UK based wedding blog Rock n Roll Bride is all about helping couples planning their weddings find their ” individuality and general awesomeness” – a mission we fully believe in! We asked the fabulous blogger Kat Williams, the rock n roll bride herself, about some of her favorite blog posts from the last few years, and she came up with some truly great ones! Take a look…
How to … Pose in Your Wedding Photographs – What to Do (& What Not to Do):This post was surprisingly controversial! I wanted to show the brides that read my blog a few simple tips to help them feel more comfortable when having their engagement or wedding photos taken. The brides that read it loved it and Ive had a number of emails since from girls that used the tips on their wedding day. That was hugely rewarding.
Emma & Pete’s “Enchantment Under the Sea Dance” & A Big Fat Suprise Wedding: One of my best friend’s weddings. Emma Case is a wedding photographer herself so when she told me she was having a surprise wedding on her 30th birthday I nearly died with excitement! I was an honour to be at the wedding as well as to feature their amazing photos afterward.
Today we get to see some top wedding blog posts from blogger Jen Campbell of Green Wedding Shoes, whose passion for sharing creative wedding ideas, fun DIY projects and weddings with that special Southern California charm is evident with just one peek at her beautiful blog. We know well how much these great blog posts can inspire not only the readers, but the bloggers too, and choosing favorites can be next to imposible! When we asked Jen about sharing her own favorites with us, she said just just what we’d expect from such a dedicated blogger. “It’s so hard to pick 5 favorites, but these are 5 that I won’t ever forget…”
An Old World Carnival Wedding:One of my most favorite weddings! The couple really did something different and created an amazing day that none of their guests or themselves would ever forget! Love the dance floor with the upside down umbrellas and their ceremony location. The couple’s family played a big role in helping them pull off their dream wedding.
A Bohemian DIY Wedding:Love the beautiful photos and the overall bohemian vibe of this wedding. The location is breathtaking and goes to show that with a gorgeous location, you don’t need to do much else as far as details. I think this wedding has my favorite bridal party attire – and love her peony bouquet! :) If I had the chance to do over my wedding, I’d want it to look similar to this one.
Rustic Outdoor Wedding with Cotton Details:Such a beautiful venue and love all the cotton and other organic details for this wedding. Totally different + unique! Gorgeous photography + a gorgeous couple doesn’t hurt either!
Spanish Wedding Inspiration:This was a fun feature inspired by this inspiration board I created. Bringing together some talented vendors and a killer venue, we were able to bring these ideas to life to show brides how an inspiration board translates into a wedding. This Modern Romance captured the most beautiful photos and I still get emails every week from brides saying this is the inspiration for their wedding!
Underwater Engagement Photos:This couple took their engagement photos underwater then used them to create a one-of-a-kind “We’re taking the plunge!” save the date! One of the most unique + creative save the dates I’ve seen!
Now that our birthday month is over, we’re on to all the excitement that the future holds… and if you’re anything like me (obsessed with a comfortable and luxurious bed!) you’ll be very excited about today’s amazing giveaway!

And, since we spent July looking back at all the fun weddings and wedding ideas we’ve featured on Junebug over the past 5 years, we thought that a great way to welcome in August would be to ask our fellow wedding bloggers what some of their favorite post have been on their own blogs! Wedding blogs hardly existed when we began Junebug back in 2006, but as the blogging community has grown we’ve loved that we’ve found so many true friends in our fellow bloggers, and we’re very proud to have been part of this creative growing industry from the get-go.
All this week we’ll bring you favorite posts from just a few of the talented wedding bloggers out there, and today we begin, of course, with Harmony Walton and her personal favorites from The Bridal Bar Blog…
A wedding at The London Hotel: This wedding encompasses such fantastic personal style and flair, without the couple feeling the need to recreate every trend they find on a blog. The bride shows off her sophisticated side and sense of fun and whimsy at the same time that paired with exceptional photography and her infectious smile made this wedding a stand out to me.
Wedding in New Delhi: This wedding had such vibrant colors, such culture, and such beauty that we gave it a weeks worth of posts. With several days of exotic ceremonies and breathtaking décor, how could we not love it? Here are links to all 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 posts!
The Rescue Train Gift of Love Program: This post was announcing a new non-profit program offering couples the ability to register to save animals and give donations in lieu of wedding favors. It reminds me that the blog, these posts, and the wedding industry as a whole is bigger than itself and can be used to create change and impact lives in a positive way. Its also a campaign thats dear to my heart, so its definitely a favorite.
Tom Cruise Wedding Post: This post was uploaded in our very first month of blogging back in 2006 and it marked a special milestone in our business so while its not as interesting to the reader, I love that it reflects our history and how our blog, as small and albeit poorly constructed at the time, marked a special moment for us that we can now forever look back on.
A Disneyland Engagement Session: Why is this post a favorite? Well, because anything Disney is a fave of mine! And the couple had fun with their engagement session, didnt take themselves or the wedding process too seriously, and they created photos that while themed, arent too overly styled so they can look back and love them for a lifetime to come (I have a feeling their kids one day will love these too)!
