clara on May 3rd 2008 Wedding Planning
A good photographer is of major importance both during and after your event; you should choose it carefully to avoid any disappointment.
You would want someone that can relax you while shooting and can establish a good connection with your guests to make sure that they enjoy being photographed and look natural in the pictures.
Listed below are a few tips that might help you shortlist the most talented ones:
- Bored with the usual cheesy shots? Search beyond wedding photographers if you are looking for cool and stylish images. Many fashion and lifestyle photographers can normally be hired for important events as well…and what is more important than your special day? Fashion photographers are great when it comes to portraits of you getting ready and walking around in your gorgeous wedding gown…lifestyle ones are ideal for parties and their pictures are bound to reflect the magic atmosphere of your reception!
- Do not splash on decoration while saving on a photographer by trusting the ability of friends and family (unless they are professionals). The photos are the only lasting memories of your day, you will be sharing them with your children and grandchildren in the years to come and you just want them to be perfect. Top photographers do charge a lot for a reason…years and years of experience that provided them with a great eye and the ability to play with the light.
- Search the Internet to come up with an initial list of names, look at their websites and pick the ones that grab your attention. Contact them, ask them to send you their portfolio and prices but most importantly meet them in person to test the chemistry you have with them.

valentina on Apr 3rd 2008 Bridal Gowns
During the preview of the 2008/2009 Domo Adami collection we met the italian designer and stylist Mauro Adami in his studio in Milan to talk about the new trends in the world of wedding gown fashion.
- What do you think about the new trendy Winter Wedding?
I think that is a pleasant solution for bridegrooms that want an emotional wedding.
Winter light is smooth deeply emotional full of intimate suggestions.
Every decoration can be studied in every single detail and there are much more availability of venues and creative assistance.
- Can you explain us your Fall/Winter collection? It is sophisticated and very feminine…
I wished realizing a gown collection that would be smooth and light with embroideries that gently lay on wiggly fabrics. The true innovative issue is on accessories, the real central characters of the collection. There are many new proposals: organza matching boleros with ruches and voile or georgettes to dress up gowns adding a touch or charm and romanticism. There are also plumes and furs on the stoles and veils enriched by laces with modern and inedited tailor cuts. Moreover you will see details for practical but elegant hair solutions to complete bride’s style of next collection preview 2008-2009.
- We noticed that your winter collection is very versatile; even if the gowns have a clear winter connotation they could be worn in every other season…
I’d say that this is a special dedication to the eternal seasons of love…Cold is a personal circumstance; emotion of style is my mission.
- What will be next Spring Summer collection style?
For Spring 2008 I propose my new satin wiggly lines with transparencies and charming details such as necklines and bijoux. The romantic part is filled of fabric particulars such as laces, tulles, taffetas for elegant gowns, the “new traditional” for the bride who likes cathedral style.
