It’s one thing to be able to take some pretty pictures, but it’s a whole other thing to be able to make things look pretty in real life! I was recently lucky enough to work with a team of lovely ladies who have just this talent! Julianne Smith of The Garter Girl (definitely check out her wedding garters – they are a must have!) invited me to join a team to produce an entry for the Inspired Creations Contest by Elizabeth Anne Designs. Shelly Steitz, an amazing stylist (check out her fantastic blog, Going Vogue!) and Stephanie Ward, the absolutely inspired creator of Punk Rock Bride’s fabulous wedding dresses, helped to arrange these gorgeous combinations of lingerie, garters and bridal accessories. We hope these images might help to inspire you to have a little fun selecting all of the accessories for your wedding day. And if you feel the sudden urge to run out and grab up some of these lingerie pieces for yourself, you can find them all at Coup de Foudre in Georgetown.
A special thanks goes out to the folks at my favorite lunch place, Taylor Gourmet on H St, for their fantastic reclaimed wood plank walls, featured as a backdrop in some of these shots. These are just a few of my favorites, but be sure to check out our Inspired Creations Contest entry here (and don’t by shy – make a comment!).
