? Think again. A prime example of “glamping” (aka glamorous camping), the Treebones Resort in Big Sur gives you the great outdoors— postcard-worthy Pacific sunsets and an open-air sushi bar—while providing you with a luxury Mongolian yurt (a fabric tent), complete with electricity and high-thread count sheets to cuddle up in (from $225, TreebonesResort.com). WHERE YOU SHOULD EAT The Flying Fish Bar & Grill in Half Moon Bay has been turning out inventive fusion flavors—like blueberry pork ribs—for the last 20 years (FlyingFishGrill.net). Regulars rave about the crab cioppino, full of locally sourced Dungeness crab.

LAS VEGAS
Start your married life in the wedding capital (Vegas, baby!) and then explore The Wild West together. Head north from Las Vegas to Zion National Park in Utah, with its brilliant cream, pink and red sandstone walls and miles of short trails, then continue to the Grand Canyon. Honeymooners who aren’t avid hikers may want to stick to the Rim Trail, which has access to shade and shuttle bus stops (NPS.gov/grca). Finish at Tlaquepaque, an artsand-crafts village in Sedona, Arizona, and walk the cobblestone streets while browsing galleries for handmade rugs and jewelry. WHERE YOU SHOULD STAY Built in a rustic log cabin-style, the Zion Lodge in Springdale, Utah, has wooden balconies that are a perfect place to split a bottle of wine before dinner and stone fireplaces for cozying up after. Rent bikes in town to easily explore the area (from $186, ZionLodge.com). At The View Hotel in Monument Valley, Utah, every room at the Navajo–owned property enjoys valley views (from $99, MonumentValleyView .com). Sign up for the Wildcat Trail hiking tour, which leads you 900 feet down to the valley’s floor. WHERE YOU SHOULD EAT You only honeymoon once, so why not order the $120 tasting menu at The Eiffel Tower Restaurant in Las Vegas? Think: warm duck foie gras and Camembert (EiffelTowerRestaurant.com). Quench your thirst after traveling at the Oak Creek Brewery & Grill in Sedona, which serves premium beers brewed on-site. Snack on homemade, ale-infused French onion soup (OakCreekPub.com).

The Grand Canyon’s iconic views (top), and the rustic Zion Lodge in Springdale, UT.
Puttering around quaint New England towns makes for a low-key honeymoon (whether it’s a short trip before a longer vacation later or not). Start in artsy Portland, Maine. Then head to Bar Harbor, home to the rugged islands of Acadia National Park, and go whale watching (four-hour tour $48, OdysseyWhaleWatch .com). Drive down to Beantown for a night and take one of the many couples’ cooking classes held at the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts (CambridgeCulinary.com). Continue south to picturesque Cape Cod for shops, galleries and quiet beaches dotted with lighthouses. WHERE YOU SHOULD STAY The Omni Mount Washington Resort, a modernized National Historic Landmark, was once popular with presidents and prime ministers. The New Hampshire hotel now caters to honeymooners with golf and horseback riding ($229, OmniHotels.com/mtwashington). The Chatham Bars Inn, a 100-year-old former hunting and fishing lodge, is set on 25 beachfront acres in Chatham, Massachusetts. Ask about the morning seal-watching cruises ($195, ChathamBarsInn.com). WHERE YOU SHOULD EAT In Portland, the James Beard award-winning kitchen at Fore Street changes its menu daily, but the oven-roasted mussels and spit-roasted pork loin are always available (ForeStreet.biz). Locally lauded crispy fried fish and shellfish are the menu stars at Seafood Sam’s in Falmouth, Massachusetts (SeafoodSams.com).

BEHIND THE SCENES
inside the atelier Get a glimpse of couture designer Johanna Johnson’s Sydney studio and see the dress she designed especially for us! Last season at New York Bridal Fashion Week, we met Johanna Johnson, a new designer based in Australia, and swooned over every one of her wedding gowns. Her collection was the perfect mixture of Gatsby glamour and sexy sophistication. We knew we had to collaborate with her on a wedding dress just for The Knot. “I had a few ideas that I wanted to work on for the Lover’s Knot gown—combining a visual ‘knot’ with our exclusive hand-beaded embellishments and old-Hollywood aesthetic,” Johnson says. After weeks of hand-dying the finest silk satin, designing the intricate beadwork, oxidizing each crystal and crafting the particular way the fabric drapes and falls, Johnson debuted our Lover’s Knot dress in her first runway show at New York Bridal Fashion Week.

I like keeping up with tradition—find a “something blue” and a “something borrowed” that are meaningful to you.

Your best accessory is your groom, but if you need a runner-up, crystal or diamond earrings come a close second.

Amanda New York City Rebecca Walker/Ira Lippke Studios
feminine elegance
Amanda loves mixing classical and modern elements, both in her work as an interior designer and in her own personal style. She drew inspiration from her venue, The New York Public Library—“a classic building in a modern metropolis.” Her elegant-but-chic Vera Wang gown was the perfect mix of old and new, combining a glamorous mermaid silhouette with a dramatic, peplum tulle overskirt, which gave the dress a classic ball gown shape. A tiered cathedral-length veil and a lilac sash completed her day-of look. >>

Rachel San Juan Mountains, CO Brumley & Wells Photography
bohemian rustic
Free-spirited Rachel paired her ivory tulle Catherine Deane gown with brown leather Oxfords and a pair of teal earrings. “The fabric flowed softly around me and billowed wonderfully in the wind,” she recalls of her embroidered dress. “I wanted to be sure that my fiancé would recognize me as the simplebut-quirky Iowa girl he’d always loved, and so I wasn’t too dolled up,” she adds. She wore her hair down and wavy beneath a crown of fresh blooms, light makeup and a subtle shade of pink lipstick. >>

Lenee Sarasota, FL KT Merry Photography
timeless glamour
From the very beginning, Lenee knew she wanted her wedding dress to be three things: sophisticated, timeless and glamorous. The moment she put on her crystal-embroidered sheath gown by Monique Lhuillier, she was sold. For a touch of drama—and to make her feel even more like a bride—she added a watteau train to the back of the structured corset. Wanting to look like herself, Lenee wore her hair in a simple, worry-free updo and accessorized her look with oversized crystal statement earrings.

THE BIG QUESTION Luxury hotels will often provide a professional coordinator to make your day stress-free.
marry where you live PROS “Being able to work with local vendors makes the process more straightforward,” says celebrity event planner Lynn Easton Andrews, owner of Easton Events. Plus, Grandma will be able to easily attend. CONS Being hands-on isn’t always a good thing. Because you can check in frequently with all your vendors, from the florist to the caterer, planning can become a full-time (unpaid!) second job. COST CONCERNS “You’re obligated to invite more people and the likelihood is that your RSVP rate of acceptance will be significantly higher, which of course translates into higher costs,” Andrews notes.

get wed while away PROS “You’ll be able to spend quality time with your friends and family in a beautiful setting,” says event planner JoAnn Gregoli, coauthor (with Carley Roney) of The Knot Guide to Destination Weddings. Plus, it’s easier to keep the guest list in check for an intimate—and possibly less expensive—affair. CONS Micromanagers won’t be able to have complete control over vendors like they might at home. “You’ll have to trust the people you hire,” Gregoli says. COST CONCERNS Some of your guests may be priced out because of travel, and your own budget can balloon due not only to travel costs but also higher prices per head.

find a home for everything When you go shopping, know where you’re going to put an item—whether it’s a piece of furniture or a piece of art— before you bring it home.

how to have a spring wedding This season is prime time for nuptials, and between the warmer weather and beautiful blooms, it’s easy to see why. Here’s what you need to know to throw a gorgeous spring fling. By Kristin Koch
5 reasons to spring for spring
1 everything’s in bloom 2 greater flexibility
A huge variety of stems are in season and easy to get, including peonies, tulips, daffodils and hyacinths. Mother Nature also supplies some of its most beautiful nontraditional décor during spring, like cherry blossoms, dogwood, wheatgrass, herbs and moss.
Daytime parties such as brunch feel more fitting on a sunny spring afternoon than in the dead of winter, offering low-key and budget-friendly reception options. The longer days also make both day and evening events easy to execute.
3 warmer (but not hot) weather 4 more options for your look
Spring’s milder temperatures make a midday outdoor wedding comfortable.
Hemlines can be higher, fabrics lighter and dress codes more low-key. But floor-length gowns and other formal styles will still feel just as appropriate.
5 a spectrum of wedding-worthy hues
K
You’ll have an array of pretty colors, including shades of pink, red, violet, yellow, blue and white, to choose from. Whether you prefer the standard spring pastels or more vibrant combinations, your colors won’t be limited by the time of year. >>

spring style inspiration Translate your nuptial date into your wedding style with a vibe suited to the season.
garden party Play up the abundance of blooms with painterly botanicals carried through from your hand-drawn invitations and runners to your cake. Lush overflowing arrangements accented with fresh greenery will create the feeling of a garden, even if you choose to marry indoors. Tara Gué rard, celebrity wedding planner and owner of Tara Guérard Soirée in Charleston, South Carolina, suggests a fresh combo of soft spring hues: “All my brides today are loving nudes, peaches, creams and champagnes!”
organic sophistication Start with a clean palette with a base of crisp white accented with touches of green, gray or black. Rather than choosing crazy colorful floral arrangements, accent lush greenery with small arrangements of architectural white blooms like tulips and orchids set in ultra-sleek vessels. You can also create a tonal palette with colors like berry pink or mint green, which will feel seasonal but not childish or reminiscent of a garish Easter egg. To keep the look light and springy, bring in a softer shimmer with silver or rose gold (a fresh and fitting alternative for the season).
“From hand-painted paper to bridesmaid dresses, give pastels a modern spin with a pretty watercolor design.” K eclectic elegance Start with a palette of weathered pastels, such as sage, pale peach or blush, and cream, accented with gold or bronze. “Whether you go light or bright with your color scheme, glam up your palette with metallics,” says Lindsay Landman, an event designer and owner of Lindsay Landman Events in New York City. Bring in a mix of whimsical ingredients with a feminine feel, such as toile linens, silhouette motifs on your stationery and pastel Parisian macarons. 277
painted whimsy Give pastels a modern spin with a pretty watercolor design. From hand-painted paper to bridesmaid dresses that recall a Monet painting and even a wedding gown with an ombré blush trim (like Anne Hathaway wore for her 2012 nuptials), the gradiated pattern will give your loft or tented party an artsy-chic feel.
rustic romance
seasonal accents
Modern patterns and motifs, watercolor-inspired bouquets and almost-too-pretty-to-eat French macarons are elegant nods to the season and will show your spring style.
Juxtapose wildflower bunches that combine the freshest springtime blooms in pretty pastels against bare wood tables. Use twinkle lights and an array of candles in varying heights and vessels to create an intimate vibe.
graphic modern For a contemporary mood, take a graphic pattern in a springy palette, like ikat or toile, and let it serve as the motif for your day. The look is fresh and pretty when paired with a rustic wooden table or a dressed-up garden party setting. >>

t he must-have ingredients Tap into the season to create a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind celebration.
a standout spring style Tulips, daffodils and peonies all scream spring, but they aren’t your only option. Seasonal motifs like birds or butterflies can work with a modern theme. An abundance of lush, colorful flowers on a modern grayand-white backdrop will look sophisticated in a loft. And greenery always works.
springtime sips With temperatures rising, drinks that are crisp, cool and refreshing are perfect. • White-wine sangria garnished with fresh lemons and seasonal fruits is a simple signature drink for a loft party. • A Perfect Pear (pear-flavored vodka and St-Germain finished off with strawberries) is an elegant choice that works in a ballroom setting as well as in more casual venues. • Mango, watermelon and other flavored martinis are a cocktail hour favorite, and can coordinate with your wedding colors.

a seasonal spread Consult with your caterer to design a menu that highlights the season, whether by using in-season veggies like asparagus or serving a quail egg on a demitasse spoon for a chic appetizer that references Easter. “Work with, not against, the season for the best ingredients available and, hence, the best menu you can offer your guests,” says celebrity caterer Peter Callahan.

Seasonal Sweets • A white chocolate cheesecake with a rhubarb compote is rich, elegant and even more delightful and festive when served in the form of individual mini-cakes. • A Belgian waffle bar—with fresh whipped cream, berries and melted milk chocolate—is the perfect finish to a delicious brunch celebration. • Classic chocolate-covered strawberries are a sweet addition to any dessert bar, whether appearing at a black tie event or more rustic affair. • A dark chocolate cake filled with strawberry ganache will have crazy-for-cocoa guests raving, and is a tasty alternative to a white cake.
Sticking to flowers that are in-season will give you fresher, more budget-friendly blooms. Daffodils are affordable yet classic and are available in more than a dozen varieties. Sweet peas, hyacinths and lilacs will create spring arrangements with a feminine feel. If understated elegance is more your vibe, look to the royal wedding. For her own spring wedding, Kate Middleton carried a bouquet composed of lilies of the valley (a very popular spring bloom), myrtle, sweet William, hyacinth and ivy. >>

suit up for the season Spring is the time of year to unveil a new wardrobe and shed a few layers, and your wedding attire is no exception.
brides Wedding dresses with feminine touches are popular for spring—from lacy and beaded necklines to airy overskirts, subtle peplum designs and pretty cap sleeves. Complement a spring garden setting with a floral-embellished dress, including embroidered blossoms, 3-D buds or even a floral watercolor print. Preppy details and patterns, like a dress with a pleated bodice or a patterned sash, are less feminine ways to evoke the spirit of the season. Short gowns, ranging from tea-length to mini-dresses, continue to be a big runway trend and feel especially fitting for an afternoon affair. One seasonal factor that will impact choosing a spring wedding gown? Fabric. With temperatures often varying widely between early March and late May, your wedding date should guide the material of your (and your bridal party’s) attire.
grooms and groomsmen A light-colored linen suit would be perfectly apropos, but if a classic tux better suits the tone of your wedding, go for it. Fitted gray suits have a slightly more seasonally appropriate feel than black or navy, and there are tons of shades to choose from, depending on the formality of the wedding: lighter grays for outdoor, rustic weddings and darker charcoal for more upscale settings. Ties, bow ties or pocket squares with a pop of color or a playful pattern like stripes will add a springtime touch to any color jacket. >>

bridesmaids If you love the look of satin dresses but are worried your attendants will be melting in late May, choose a similar style in a more forgiving fabric like a silk blend. Bring in the gorgeous array of seasonal colors with printed bridesmaid dresses, or update traditional pastel dresses with asymmetrical hemlines and necklines. Dressing your attendants in a spectrum of hues can give your party a more dynamic look and works particularly well with springy pastels. For a more sophisticated (and re-wearable) option, consider softer neutrals like shades of gray, nude and tan, or even creams and whites (à la Pippa Middleton).

seasonal setbacks and solutions Knowing how to avoid (or deal with) these obstacles will keep your guests comfortable and ensure your day goes off without a hitch.
the setback: rain Play it safe by having a tent or indoor option on hold. If guests will be walking between different venues, rent tented hallways to provide coverage along the way. For spaces with a flat front, order a canopy and have valet parking (and plenty of umbrellas on hand) to guarantee that guests stay dry.
the setback: afternoon heat If a heat wave hits, hang parasols and fans along the back of chairs for guests to grab, and serve chilled beverages to keep them comfortable and hydrated while they wait for the ceremony to start. Another fun way to keep guests cool: Buy small cold packs, put them in fabric sleeves imprinted with your monogram, and have your ushers hand out the frozen favors (for wrists and the back of necks) with the programs. If your cake will be displayed outside, order one covered in fondant, which holds up better in the heat.
the setback: mud All that rain (or melting snow) combined with warmer temperatures can turn your venue into a muddy mess. Be sure to protect your dress by charging a bridesmaid with holding your train as you walk. If your dress does get muddy, wait until the dirt dries (a blow-dryer can speed up the process) and flick it off. Then use an instant stainremover stick to get rid of any remaining mud. To protect your wedding-day heels (and create a cute photo op), consider wearing wellies and gifting your attendants coordinating rain boots in your wedding colors. If a tent is part of your plan A or B, renting flooring for the entire space can keep the wet spring ground from turning your reception into a mudslide.
the setback: few free weekends One of the drawbacks of marrying during such a popular time is that yours won’t be the only nuptials your guests will be attending. No matter how early you send out save-the-dates, the unfortunate fact of picking a wedding date is that someone will likely have a conflict. That said, a little research can go a long way toward making sure most of your guests are able to attend. Check in with close family and friends for dates to avoid so you can find a weekend that’s more likely to work for everyone, and send out save-the-dates eight to nine months in advance to give guests a head’s up before they plan their schedules.
284
K
the setback: chilly evenings In most parts of the country, nighttime temperatures in the spring can drop into the 50s (or lower), especially in March and early April. Use your wedding website to advise guests, especially out-oftowners, about proper attire for cooler nights. If you’re hosting part of your celebration outdoors or inside a tent, rent portable heaters for when the sun sets. A gracious touch: Set out a basket of pashminas or blankets in your wedding colors.
the setback: spring break If you’re planning on tying the knot in a popular vacation destination, spring breakers can bring fierce competition for rooms and airline tickets, not to mention some unwelcome party crashers during your wedding or honeymoon. Consider booking your event before or after spring break to avoid the throngs. Make sure to block rooms for traveling guests at the same time you book your venue to ensure everyone will have a guaranteed place to stay and nobody will be stuck driving too far. Consider postponing your honeymoon until the college crowds return to class, or at least confirm with the resort that they won’t be hosting any wet T-shirt contests or poolside partiers during your romantic getaway before you book.
the setback: competition for venues and vendors Start planning early and nail down your reception venue and any must-have vendors as soon as you’ve set a wedding date. While transportation may not be among your must-have vendors, white limousines and stretch Hummers are in extra-high-demand during prom and formal season, so book rides for you, your attendants and your guests early too. If you book your wedding on a Friday or any other day of the week besides the traditional choice of Saturday, you may be able to open up many more vendor options, and sometimes receive much better rates.

hen Mackenzie (29 and an interior designer for Aria Design) chose to leave Colorado to spend a college semester studying halfway across the world in Australia, she had no idea she would meet her future husband there— and certainly not two weeks before heading back to the States! For their wedding locale, the couple decided on Hawaii, based on its convenient location between their home countries. Because their entire guest list would be traveling to their exotic wedding destination, Mackenzie and Tim (31 and the founder of Aria Property Group) planned a weekend full of delicious food and unique activities. With the help of their Hawaii– based planner, they put together an elegant, French winery-inspired affair with a color palette of white, creams, peachy pinks and earthy metallics. —Meghan Overdeep

fter a cancer diagnosis at 32, Lanier (35 and a senior director of government affairs) moved to her family’s mountain home in North Carolina to recover after surgery. As she healed, Lanier often went to the nearby Crestwood Resort to watch the sunset. A year later, with the cancer behind her, she met Scott (32 and a ministry director for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes), whom she introduced to her special spot at Crestwood. The day he proposed, they called the venue to ask about availability. “Sharing that place and that sunset meant more to me than I can say,” Lanier says. With their venue settled, the couple created a glam-meets-rustic theme (think: chandeliers, hardwood floors and abundant florals), focused around a compass motif. An organic color scheme of light green, pinks and creams, paired with fun chalkboard details, tied it all together. —MO

So when she started planning her wedding to Ben (31 and a high school teacher), we knew something special was in the works, and her springtime nuptials did not disappoint. The Arizona native used a color palette of oranges, pinks, neutrals and browns with pops of turquoise for her desert destination affair. She created an ombré effect by beginning the day with a muted color scheme of white, greens and browns for the ceremony, before moving to coral and peach for the cocktail hour and ending with a bang—bright pink, orange and turquoise—for the reception. —MO

wedding gowns 101 We know your first priority—finding the (other) one—your dress.
gown silhouette styles empire-waist gown The skirt in this gown style extends from the bustline. It’s a great choice for pear-shaped brides because it disguises the hips.
trumpet gown The skirt in this style flares out just below the hips, creating a semi-full skirt (shaped like the bell of a trumpet) without extra volume and bulk.
mermaid gown This gown is a bit more fitted and flares out at the knee (or lower). It’s a great silhouette for showing off curves.
a-line gown This universally flattering style hugs the torso and has a flared skirt in, you guessed it, an A-shape.
ball gown The ball gown has a fitted bodice and a dramatic full skirt. Busty brides will love this shape because it creates balanced proportions.
sheath This slim, form-fitting silhouette hugs the body from head-to-toe. It’s the perfect look for casual, intimate weddings.

wedding party 101 The least you need to know to coordinate your wedding party’s look.
bridesmaids • For a modern, but still put-together look—pick the color and fabric, but consider letting your bridesmaids choose the neckline and silhouette. • When shopping, bring one or two bridesmaids—maybe the maid who has the body or coloring that’s most similar to the rest of the bridal party, or the maid who is the most difficult to fit. • Ask for your maids’ advice, but make the final decision yourself. You’re the one who knows the big picture—overall look, formality and people’s budgets—best. • The bridesmaids should try to place their orders at the same time to ensure that the dresses will be made from the same dye lot. • Allow three months’ delivery and alteration time for the dresses. • Don’t forget the extras. Should the maids all have the same shoes, jewelry, hairstyles, handbags or wraps? Communicate your desires clearly to your maids. Email works great for this.
sweetheart neckline
scoop neckline
one-shoulder neckline
groom & groomsmen • Brush up on your tuxedo terms and take a peek in your own closet before you begin suit shopping. This will give you an idea of what style you like best—notched or shawl lapel, standard or spread collar. • The groomsmen should dress around the groom. A consistent look is great, but the groom should sport some detail (a boutonniere, tie or pocket square) that differentiates him from the pack. shawl lapel notched lapel
480
• The tuxedo is classic, but consider all your options. Marrying by the beach? Try a more casual jacket and trousers. Having an ultra-formal wedding? Pick a cutaway coat, gray-striped trousers, gray vest and ascot. peaked lapel
flower girls & ring bearers • Flower girls and ring bearers don’t have to match the adults perfectly, but they should certainly fit in with the formality of the event. The only exception: Tuxedos aren’t necessary (and may not be available) for tykes under six. Our trick—substitute a black suit and a bow tie. • Be sure to dress your flower girl or ring bearer appropriately for their age. Strapless or halter dresses may be too sophisticated for the little ones (even with a cardigan), while overly froufrou tulle dresses might not look right on, say, a 10-year-old.
• Should you rent or buy? If you don’t attend many formal events or if your weight is frequently in flux, renting may be the way to go. If you’ll have three or four more good uses for a tux, the suit will pay for itself.

E co-Chic where to go
Benguerra Island, Mozambique Why go there If you’re searching for something more romantic than the busy beaches of Kenya, you’ll love this remote island. The breathtaking white sand beaches and lack of other tourists make this the ideal destination for some quality alone time. Part of the Bazaruto Archipelago, the entire island chain is a national park, and a portion of your hotel fees go to conservation efforts for local animals like the dugong, a threatened mammal similar to a manatee.
Where to stay For some of the best beach views on the island, book a casita (little house) at andBeyond Benguerra Island, which has the perfect blend of safari-chic and warm, Arabian style. Each villa has a private deck, plunge pool and an outdoor dining gazebo for romantic starlit dinners. And you’ll be doing good too: the hotel provides land, materials and expertise to the community to grow vegetables. Brides get 50 percent off on honeymoon stays (from $510 per person, andBeyond.com). Another popular resort on Benguerra is Azura, which consists of beachside villas that are built using locally sourced wood and come with butler service. The latter amenity is priceless if you decide to do last-minute sunset cocktails. The hotel offers brides a 40 percent discount in 2014. All meals and house drinks are included. Enjoy a private dinner on the beach served under the stars and lit by the glow of tiki torches. On your last night, a honeymoon turndown means your bed will be covered in rose petals for a romantic end to your trip (from $525 per person, Azura-Retreats.com).

WHAT TO DO Schedule a ridiculously romantic sunset cruise on your personal dhow (a traditional sailboat) and enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail as you watch the sky turn jaw-dropping shades of pink. Or, if you like your nautical outings to be a bit more adventurous, charter a boat to Two Mile Reef, just off the coast of Benguerra Island. This barrier reef represents the best of both worlds for marine enthusiasts: the most famous snorkeling spot in the archipelago on the inside, accurately dubbed The Aquarium, and adventurous scuba dives on the seaward side. WHERE TO EAT You won’t have to travel far for terrific dining options—the only restaurants on the island are located at the hotels. Both have Portuguese– and Mozambique–inspired fare, and Azura’s house restaurant, Jelly Fish, has a seven-course tasting menu. When in doubt, order any seafood dish or help yourself to a serving of tropical fruit. The country is especially well known for its big, juicy prawns and succulent crab and crayfish.
WHAT TO PACK Don’t forget your Mozambique visa ($82; purchase before entering or upon arrival at the airport), and be sure to visit the Mozambique embassy’s website (Embamoc-usa.org) for the latest visa requirements. In addition, pack insect repellent, sunscreen and antimalarial medication in your carry-on. Planning to do a safari on the mainland before your island retreat? Bring a soft bag from Filson (large duffel bag, $358, Filson.com); some safari lodges forbid hard-shells. >>

Cap Rocat, a 19th-century fortress, is perfect for history buffs. And we promise you’ll fall in love with Mallorca’s aweinspiring coastline.

All-Out Glam where to go
Mallorca, Spain Why go there Just as sexy, but less crowded and rowdy, than sister island, Ibiza, Mallorca is one of Europe’s premier vacation destinations for jet-setters—tennis star Rafael Nadal was born there and owns a home on the island—because of its simply stunning coastline. Limestone cliffs plunge into crystal-clear blue waters for the entire length of its western and northern edges. This vibrant Spanish island is perfect for sophisticated couples craving a little of everything, including superb sightseeing, diverse shopping, inventive restaurants and an active nightlife.
Where to stay The Cap Rocat is a 19th-century fortress (bunkers and drawbridge intact) turned into an adults-only boutique hotel overlooking the Bay of Palma. The building’s former shooting pads, with a commanding view of the bay, have been converted into 21 suites with private terraces (from $619, CapRocat.com). Convent de la Missió in Palma’s Old Town also had a former life—as a mission—but now has a modern, minimalist vibe (from $219, ConventdelaMissio.com). It’s five minutes from Palma’s main shopping drag, where you can pick up handbags from Spain’s signature luxury leather brand Loewe and ready-to-wear fashions from a joint collection with Japanese designer Junya Watanabe. What to do Drive to Cap de Formentor, Mallorca’s most breathtaking stretch of coastline. Jagged cliffs jut into the sea, attracting nesting seabirds and thrill-seeking honeymooners taking pictures from lookout points along the steeply winding road. Or visit Quesada in Palma, which has been selling traditional Mallorcan top right: thinkstock

patterned textiles called roba de llengües since 1890. The Mallorca Wine Express Finca tour’s wine train shuttles you to renowned wineries offering vino paired with cheese and charcuterie. The grand finale is a sit-down dinner at a family-owned Finca estate, a small winery which has been producing wine for three centuries. Traditional stone-oven cooked lamb, raised on premises, is served among the barrels at the private vineyard (about $130 per person, MallorcaWineTours.com). Then, book your flight home out of Barcelona and spend a day or two browsing goods from Spain’s best-known designers, including Custo Barcelona, Desigual and family-run operations like famed espadrille and sandal shop La Manual Alpargatera. WHERE TO EAT Ice cream parlor Sa Fàbrica de Gelats is a Mallorcan institution and its frozen concoctions are sold all over the island. Pick and choose from around 40 locally sourced flavors. Anything made with the island’s amazing oranges, including the ice cream and hand-squeezed juice, is a must-try.
WHAT TO PACK Take a cue from the locals and stash a large, colorful printed scarf in your carry-on. It can multitask as a beach cover-up, a wrap at dinner or provide a pop of color against a white tee while sightseeing. Fashion designer Chris Benz, model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Jessica Alba and Gwyneth Paltrow all fly with ultra-light, ultra-hip polycarbonite Rimowa wheeled luggage (Salsa Air Ultralight, $475, Zappos.com). >>

Cartagena is a romantic blend of old-world architecture and cutting-edge nightlife.

your style
Culture Vulture where to go
C artagena, Colombia Why go there If you adore architecture, are die-hard foodies or love music, you’ll see why Latin and European socialites are flocking to Colombia en masse. Cities like Cartegena and Bogota have become dramatically safer in recent years, with drug-trafficking related violence relegated primarily to rural areas. The Cartagena’s restored colonial mansions, innovative fusion restaurants and tropical music-tinged nightlife are perfect if you prefer a spicier first trip as a married couple than a beautiful beach alone can provide (although the latter can be perfect in our opinion too!).
Where to stay The Sofitel Legend Santa Clara lies inside the walls of the old city and is within walking distance of the beach and historic sites, such as the home of Nobel Laureate Gabriel García Márquez—avid readers will remember the city from his writing. Book the whimsically named “So in Love” package that includes breakfast in your room or in the restaurant, a bottle of sparkling wine, a welcome bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates to sweeten your stay (from $385, Sofitel-Legend.com). At the nearby Casa San Agustín, old-world charm collides with modern creature comforts. You’ll feel like you’re staying in a private colonial residence, but will enjoy luxurious in-room amenities like Frette sheets. Techies will love the complimentary iPads for use in the guest rooms. Choose the “Romancing Cartagena” package and it includes a private dinner for two on your room terrace or in the Solarium, a bottle of champagne served with petit fours, a rose bouquet and in-room breakfast (from $400, HotelCasaSanAgustin.com). >>

WHAT TO DO At sunset, cuddle up in a horse-drawn taxi for a quick jaunt across the historic walled district, a Unesco World Heritage site, and enjoy the mild ocean breeze. The 300-year-old Spanish buildings, brick streets and wandering guitarists provide a perfect setting for a romantic ride. Visit the shops on Calle Santo Domingo and Calle San Juan de Dios and check out the highly embellished items by local designer Silvia Tcherassi. Think dramatic fringe, flowing fabrics and high-impact accessories. After you’ve explored the churches and fortresses of this ancient neighborhood, head to the Museo del Oro y Arqueología, a small gold museum that also showcases local pottery. WHERE TO EAT Have lunch or dinner at La Vitriola, a 400-year-old colonial home converted into a flatteringly lit seafood restaurant— seriously, you’ll feel like you’re in your own rom-com, with the emphasis on the romance. Order the filete de mérou Don Román— Thai-spiced grouper with chiles and tamarind—or the teriyaki octopus, and savor it as live Cuban music wafts through the air.
WHAT TO PACK Stash a bikini (or two) from fashion editor favorite Lisa Marie Fernandez, a former New York City stylist who knows how to make women’s bodies look their best (Natalie bandeau bikini, $300, Shop. LisaMarieFernandez.com). Crafted from a luxe variety of neoprene fabrics, the material manages to create curves, smooth trouble spots and provide support all at once.

antigua 10 things you need to know K Antigua sits smack-dab in the center of the Caribbean Islands. 1 2 The island has 366 chalky white public beaches. Some of the best include Dickenson Bay (for restaurant-hopping and people-watching) and Half Moon Bay (for windsurfing). 3 Escape to Barbuda, an island only 25 miles north of Antigua, and check out its 17 miles of beach, the bird sanctuary and the coral reefs. 4 The Antiguan climate is one of the most idyllic in all of the Caribbean, thanks to constant sea breezes and trade winds. The hot season runs from May to November.
