The Debut

Take a look at Utah Valley Bride’s first-ever Pick Your Perfect spread! In place of our gown shoot this year, we decided to feature a few snapshots of wedding details to die for. We get so many incredible submissions from every kind of couple and every kind of vendor that it’s simply impossible to narrow down our favorites. We just wanted to feature more more more! 

These categories were meticulously selected with our couples in mind; we wanted to share our favorite trends and unique wedding moments with you for inspiration. Circle, star, or add a heart-shaped sticker on your favorite photo from each spread. Think of it as our version of Pinterest… Feel free to pin these pages up on your wall for inspo, we know we have!

Tablescapes

Lovely Linens & Cute Cutlery

Something we can’t ever overlook is the stunning tablescapes from our real wedding galleries and styled shoot submissions, and you shouldn’t either! Whether you’re looking for inspo for your pre-reception meal or your rehearsal dinner, consider these some of the best places to start. If you’re a floral tablecloth girlie or a farm table rustic bride, the opportunities are endless. And that’s just the beginning. There are florals, candles, table decor, cutlery, glassware, place cards, and menus to consider! We know, it can seem like a lot, but one look at these beauties proves that every single detail is absolutely worth it. 

Black Beauty

It’s okay to cry over how gorgeous this is; we definitely have. This styled shoot perfectly captured the beauty and timelessness of a winter wedding feast. That glitter tablecloth? So tear-worthy!

Italian Summer

Are we kidding with the fresh basil as a centerpiece with the fresh Mediterranean-inspired charcuterie? Next to the gold cutlery and accent pieces, those vases are to die for.

Hot Pink Harmony

We’ve never been so floored by such a vibrant color palette. The draping linens next to the texture in those florals and the colored glassware have us needing a trip to the dunes.

Wedding Gowns

Embrace the Drama

Don’t worry, the gowns aren’t all the way gone. We couldn’t help but feature the most jaw-dropping wedding dress moments from 2024, and you’ll see exactly what we’re talking about with just one look at these selections. We keep hearing brides say they don’t want a dress that looks like everyone else’s; take it from us, and from these brides, don’t be afraid to go all out with the ruffles, the overskirts, or the fun sleeves. The possibilities are right in front of you, if you’re willing to risk it! You’re the bride, embrace the bridal drama!

Rosy Ruffles

We know, it’s incredible. This bride took texture to a whole new level of tantalizing. Her gown is a dynamic movement of eye-catching rosettes and a perfectly structured bodice.

Bows

The Perfect Final Touch

Whether it’s on the back of your wedding dress, around your cake, hung up as decoration, or pierced through your ears, a bow is the best way to give something that extra level of “umph!” Bows are our favorite trend in recent years—and they’re not going anywhere. In fact, give us more! These are some fun ones of many, many bows we’ve seen, and all of them are graceful and fun in every setting. If you’re ever looking for something more, whether it’s for your bridal bouquet or a fun detail for your getaway look, a bow is the thing to “tie” it all together. 

Cut the Ribbon

We love a good cake cutting, and a cuter cake makes it all the more enjoyable. Much like a ribbon cutting marks the beginning of something special, so does cutting the cake, and this one has both!

Short n’ Sweet

This bow leaves quite an impression, nearly five feet to be exact. Paired with this cute mini, she simply is the moment. We all know a hairbow will class up any bridal look!

Something Blue

This whimsical blue dress is exactly what we mean when we say cottagecore is the perfect aesthetic. The bow in the exact same material as her gown just reinforces that tenfold.

Sole Mates

Bows are great, shoes are incredible, but together? It’s like they were made for each other. If you want a bold footwear moment to carry you down the aisle, this is exactly what you need.

Stationery

You’re Invited…

…To obsess over these flatlays as much as we have. There isn’t a better way to perfectly capture your dream wedding aesthetic than with your stationery. From save-the-dates to invitations, and even to your table numbers and dinner menus, you can show off your vintage vibes or your sleek and chic look easily with the colors and textures you love. You can even use fun papers, foiled crests, and embossed envelopes. And we’ll never not love a wax seal. Take this as a sign to add something special like pressed florals or a polaroid to your stationery line-up. 

Lace and Love

This exact shade of blue is so perfect, it’s like it was made for weddings. The floral embossing and custom crest on these paper pretties bring elegance to a whole new level.

Florals

He Loves Me, He Loves Me… More

Flowers are a must-have at every wedding, but some simply go above and beyond our wildest imaginations. Whether it’s an arch, a sweetheart table accent, or a flower crown for your flower girls, your flowers make your wedding more beautiful with every petal. And they smell nice too. These floral arrangements made us gasp out loud, whether it was from the color or the gravity-defying way they were arranged. If you’re looking for florals that will make your heart skip a beat at the sight of them, these are a great place to start. 

Outdoor Chandeliers

There’s nothing more pleasing than an indoor setting brought outside. The florals that adorn these chandeliers are the perfect way to make it all come together.

Heavenly Hydrangeas

Parasols

Something New

Parasols have officially made their way into our DMs, and we’re thrilled. From gorgeous lacy numbers to hanging flowers up inside, every unique umbrella moment makes a wedding go from great to gorgeous. Each of these selections is proof of that; have you ever seen more elegant brides? And of course, we love it when every bridesmaid gets one too. Every parasol pic transports us right into a love story. All brides need an accessory, why not make it one of these? It’s the extra level of glam you’ve been looking for, so simple yet so elevating.

Temple Kiss

How poetic is it that that specific spot on your forehead is called a temple? This groom knows exactly what we’re talking about. And the parasol behind her almost looks like a halo.

You know those bridges where people place a lock that symbolizes their love? This one is even better: they’re locking it up with their vows! And this parasol adds that extra touch of romance.
