The moment I laid eyes on this bridal shower by Essential Wedding Design I became instantly and absolutely enamored. It is sweet, sweet enchantment through and through from the glittering table settings to the flirty and romantically styled bride and bridesmaids right up to their delightfully coifed hair. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything more charming! You’ll be in for the sweetest of treats if you go over to the full gallery!

From Trish of Essential Wedding Design… Elegant bridal showers in Australia are yet to become commonplace. It’s all too common to see the same games played, the same activities organized and food and decorations set out no differently from ’90s bridal showers. I want to see bridesmaids setting a standard of real bridal elegance and beauty, in such ways as the styling, the themes and the decor. So in designing this styled shoot, I wanted to demonstrate this class through the color scheme, the dessert table and sitting table layout and styling, the dress code and the hair accessories and jewelery. The decor’s beauty was only magnified by the girls, who looked stunningly beautiful, glowing and happy.

Absolutely gorgeous! Love the lace. Love the cakes. Love the cupcakes. Love the hairpieces. It's all beautiful. Well done.
What a gorgeous idea! Love that it's dripping in crystals. Anything sparkly wins in my book!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!
So pretty.... where are the dresses from ????
@Claire: I've sent an email to Trish to find out about the jewelry. Hopefully we'll hear back soon. Thanks for reading!
Very beautifully put together shoot!!
Awesome shoot!
@Claire: So it sounds like the girls all owned their own dresses prior to the shoot, but Trish says that, funnily enough, they're all from Forever New over the past few years. I hope that helps, and thanks for reading!

Hm, kind of small bridal shower. I love how photojournalistic coverage of a bridal shower is a viable service to be provided.
I absolutely loved the idea of the wedding shower in the woods. Everything looks so romantic and enchanting. The pretty white dresses and vintage jewellery complements the green foliage perfectly. Very Alice in Wonderland.
