Mia & Aris: Celadon Green and Turquoise Blue Victorian Wedding Cord and Unity Candle Set

Kate Middleton’s marriage to Prince William sparked the Victorian trend with her lacy sleeves, classic long veil and traditional yet modern bridal gown. This royal wedding inspired brides all over the world to stage their own unique, elegant and extravagant wedding.

A Victorian wedding is all about class, grace and refined romantic atmosphere of an exquisite nature – most notably, elegant lace, dainty damask, and passionate roses.

Knowing all these facts, creating the wedding cord that will bind Mia and Aris and the candles that will light their path is as surreal as it can be. I want to make a cord and unity candle set that will blend well with their wedding theme yet memorable and unique. Here’s what I produced:

Charisse and Irvin's DIY E-session-inspired Wedding Cord and Candle Set

Like most modern brides, Charisse is very much attached to every bits and pieces of their wedding details. Together with her beau, Irvin, and with the help of some friends and relatives, she painstakingly personalized her bridal bouquet, the awe-inspiring corsages and bouquets for her female entourage as well as the boutonnieres for groomsmen (all of which are made of recycled fabric, lace, buttons, caps and felt cloth) just to name a few. To top it all, Charisse and Irvin held their engagement sessions by themselves – Do-It-Yourself (DIY) style! Cool, isn't it? The bride’s website translates the couple's love for each other and their passion for (vintage and retro) photography and their wedding. Their DIY e-session photos were featured in a number of websites abroad and we're very grateful that Charisse gave us the permission to publish some of these works of love. See for yourselves how amazing these photos are:

Cathy and Jay-Ar: Purple and Gold Wedding Cord and Candle Set

Purple is one of the most popular wedding colors of the 20th century. When combined with gold, these two exudes luxury, royalty, wealth and romance. To further enhance this combination, Ms. Cathy and Jay-Ar will be hosting a vintage-themed wedding. Here are the unique ceremony accessories that I created especially for them to match their theme and motif:
