Scent of bride

Here comes Part II.  Photos are provided by Sue and James.

As the wedding was a two-day one, Sue picked altogether 3 wedding gowns to suit different occasions.

Sylvia was picked mainly for shooting in AMC, and for the banquet on 14 December which most friends and colleagues were there and she need a gown that is highly flexible and easy to handle.


G&G 06 was picked for the wedding ceremony on 12 December.  It’s a floor length layered gown that allows Sue moving around the cocktail party to mingle with guests.

See, most of the Government officials that you can recall their names were there to attend the wedding ceremony!

The last one is a gown that we specially tailor made for Sue to fit not only the occasion, but also to show her body figure.  She has never imagined that she can carry a bell-shape gown.  Yet, the first time she tried on it, she fell in love with in.

Thanks Sue and James for sharing the wedding day photos with us.

More to come!

Congratulations to Sue and James.

The romantic and solemn wedding held at 12:12 pm on 12 December (12) was a success.  Over 200 guests attended, including most of the local Government senior officials and politicians that you can name.

The gown (G&G-08) was hand-picked by Sue which was considered to be very suitable for outdoor wedding.  She made the right choice, of course.

Will update you more shortly.

Recommendation – by Vera Wang

October 30th, 2009

Just found a very good article from www.verawang.com.

Afterall, the most important point on how to choose your wedding dress is, whether it suit you.

Enjoy~

Question: Many people have advised me to choose a beaded wedding dress, but I love your simpler wedding dresses. What do you recommend?

Answer: As with every aspect of your wedding dress, beading is a personal choice. Beading – or any ornamentation for that matter – should suit the nature of the ceremony and the shape of the wedding dress. For example, pearl beading is more appropriate for morning ceremonies and beading of any kind makes a greater impact on an a-line or mermaid cut. Most importantly, your choice should suit you.

In choosing your wedding dress, consider design details in a more general sense. Where do you want to draw attention? Is the amount of detail on your wedding dress consistent with your personality and your vision for the day?

Remember that simplicity is also a statement. A draped bodice, for example, communicates a romantic sensibility similar to that of lace or beading. A dress with minimal detailing in a colored fabric expresses modernity. The absence of detail is a deliberate, and powerful, choice for your wedding dress.

如果有留意香港政界新聞,你一定知道立法會議員涂謹申將 於本年12月與女友拉埋天窗。

作為與涂認識多年的朋友,替佢開心之餘,當然要加兩多錢肉緊去支持一對新人。阿涂同女友影婚紗相時著的禮服,都係出自scent of bride=)

一對新人上月計劃趁立法會重開之前影婚紗相,兩個來自不同成長背景的人,自然有不同的心水。由新郎讀書的港大,新娘讀書的中大,到必不可少的立法會大樓(一般新人只可以喺立法會大樓外的走廊影結婚相,呢pair人咁特別,就梗係可以入大樓的範圍啦!)...終於要影足一日,由早到晩!勁就勁在阿涂影咗一整日婚紗相,夜晚仲可以接受電視台訪問!換了是其他新郎哥,一早就“冇電”!

冇諗過連影結婚相都出埋街,誰叫他們踫上U-Hall的三嫂!話說當幾家報館約咗三嫂做訪問(事緣係被尊稱為U-Hall三寶之一的三嫂,服務U-Hall四十四年後,獲港大頒贈「名譽院士」),巧遇一身禮服中look返U-Hall影相的阿涂同阿sue,促成了呢張「三個人的婚紗相」。


卒之,新人與三嫂齊齊上鏡,翌日見報=)

仲有一段小插曲。人逢喜事精神爽,阿涂大婚在即,心情自然靚靚,連樣都靚埋。話說有次嚟到scent of bride試衫,比女仔撩呀!有女仔在小店試完婚紗見到阿涂試衫,開口大讚佢“靚仔”過喺電視睇!開心到阿涂連連多謝!

希望阿涂同阿sue繼續keep住極佳心情,為婚禮的最後準備加油!

Lorraine is a bride who fall in love at first sight with her wedding gown.  She ordered it from us a year ahead of her wedding.
The gown she picked is a clean but timeless  wedding gown.  The off-the-white color echoed with the purity of the bride on her big day.
Lorraine matched her well-picked gown with a long lace-trimed veil.  Angel is in the details — the lace trim was fully beaded with crytals.
The lace trim matched the lace on her gown very much.
Lorraine’s pictures demonstrated vividly how beautiful a long veil could be.
See the stunning bride.

Thanks Lorraine for sharing with us the stunning big day pictures with us.  Credit should be given to the 1st class photographer, Ming Chan.  Ming, you have done a bravo job!

愈來愈多新人會找自己喜歡的攝影師拍婚紗照,在尋找適合的禮服拍照時,往往會以為必須找一些很閃、很多細節的禮服才可。事實剛好相反。
為什麼我這樣說?你先要問問自己,當你向朋友展示你的婚紗照時,你希望人家的著眼點在那裡?是新人的甜蜜笑容、幸福眼神和快樂表情?還是你的首飾、服裝或悅目的背景?
如果你的答案是前者,那麼一襲簡單、剪裁得宜、能配合你個性的禮服,才是你應有的選擇。
看看 Francesa 最新的一輯新作,你會知道一輯好的婚紗照是富有個性、特色的照片。

一襲簡單的G&G-08,與新人愛玩的性格配合得天衣無縫:

簡單的背景,卻有著強烈的色彩對比。裙身的喱士簡約卻細膩,裙擺的層次使相片的層次變得豐富。但任顏色再鮮豐、層次再豐富,都也搶不了新娘子的鏡!新娘子就是主角!
置身樹林中,兩人甜蜜的一刻影進了鏡頭,也倒影在水裡。構圖無懈可擊!
換成啡色單色照片,加上新娘子回眸一笑,頓添浪漫色彩。
素凈簡約的”Deborah”,也是拍照婚紗的好選擇!新人也收起了頑皮的表情,換上溫馨的笑。簡簡單單的一幀照片,卻是暖暖的:
新娘子換上鮮紅晚裝,加上場景及燈光的配合,浪漫得來帶點性感:
感謝 Francesa 及新娘子 Joan 與我們分享這輯美妙的婚紗照
