O U R FAV O R I T E M U S T- H AV E W E D D I N G T R E N D S

Casual creativity is taking the wedding industry by storm in 2020. From intimate backyard gatherings, self-serve bars, to late-night snacks from fast food favorites like Whataburger, we have all of the details!

1. FRAMED BACKDROPS Say goodbye to traditional arches and say hello to open frame concepts!

From circles, geometric shapes, triangles, to multiple framed rectangles, open frame backdrops are all the rage. Add in florals or draping to add that perfect elegant touch!

2. ON THE GROUND “FOCAL” PIECES Floral arrangements are not just for ceremony backdrops or centerpieces.

In 2020 we are seeing them make their way to the ground at the ends of tables and the edge of guests seats down the aisle. These make for great “focal” pieces and add a more unanticipated element. No need for a vase- having them look as if they are planted gives for a more relaxed and causal vibe.

3. LATE-NIGHT SNACKS Fast food may be the last thing you think you would see at a wedding reception. But think again! Unique food twists at the end of night leaves a lasting impression on guests.

Personalize the experience by serving the meal in a Whataburger bag with personalized stickers with your wedding date, and a phrase like “What-A-Night”!

5. SELF-SERVE BARS The food truck trend has been around for a couple of years already, but mobile vendors don’t just stop at food in 2020! Self-serve bars are a fun, refreshing alternative to the traditional cocktail bar. Since guests can help themselves, this gives for a more fun, casual experience and reduces those long lines at the bar!

4. STYLISH BOUQUETS Traditional bouquets are a thing of the past! Putting bouquets inside bags, wreath bouquets, lanterns, or fans with florals are just a few options that add for that unexpected surprise!

6. GRAZING TABLES

7. CASUAL & INTIMATE

Upscale charcuterie boards, known as grazing tables or feasting tables are great for creating an informal vibe at your wedding. Whether you offer grazing tables as a cocktail hour option or replace the main course with a family-style spread, this is a fun alternative for your guests.

Casual celebrations are just as beautiful as a larger event. From lining your aisle with vintage rugs and seating your guests at picnic tables to serving unexpected treats that you’d eat at a barbeque, like mini churros and ice cream sandwiches. Take it up a notch and use geodes, tassels, and neon signs as a way to bring a little modernity to the simplicity.

his summer we not only celebrated our newest issue and what was to come in 2020, but we also brought back our Bliss Bridal Awards! Hundreds of brides casted their votes over a two month voting period and the results are in!

Also, if you haven’t heard there are a lot of fun changes happening over here at Bliss! After surveying 125 brides, we took their feedback and got to work! We now have two larger magazines per year vs. three and each one now launches at our bridal shows in January and June. We have also increased our real wedding features, added more content per magazine and added a very useful tool in the back “The Bliss Bridal Bible,” what we like to call the Holy Grail of wedding vendors. We hope that you love all of these new and exciting changes and as always we hope this helps make the planning process that much easier!

Bridal Boudoir PHOTOGRAPHY: BEAR MOOSE & FOX

A BRIDAL BOUDOIR SHOOT IS THE PERFECT WEDDING GIFT FOR YOUR GROOM BECAUSE YOU CAN TRULY GIVE YOURSELF TO YOUR SOULMATE IN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE WAY. 62

| BLISS BRIDAL MAGAZINE

A

bridal boudoir shoot is a sexy and sensual photoshoot where you pose in lingerie or partially nude in luxurious surroundings. Boudoir photography is very tasteful and nudity tends to be implied rather than explicit. A bridal boudior shoot is an amazing expierence and here are a few reasons why you should consider it for your big day...

• You can surprise your groom with a boudoir album as a wedding day gift or a stunning slideshow the night before the wedding – giving him a preview of your wedding lingerie (because we all know that you might not actually be wearing it on your wedding night!).

• You are probably looking pretty fabulous after months of hardwork and pampering for the big day; this is the perfect time to create beautiful memories and celebrate you!

• You can use your bridal boudoir shoot to showcase your wedding lingerie and also feature those amazing shoes you spent hours searching for.

You can also include a love letter and your wedding jewelry to add something sentimental.

• Bridal boudoir outfits often include stunning wedding robes, elegant bodysuites, veils and even your wedding dress if you wish.

IN HER WORDS. . .

"Josh Davis, owner of JD’s Catering was such a delight to work with! Very dependable and reliable. His team exceeded our expectations with their delicious and beautiful presentation and generous service to our dinner guests! Lisa Davis, his wife, created our wedding cake, and it was so nice to have that cake service also provided. We had a number of gluten-free guests, and they seamlessly and happily provided accommodations for their dietary needs."

"Cathedral Oaks is such a beautiful place to be married!

Our pictures were simply dreamy. We wanted an indoor ceremony and reception, and their in-house team handled our “room flip” in less than 20 minutes, while our guests enjoyed refreshments and h’ors d’oeuvres on the spacious covered patio. Brittany and Lauren were so helpful and gracious to answer all of our questions throughout the process, and delivered on every promise that was made."

"Shopping at Main Street Bridal was such a treat!

We were so impressed with their professionalism and attentive service. It was great to be able to shop local, and not have to waste time traveling for final fittings and to pickup my gown, which they safely stored and steamed for our big day— Highly recommend!"

"I highly recommend Cathedral Oaks for your next event. The place is set up perfectly for weddings.

I had three choices of outdoor, outdoor on the covered patio, or indoors in front of the floor to ceiling windows and all of them were gorgeous so weather wouldn't be an issue. Their bride and groom suites were fabulous and it was just the elegance I wanted for my guests."

"Cork and Clink was so fun to work with for our adult beverages. The truck was just the little piece of something "different" that we needed for the event.

They worked great with us accommodating our location and tastes. I would highly recommend them for any event big or small."

"Having Gretchen Williams play the harp for our ceremony was everything I could have dreamed.

It was the perfect backdrop for our outdoor ceremony.

Hearing the fountain and elegant sounds from the harp made it so romantic and set the tone for the ceremony."

After finishing touches at the chapel and reception hall, I walked in and was speechless at the beautiful work Lindsay did.

Choosing Botanical Jane for my florals will forever be one of the best decisions I made."

"Travis with Cinderella Films blew me away with such a special video that I will forever cherish.

His team made sure to capture every important shot, and were so easy to work with. I could not have asked for a better videographer to capture my special day. Also, Travis recorded a special message that my dad wrote to my husband and I and included that in our video. This was a sweet surprise and I am so grateful to have that forever."

"Simply Delicious Bakery makes the best cakes around.

I’ve known the owner, Angie Baccus, for quite some time and I had complete trust in her that Simply Delicious would make the most amazing cakes for our big day. When I talked to Angie, she was so kind and knew exactly what we were envisioning for our cakes.

She made our cakes look like everything we wanted them to be and they tasted even better."

"Christy, from H-E-B blooms, did such an amazing job on our flowers. We ran into an obstacle during our wedding planning process with another vendor, and when we contacted Christy she stepped in and saved the day. She knew exactly what I was wanting and our flowers were nothing less than perfect. H-E-B blooms did such an incredible job on our florals and for an added plus she came in under budget."

Chris and her team have the ability to make any dream become a reality. " " I don't think there are enough words to express the gratitude I have for Karla and her company Karla McNeill Events. She stepped in at the last minute and worked with my mom to create a wedding I couldn't even imagine. My husband is from New Orleans, so she brought that in by having touches of his hometown throughout the wedding. It was done so elegantly. I hope she knows how much we appreciate her, and what an honor it was to have her as our event planner. We are forever indebted to her for helping create an event that was not only our wedding, but a production of beauty some had never seen and are still talking about. " " When we had our taste testing with TCP Catering it was the lemonade that had my then fiance, now husband ready to commit. The lemonade was good, but the food was delicious. People are still talking about the cocktail hour. The food was set up so beautifully and the variety catered to everyone's taste! "

I’m so thankful we found her!"

"Chris, the owner with Confetti Rentals, went above and beyond and was able to make our dream wedding a reality. After the initial planning meeting, I completely changed my color scheme and overall design.

Crazy, I know! Chris, had me come back for an extra meeting and we completely redesigned everything from the place settings and centerpieces to the cake table and photobooth backdrop. She was able to incorporate all of my personal decor and ideas, as well my favorite item, the cotton from the Beckhusen’s family farm."

Her energy and fun personality made it easy for me to let loose and therefore have more natural looking photos. She was great about keeping my new husband focused and relaxed during photos right after our ceremony.

I should have all of my photos soon, but even the preview shots she sent are stunning.

I can’t wait to see them all!"

"We found Makensie Banda of Heavenly Weddings online and really appreciated her different planning packages. I am pretty hands-on, but I needed help.

She was so patient and kept us both on track for our timeline in the planning progress. She was always willing to help us get creative if we needed alternative solutions. Additionally, during the wedding itself Makensie was so easy going and I didn’t feel stressed for a second. Not a thing went wrong on our big day, or so I know about, and to me that is the ultimate success. I am SO thankful we found her."

We received so many compliments from how well our day flowed to the intricate details of design and decor.

Without Karla McNeill, our coordinator, and Confetti Rentals extensive inventory our vision for our special day would have never come to fruition."

"All morning I was so calm and collected but the second I stepped inside our venue all my wedding jitters flooded out. On top of normal pre-wedding nerves I was keeping a huge secret from my soon-to-be husband. One of his groomsmen had to back out due to being in the army, at the last minute he was granted a weekend pass to resume his role. We ended up pulling off the surprise and I’ll always treasure seeing my husband’s reaction! After the surprise commotion died down, it was time to walk down the aisle. My dad in his goofy fashion, asked if I was ready and it instantly hit me that I was getting married. I still get butterflies thinking about my groom shedding tears while my dad gave me away to him. Our ceremony was simple and beautiful, and our reception felt like a middle school dance party."
