Breathtaking Lake Como Wedding

January 7, 2015 | Junebug Weddings

Lake-Como-Elopement-Rochelle-Cheever-32

An elopement in a beautiful location is exactly what we needed on this early Wednesday morning. The views of Sing-Pey and Michael’s Lake Como wedding are simply breathtaking, all thanks to the talents of photographer Rochelle Cheever. Sing-Pey’s extravagant Vera Wang dress looks incredibly glamorous as the pair venture around the waterfront town. The light was soft and dreamy as the newlyweds hopped on a boat for a romantic ride.

The Couple: Sing-Pey and Michael

The Wedding: Lake Como, Italy

The Inspiration: “We wanted to mark the beginning of our marriage with an intimate elegant celebration that was simply another step in our journey, rather than a grand statement. We fell in love with Italy when we first visited there early in our relationship, and knew that we would like to return as part of our wedding celebrations. Lake Como was a simply perfect choice for its stunning scenery, laid-back atmosphere and delicious food!

The Moments:Arriving at Villa Balbianello by boat, and wandering around the grounds in my wedding dress accompanied by my handsome husband in black-tie. The scenery was spectacular, and I truly felt like we had stepped into a fairytale! The moments spent on the boat between Varenna, Bellagio and Villa Balbianello were also great fun as we joked around and the wind wreaked havoc on my veil!

The Couple Recommends: “Our wedding photographer Rochelle Cheever was absolutely amazing. She was warm and professional, and corresponding with her despite being in different countries was so effortless. Best of all, her photographs are stunning! We are so delighted to have found her, and am pleased that we will have photographs that we will treasure for a lifetime.

Winter Wedding Inspiration from Quebec

January 6, 2015 | Junebug Weddings

IMG_1121

Cozy up with a mug of hot cocoa and settle into this breathtaking winter wedding inspiration. As this styled shoot shows, winter weddings are the perfect time to use classic pops of color to create contrast against the dark winter landscape. We love the use of pomegranates — a totally trending fruit for table decor — to tie together the vibrant red in the bride’s bouquet. Photographer Kymberlie Dozois beautifully captured the essence of Sarah Alexandra‘s impeccable event design. Here’s a few words from Sarah about the inspiration behind the shoot:

When creating the design for the shoot, the bare limbs of Canada’s wintery trees gave me the inspiration for an arcane, mysterious shoot. I envisioned the use of darker hues like deep plum, cranberry and mustard with a woodsy feel, while still keeping an intimate and romantic feeling. I’ve always been partial to copper and brass and I love how it lit up the rest of the palette. It was quite important for me to find a real couple for the session, as real chemistry and intimacy is hard to mimic. Ashley & Greg got married last summer and I loved every second of working with them. It felt so authentic, and it shows through in the images. Many of the artists involved in this shoot are quite new to the business, myself included; I loved giving others a platform to showcase their talent! With this shoot, I hope to inspire readers to go for the unexpected and make great discoveries.
