Classic Indian Wells Country Club Wedding by MickoPhoto

I can’t even believe the gorgeous views on the backdrop of this country club wedding. I don’t think New York Wedding Photographer MickoPhoto could have asked for a more beautiful wedding destination. Clear blue skies, behind a beautifully rugged mountain terrain. The bride dressed her bridesmaid in classic blues, and decorated in flowers in tones of whites and greens. One of my favorite elements is the elegant chairs in the lawn setting at the Indian Wells Country Club.

Hues You’ll Heart: Silver and Blue

With Christmas approaching and cold weather upon us, we obviously have to continue our cold Christmas colors! This hue you’ll heart is the perfect color scheme for a chilly winter wedding. Silver and Blue together create a serene winter wonderland wedding. I love the idea of using a greyish-blue and adding a shimmery silver to create an eye catching combo. Here are some great ideas to help you create your own wedding wonderland!

Morgan’s Five Favorite Bridesmaids!

There are so many different styles here, and I love it! Starting with sequin and lace- I love the two combos here. Each ‘maid looks fantastic and although each are technically matching, they have put their own spin on it. A wide range of neutrals seems to be wedding gold. It may seem daunting, but it sure does pay off with excellent photos and happy friends! Light prints are fun and they create a casual environment. I love the long dresses with parisols instead of bouquets- so unique! And of course any photo underneath a chandelier is beautiful, but so is the range of warm blue dresses!

Enchanted Forest Ceremony & Elegant Garden Reception in California

Everything about this wedding makes me feel sweet and sugary. From the romantic dress with cap sleeves and glitzy lace to the soft invitations with just a hint of a lilac print. You can recreate this garden party with a flapper-style wedding dress and bejewled shoes; mismatched bridesmaid dresses in the softest pearly-blue color; and a breathtaking setting beneath a canopy of trees. The reception is simple with long tables, and large candles as centerpieces set atop a soft, lace table runner. This couple got married at a private residence in Calistoga, California and was photographed by Greg Slick.
