The Soup

Botanical Wedding Inspiration

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.

Teele + Mart

A Yellow Deep-Dyed Wedding Dress and a Gigantic Letter

I know I shouldn’t be saying that yet, but this wedding is totally making it to my best of 2013 selection. You know that sensation, when you get goosebumps, start feeling a lump in your throat and then stupidly want to cry a little bit? Well I felt that. Three times. First when I saw the post on Stina’s blog, second when she allowed me to blog it, and then finally when I was preparing this post. Not that it’s particularly emotional, it’s just goddamn beautiful! Ready for another incredible series of pictures by Stina Kase?

The wedding happened on July, 7th 2012, in Tallinn Old Town (on the roof of the Estonian Maritime Museum “Paks Margareta”) and then later at the coastal village “Salmistu”, both located in Estonia. Believe it or not, this is a DIY wedding; everything, from the concept to the smallest detail—check out this deep-dyed dress and those badges on the tables with the names of all the guests—were thought by the bride and the groom. Huge congrats to them for doing so well, for the consistency and for their choices of location (venue is definitely everything). Anyone planning her wedding right now: flight these guys out of Estonia to do it for you. And tell them to bring Stina with them. :)

 Regarding the wedding, name one thing you regret…

Everything went well, but we forgot small vodka glasses, so who wanted to drink vodka, had to drink it from wine glasses. :)

…And one thing you’re really proud of / happy about.

We are proud that our guests have good memories and stories from that day.

Louisa + Eskil

Simple Swedish Wedding in Gotland with Old Carts

Many times, people try to do something unique for their wedding. But it happens sometimes that the persons that the most should enjoy the day—bride & groom—, just don’t seem to. I fell in love with Louisa and Eskil’s wedding in Gotland from the very moment I discovered it: original yet simple ideas, and above all, ideas that seem to perfectly correspond to the bride and groom. Photography credit: 2 Brides Photography, from Sweden.

The wedding took place in Gotland, Sweden.
