One of the bigger wedding trends right now is incorporating large palm leaves into your decor- typically for tropical themed weddings but they work for a variety of wedding styles. For our San Diego Exquisite Wedding Magazine feature shoot, these leaves played a huge role in the decor with an arrangement on the back white wall for photo backdrops. They were also used to write calligraphy names for guests and sayings for the bride and groom to hold up in their pictures. So many cool and unique wedding trends for 2017 were shown in this shoot. The groom wore our black notch lapel tuxedo by Michael Kors with a black and white polka dot bow tie for his first look. He also wore our navy blue shawl lapel tuxedo coat with a long black tie and our burgundy shawl lapel tuxedo by Ike Behar with a solid black bow tie. He hit every big wedding trend when it comes to menswear, and with the same black pants its easy to change up the coat for a different look all its own. The bride also wore a few different gowns, the first being a form fitting lace gown with a cool neckline lace design and a hairpiece clip with a long veil. The second dress is a nice a line chiffon gown with a sheer lace bodice and white bandeau style top underneath. The third gown was a form fitting gown with long lace sleeves and a high neckline. The fourth gown is a newer trend we are seeing with brides, and that is the two piece gown. She wore a halter style crop top with a ruffled skirt for a fun and cute look. The last gown was a simple look with short sleeves that is perfect for a more casual wedding. Check out all the bride and groom's styles below!
