Glamorous Big Brisbane Greek Wedding

Brisbane's coffee king John Lazarou was completely buzzing recently... and it wasn't from too many espressos. In June, he joyfully walked his daughter Krysti, down the aisle as she married her beau Nick. What captured my eyes in this wedding was the divine cathedral, antique French lace veil. Something that her wedding dress designer and friend, Kerry Xynias, found whilst working in bridal couture in London. I am seriously envious over it. After filling the aisle with her spectacular veil, the newlyweds and guests headed to The Grand Ballroom at The Sofitel to dance the night away. This is really one glamorous big fat Greek wedding. Congratulations to the Lazarou family!

Bridal Headdress

If there is one thing i love about Facebook, it's the fact that i often find some amazing wedding photos on there from friends who have attended weddings. Unfortunately due to privacy acts i can not share some of the images i find but can share some wonderful ideas with you.

Today i found photos of the most beautiful wedding in Sydney... the bride was breath-taking! What i loved was her hairstyle and "not-veil". What she wore instead of a veil was a headdress similar to that of Nicole Richie's below... except the brides was made of diamonte and swarovski crystals. It looked stunning !!!! and sooooo chic.

Here are a selection of different bridal headdress designs. Though most of these are shown worn on the forehead, if you pull the piece back off your face a little and allow some of your hair to fall foreward, they look truly beautiful and very fashion forward.

Birds Of A Feather

This delicate feather theme will get your feathers all ruffled with wedding delight. Start with a simple feather on your invitation to set the scene, then incorporate them in a myriad of ways throughout your day. From a feather trimmed veil, boutonniere, to your cake topper and shoes, heck, why not end the celebration with a fun and romantic feather fight with your newly crowned husband. Your guests will be floating too as you ask them, "At the kiss of the bride and groom, please wave your feather for a flight into happiness"
