De Alma e Coração | You May French Kiss The Bride

When I first got this submission, I remained skeptical: what could this possibly have to do with weddings?! I started discussing about it with the team, who told me: “We want to show people that a wedding need not be what they think it should be.” OK right, it looks we’re on the same page… What did I miss? “We decided to organize this dinner to show that a wedding can be as simple as having soup for dinner with some friends.”, they added. Now that’s BRILLIANT! In other words—for those who would still be skeptical—it’s kind of a styled shoot, but more about the concept of the wedding than the choice of flowers (hate those). I hope many of you future brides and grooms will find it inspiring!

So, what do you think of a botanical or garden themed wedding? What about using plant shoots and vegetables to decorate your tables? All credits: De Alma e Coração.

And, there’s a video. :)

I love circus weddings! I suppose you remember Lauren and James’? Well, Filipa and Nikis’ is, although based on the same theme, a whole lot different. It’s been thought by a Portuguese team called “De Alma e Coração” which means With Soul and Heart, and the word team is in this case fully appropriate: they have designers, photographers and videographers, in other words, all you need for a wedding. I am more than happy that they contacted me, and I won’t give any suspense here, there’s going to be more of them soon! In the meanwhile, I let you discover the pictures of a very perfect wedding (don’t miss the kids’ table, with all the small animals on it). Parabéns Filipa e Niki!

Filipa and Niki wanted a wedding “where everybody would have fun, that would not be dictated by the standards”…
