3 steps to your
urban summer wedding #3
Bridal couple styling
In the third and final article of “3 steps to your urban summer wedding summer wedding”, everything now finally revolves around the bridal couple styling for him and her. An important point, if not the most important, which you should not forget under any circumstances. Look forward to a modern and alternative bridal styling and a matching, urban styling for the groom.
Wedding dresses for the urban wedding style
A light, airy summer wedding dress goes very well with an urban summer wedding. What you should definitely pay attention to when choosing a dress is, that it is not too over the top. Lots of tulle or glitter don’t suit the urban wedding style. The dress is rather simple, but by no means boring and still elegant and unique. Dresses with thin straps, back neckline or long sleeves fit very well and are often seen in urban wedding dress styling . styling and are ideal for a summer wedding. What always works are style breaks. Sounds worse than it is, I know. But a leatheror denim jacket combined with a light dress or trainers instead of high heels go well with the urban style.
It doesn’t always have to be a classic wedding dress as you would imagine. As in this example in the picture, the wedding dress consists of two parts; a lace body and a simple skirt. But what ‘s even better, this look can be quickly and easily transformed into a second look. Instead of the skirt, put on a pair of light and elegant trousers. So you have 2 wedding looks in one. I’ ll show you this in a moment.
Trousers instead of wedding dress
As mentioned above , you can conjure up two different looks from this wedding look. The wedding dress consists of two parts. A lace body and a simple skirt. In the second look, the skirt is replaced by light and airy trousers. This gives you the opportunity to wear two different looks at the same wedding.
For the wedding ceremony, for example, you can wear the lace body with the skirt and then wear the trousers for the party in the evening.
This trend can also be seen more and more in bridal fashion shops or fashion shows, as brides are opting for a jumpsuit or a two-piece with trousers. It ‘s modern and an alternative to the classic wedding dress and that’ s exactly what characterises the urban wedding style. Being open to new things and wearing something that not every bride wears.
Modern / alternative bridal styling for urban weddings
Hair
There are different looks that go well with urban hair styling. Some like it open, others prefer it closed. In my opinion , both looks work very well for an urban summer wedding. For the wedding ceremony, for example , a loose messy bunbun with a few strands falling out at the front works very well. It looks done up, but not too severe or too well behaved. A little detail, like the hair jewellery in the picture give the look even more elegance, but in no way makes the look look kitschy. An open look is perfect for the party. Straight or wavy hair that falls lightly over the bride ‘s shoulders, as if a summer breeze had just blown through her hair look beautiful. You can also combine details such as a brooch or a flower wreath with this look. Especially for an urban summer wedding , a lovely floral wreath looks very casual and modern looks very casual and modern and is a real eye-catcher.
Jewellery
Less is more in urban wedding style. We’ ve already heard this about the decorations and flowers. This also applies to jewellery. More discreet and rather less jewellery, which is all the more effective. A fine necklace with matching earrings (small studs or hanging earrings) and a bracelet will suffice. What also counts as jewellery is, for example, a hair brooch as shown in the picture with the hairstyling or another accessory for the hair. You can find more inspiration on my Pinterest board Wedding jewellery.
Groom styling in urban wedding style
Now let’s move on to the groom’s styling. When choosing the perfect suit for an urban summer wedding summer wedding, the first thing I would pay attention to is the materials. In summer, temperatures can easily rise above 30 degrees. This is when air-permeable and breathable fabrics made from yarns, linen, silk, mohair wool or cotton are particularly suitable. There is no ruleas to which colour is the right one for the suit. For a summer wedding , however, I would choose a lighter colour such as blue, beige or grey. Checked or patterned suits also go well with the urban wedding style. What I personally would definitely leave out is the waistcoat. This is less suited to the urban style and is almost too much, especially for a summer wedding.
Accessories
You can really spice up the look with accessories. That’s why I would go for a coloured or patterned bow tie or tie. It is important to make sure that it matches the suit and the overall look and is not too much. Braces are another suitable accessory for the groom. This creates a modern look and looks super casual without a jacket, especially in summer. When choosing the colour of the shoes , I would match them to the suit. Brown or black shoes always go well. Coloured or patterned socks make for an eye-catching look and can be used deliberately and appropriately. For more inspiration , I have my own Pinterest board for urban groom styling.
