What works fashion wise for that trek down the aisle?
"1. Feeling comfortable in your appearance is incredibly important. If you feel comfortable with the way you look, you will radiate the most confidence."
 |
| Brittany Baldwin married Mitchell Clough at the Palazzo Versace on the Gold Coast. Their Real Wedding features in The Bride's Gown Look Book. She radiates confidence on her special day! |
"2. Determine what kind of wedding you are having. The volume, silhouette, proportions, amount of adornment, tailoring and other elements of the dress should have a lot to do with not only where you have your wedding, but what time of day it is being held and what the temperature is. The dress is not only about how it looks on your body."

"3. It's really important to see the whole look - the dress, the headpiece, the size of the bouquet and the shoes. I would go so far as to include the makeup. A lot of girls put a tremendous amount of effort into the dress, but they don't give a lot of thought to the headpiece, tiara, barrettes or other accessories. Very often they are an afterthought."

"4. Go easy on the bouquet. Bouquets that are too large or too loud will detract from the dress."
 |
| Katie and Matt - The Secret Garden Such an intricate dress of beauty subtly complimented by the bouquet! |
"5. Hem lengths are very key. You have to make sure you don't see the shoes. The dress should definitely be floating above in the front. If it is too long in front, it's treacherous. In order to make a wedding a success, the bride should not have to lift the dress. Someone tripped in my most recent show. It can be a particularly long walk down the aisle."

| Natasha and Paul Cooper featured as a Real Wedding in our The Brides Gown Look Book. Natasha negotiated the stairs out of the church with no trouble at all ! |
"6. Makeup is another thing to think about. I'm not crazy about strong red lipstick with a white dress. If you never wear blue eyeshadow or purple eyeshadow or glitter, why wear it on your wedding day? You want to avoid any makeup that makes you look disguised or that makes you no longer look like yourself. That is huge. It should be the same with the hair. Sometimes stylists can get too elaborate with hair styles and colours. Wearing hair accessories and bobby pins are very much about editing."
 |
| Hannah and Rhys Clark featured as a Real Wedding in The Brides Gown Look Book Her makeup is professionally applied and accentuates her natural beauty! |
"7. I have to say I prefer a shoe on the quieter side whether it is a fashion shoe (though it doesn't have to be) or something with a bit of a wedding feeling. I like a shoe with a tapered toe box. I'm not someone who is into a full-on Swarovski-covered glittery shoe. I don't think you want that much attention. A little kitten heel is nice if you are marrying someone shorter than you, or a platform if you are marrying someone taller."

"8. It is just as important to have black-and-white photography done as it is to have colour. Black and white is chic and timeless."
 |
| Leonie and Chris Davenport featured as a Real Wedding in our Autumn 2012 Issue 20 digital magazine Black and white is chic and timeless! |
"9. Step into your dress whether it is large or narrow. There are things no one can compensate for. I once had a bride get red lipstick on the front of her dress when she pulled it on over her head. Keep anyone with colourful drinks, beverages or makeup away from you."
 |
| May and Adrian Wong featured as a Real Wedding in our Autumn 2012 Issue 20 digital magazine May is carefully helped into her gown by her bridesmaid so as to not disturb the gorgeous hair do. |
"10. Savour the moment. There's a tendency when people get married to rush down the aisle as soon as the ceremony has ended. I'm not sure if it's relief or what. But you have to remember the guests have spent most of the time looking at your back during the service. So much work goes into planning. Take your time when walking back down the aisle. Let them see the dress."

Great advice! Thanks Vera!
