We love to see the guys in their wedding suits and tuxes, but many of our West Coast grooms are marrying on the beach &#8211; which often involves running through the ocean!  That means a tux may not be the best choice&#8230;so what is the well-dressed groom wearing to his beach wedding?</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The current trends for grooms feature blues, pale grey and beige &#8211; the perfect palette for any seaside event.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The current trends for grooms feature blues, pale grey, and beige &#8211; the perfect palette for any seaside event. Those are also the colours that tend to look the best when surrounded by nature. While there are no &#8216;rules,&#8217; be sure the groom&#8217;s look will stand the test of time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/grooming-bromance-wedding-men/">You are invited to more groom tips!</a></em></p>
<figure id="attachment_2643" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2643" style="width: 682px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="wp-image-2643 size-large" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/outlooks-for-men-Custom-682x1024.jpg" alt="" width="682" height="1024" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/outlooks-for-men-Custom-682x1024.jpg 682w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/outlooks-for-men-Custom-600x900.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/outlooks-for-men-Custom-200x300.jpg 200w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/outlooks-for-men-Custom.jpg 733w" sizes="(max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-2643" class="wp-caption-text"><em>Lisa Kopp Photography | Outlooks for Men</em></figcaption></figure>
<p style="text-align: justify;">That being said, what most grooms love about a beach wedding is that they can go less formal.  Undoing a few shirt buttons, maybe losing the tie/jacket, or simply being able to wear more casual fabrics. Some grooms still prefer to wear a suit but choose a looser fit that is more comfortable.</p>
<figure id="attachment_2646" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2646" style="width: 1024px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-2646 size-large" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/TeganMcMartin_Romantic-Mexican-inspiration-80-Custom-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/TeganMcMartin_Romantic-Mexican-inspiration-80-Custom-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/TeganMcMartin_Romantic-Mexican-inspiration-80-Custom-600x400.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/TeganMcMartin_Romantic-Mexican-inspiration-80-Custom-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/TeganMcMartin_Romantic-Mexican-inspiration-80-Custom-768x512.jpg 768w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/TeganMcMartin_Romantic-Mexican-inspiration-80-Custom.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-2646" class="wp-caption-text"><em>Tegan McMartin Photography</em></figcaption></figure>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Whatever the look&#8230;be sure to take a cue from the bride.  What she chooses as her bridal gown will influence how a groom will style. Go for a timeless yet comfortable look and enjoy a wonderful day with family and friends!</p>

<p><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Tips for the Beach Wedding Groom:</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Always allow the bride to take the lead in how casual your wedding will be &#8211; you may have to abandon your plan to wear shorts if your bride has found her dream princess gown!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Footwear can be anything from traditional to sneakers &#8211; but always have the appropriate shoes for your style.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Grooms can go sockless but always wear invisible socks with closed shoes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Cotton and linens or lightweight wool suits are perfect materials for outdoor weddings!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Never wear a formal tux under the beach skies. Always go towards lighter suits.  Remember &#8211; it can get hot!</p>

There is a sense of ease to it. A little more emotion. A little less rigidity. As engagement season unfolds and couples across Canada begin imagining spring proposals and weddings, suiting is no longer a last-minute detail. It is part of the story.</p>
<p>At the heart of this shift is <a href="https://www.bespokemadesuits.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><strong>Bespoke Made Suits</strong></a>, led by co-founder <strong>Adam Cheung</strong>, whose approach to men’s wear reflects how modern couples actually celebrate. Thoughtful, inclusive, and deeply personal, the brand understands that a wedding suit is not just about how it looks, but how it feels to wear it on one of the most meaningful days of your life.</p>
<p>This season speaks directly to couples who are curating every detail with intention, from the proposal to the last dance.</p>

<h3><strong>Relaxed Tailoring For Modern Celebrations</strong></h3>
<p>Spring 2026 suiting is all about comfort without compromise. As weddings become more experiential and less formal for formality’s sake, tailoring is evolving to match. At Bespoke Made Suits, that means lighter construction, softer shoulders, and silhouettes designed to move with you, not against you.</p>
<p>Adam explains it in practical terms. “On the West Coast, you have to dress for real weather, not just the ceremony. Lighter construction and thoughtful fabric weight allow the suit to breathe when the sun comes out, but still hold its shape when the temperature drops. That balance is essential for spring weddings here.”</p>
<p>Unstructured and semi-structured jackets, easy drape through the body, and trousers designed for all-day wear allow grooms to stay comfortable from ceremony to celebration. The confidence that comes with that comfort shows up everywhere, especially in photographs.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-18136" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1769875479_3822314971654013917_10211185768.jpg" alt="bespoke made suits, adam cheung, vancouver, menswear, bespoke suiting, groomsmen, groom, helen siwak, west coast weddings" width="1440" height="960" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1769875479_3822314971654013917_10211185768.jpg 1440w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1769875479_3822314971654013917_10211185768-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1769875479_3822314971654013917_10211185768-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1769875479_3822314971654013917_10211185768-768x512.jpg 768w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1769875479_3822314971654013917_10211185768-600x400.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px" /></p>
<h3><strong>A Fabric Story Rooted In Seasonality</strong></h3>
<p>Fabric choice becomes even more important as tailoring relaxes, and Spring 2026 brings a wide range of refined options. Bespoke Made Suits works with a carefully curated fabric library focused on breathability, texture, and longevity.</p>
<p>Linen–wool blends offer structure without heaviness. Lightweight Italian wools transition seamlessly from day to evening. Silk-linen blends introduce a subtle sheen that feels elevated without being overstated. For those drawn to character, textured weaves and soft tweeds add depth, while velvet accents quietly elevate evening celebrations.</p>
<p>“Choosing the right fabric weight means the suit does not stop being relevant after the wedding,” Adam notes. “We always think about how it transitions into summer events and early fall wear. A well-chosen spring fabric should carry you through multiple seasons with ease.”</p>
<p>It is an approach that resonates with couples who value longevity and thoughtful investment.</p>

<h3><strong>Colour As Personal Expression</strong></h3>
<p>Men’s wedding suiting continues to open up, and Spring 2026 embraces colour in a way that feels natural and considered. Earth tones like champagne, terracotta, and soft rust sit comfortably alongside greens ranging from sage to deep emerald. Blues move from pale spring shades to rich midnight tones, while creams and refined neutrals remain a favourite for warm-weather celebrations.</p>
<p>At Bespoke Made Suits, colour selection always begins with the bigger picture. Adam and his team take time to understand the couple’s vision, the venue, and the overall atmosphere. The goal is not to follow trends blindly, but to create a look that feels cohesive, intentional, and personal. When everything aligns, the result feels effortless.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-18137" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1770146411_3824587407350697341_10211185768.jpg" alt="bespoke made suits, adam cheung, vancouver, menswear, bespoke suiting, groomsmen, groom, helen siwak, west coast weddings" width="1440" height="1920" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1770146411_3824587407350697341_10211185768.jpg 1440w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1770146411_3824587407350697341_10211185768-225x300.jpg 225w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1770146411_3824587407350697341_10211185768-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1770146411_3824587407350697341_10211185768-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1770146411_3824587407350697341_10211185768-600x800.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px" /></p>
<h3><strong>Inclusive Craftsmanship For Every Couple</strong></h3>
<p>One of the most meaningful aspects of Bespoke Made Suits is its inclusive approach to wedding attire. As couples blend traditions, cultures, and personal identities, suiting becomes another way to tell that story.</p>
<p>The team regularly works with LGBTQ+ couples seeking complementary looks rather than identical ones, as well as clients who wish to incorporate symbolic colours or heritage details into their garments. Adam emphasizes that the suit should always feel like it belongs to the person wearing it, not the other way around.</p>
<p>Every consultation is approached with curiosity, respect, and care, ensuring the final garment feels authentic to both the individual and the partnership it represents.</p>

<h3><strong>Designed Beyond The Wedding Day</strong></h3>
<p>Today’s grooms are thinking beyond the wedding itself, and sustainability has taken on a more practical meaning. Longevity matters. Bespoke Made Suits approaches every wedding commission as a long-term wardrobe investment.</p>
<p>“Investing in quality is never a mis-step,” Adam says. “When a suit is made properly, with the right fabric and construction, it earns its place in your wardrobe for years. That is where real value lives.”</p>
<p>Clients often re-wear their wedding suits by pairing jackets with tailored denim or chinos, swapping dress shirts for refined knits, or dressing the look down with suede loafers or boots. The versatility is intentional, and it is built into the design from the very beginning.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-18130" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1717594951_3383754162879064393_10211185768.jpg" alt="bespoke made suits, adam cheung, vancouver, menswear, bespoke suiting, groomsmen, groom, helen siwak, west coast weddings" width="1440" height="960" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1717594951_3383754162879064393_10211185768.jpg 1440w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1717594951_3383754162879064393_10211185768-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1717594951_3383754162879064393_10211185768-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1717594951_3383754162879064393_10211185768-768x512.jpg 768w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bespokemadesuits_1717594951_3383754162879064393_10211185768-600x400.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px" /></p>
<p>As engagement season leads into spring celebrations, Bespoke Made Suits offers couples a suiting experience that feels timely, romantic, and grounded in real life. <strong>Through mobile consultations and their newly launched showroom</strong>, clients are invited into a process that is flexible, personal, and designed around real schedules. World-class textiles, thoughtful guidance, and a commitment to inclusive craftsmanship remain at the centre of every commission.</p>
<p>Adam and his team continue to redefine what modern wedding attire looks like on the West Coast. A wedding suit should honour the moment it is created for, while still feeling just as relevant long after the celebration ends.</p>

<p>A bride&#8217;s style is the ultimate fashion choice in a woman&#8217;s life, so it&#8217;s no surprise to find unique and trendy designs at West Coast Weddings. This shoot, featured in West Coast Weddings Magazine 2024, flaunted the beauty of the brides and the city. The Vancouver Art Gallery lions were unbothered by the gorgeous fashion but were an amazing backdrop to the streets behind them. </p>
<p>The stunning shots display the glamour of a pre-wedding shoot, a trend that has traveled to the Western world via the Asian world. Couples are choosing their destinations, which vary from their backyard (easy to do in British Columbia) to flying to their dreams, such as Paris, Bali, Norway, or Hawaii. Others choose spots such as the Great Wall, a volcano, the tops of the mountains, a castle, or London Bridge. Whatever the fantasy, it can be<a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/ceciliarodriguez/2017/10/31/how-fake-wedding-photos-have-become-a-lucrative-business-in-europe/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"> created for a Pre-Wedding Shoot</a>!</p>
<p>Why are couples choosing pre-wedding shoots? It&#8217;s a moment in time that many want to have celebrated forever. However, there are actually some great logical reasons as well. First, the couple gets to know their photographer and get relaxed with the camera. Second, couples don&#8217;t want to abandon guests on their wedding day to take photos when they are not in the zone. Photos on a wedding day usually revolve around family and the wedding party. So it&#8217;s hard to get those romantic epic shots at your wedding venue. Third, who doesn&#8217;t want epic shots to show off on your wedding day? Pre-wedding shots are often used as a theme for the actual wedding.</p>
<p>Pre-wedding shoots, while often luxurious (<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/film/2018/oct/05/the-fantasy-world-of-pre-wedding-photos-inside-chinas-billion-dollar-industry" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">check out this article!</a>), can also be close to home and intimate. Couples can center their shoot around a hobby, their pets, their favorite bar, or their jobs. One of our favorite pre-wedding shoots is underwater, and the bride could not swim! </p>
<p>One thing is for sure: pre-wedding shots feature some amazing fashion. You can easily rent out-of-this-world gowns just for the day and live the dream of being a fashion model. These gowns would not be functional at an actual wedding, but the sky is the limit for a pre-wedding shoot!  Guys are not left out; a groom can choose colorful suits, tux, and tails. Dare to be unique!</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">From windswept beaches to elegant urban lofts, West Coast weddings call for hair that feels effortlessly chic, timeless, and just a touch undone. W</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">hether you envision a soft, romantic look or something sleek and modern, these four hair trends are making waves across British Columbia and beyond.</span></p>
<figure id="attachment_17958" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-17958" style="width: 1024px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-17958" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Vintage-bride-hairstyles-by-Victoria-Rivington.jpg" alt="two vintage brides with upswept hairstyles" width="1024" height="768" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Vintage-bride-hairstyles-by-Victoria-Rivington.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Vintage-bride-hairstyles-by-Victoria-Rivington-300x225.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Vintage-bride-hairstyles-by-Victoria-Rivington-768x576.jpg 768w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Vintage-bride-hairstyles-by-Victoria-Rivington-600x450.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-17958" class="wp-caption-text">Victoria Rivington Photography | Shear Inspiration Studio</figcaption></figure>
<h4><b>Textured Low Buns</b></h4>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Low buns have long been a bridal staple, but this year they are getting a more relaxed update. Think soft waves tucked into a loose chignon at the nape of the neck, with delicate face-framing tendrils. This style suits everything from minimalist gowns to boho lace dresses, and it pairs beautifully with veils or statement hairpins. The textured low bun is especially practical for <a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/bridal-style-in-downtown-vancouver/">West Coast weddings</a>, as it can withstand a breezy ocean ceremony without losing its shape.</span></p>

<h4>Polished Ponytails</h4>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegant ponytails are stepping firmly into the spotlight for contemporary brides who want a clean, refined silhouette. A sleek ponytail gathered at mid-height or low with a wrapped section of hair around the band creates a sophisticated finish. This look is perfect for showcasing an embellished gown or dramatic earrings, offering a balance of modern style and bridal polish.</span></p>

<h4>Hollywood Waves</h4>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Timeless and undeniably glamorous, Hollywood waves are a favourite among brides seeking vintage allure. Cascading, uniform waves parted deeply to one side, flatter every face shape and photograph beautifully. West Coast brides are embracing this style with subtle shine sprays and soft volume, giving a nod to Old Hollywood while keeping the overall effect fresh and romantic.</span></p>
<figure id="attachment_17954" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-17954" style="width: 768px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-17954" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/bride-hair-chuunice-photography-Medium.jpeg" alt="bride having her hair braided wearing red asian wedding gown" width="768" height="1153" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/bride-hair-chuunice-photography-Medium.jpeg 768w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/bride-hair-chuunice-photography-Medium-200x300.jpeg 200w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/bride-hair-chuunice-photography-Medium-682x1024.jpeg 682w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/bride-hair-chuunice-photography-Medium-600x901.jpeg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-17954" class="wp-caption-text">Chuunice Photography | The Lolita Collective</figcaption></figure>
<h4>Effortless Half-Up Styles</h4>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Half-up hair has evolved into a laid-back yet elevated choice that feels right at home on the coast. Loose twists, delicate braids, or pinned-back sections allow brides to enjoy the best of both worlds—hair away from the face while maintaining natural movement and volume. Whether accented with fresh flowers, pearl clips, or minimalist pins, the half-up style exudes approachable elegance and suits nearly any wedding backdrop.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The top four <a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/10-west-coast-wedding-floral-crowns/">wedding hair trends</a> for West Coast brides are waiting for you. Whether your celebration takes place in a forested vineyard or a sleek city venue, these wedding hair trends will help you look stunning and ready to exchange vows! </span></p>

<p>Founded on the belief that choosing a wedding gown should be a joyful, pressure-free experience, Ethereal Bridal has become a trusted destination for brides seeking timeless beauty and personal connection. “My philosophy is rooted in creating pressure-free, meaningful experiences where every bride feels celebrated,” says Elena. “The grand opening is not just about unveiling a new space, but about welcoming the community into Ethereal Bridal’s story and sharing in the joy of new beginnings.”</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17733" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/EthrealBridal_GrandOpening_photo31.jpg" alt="ETHEREAL BRIDAL LAUNCH IN PORT MOODY, ELENA KAWA, WEST COAST WEDDINGS" width="1024" height="819" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/EthrealBridal_GrandOpening_photo31.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/EthrealBridal_GrandOpening_photo31-300x240.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/EthrealBridal_GrandOpening_photo31-768x614.jpg 768w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/EthrealBridal_GrandOpening_photo31-600x480.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<h3>A Space Designed With Love</h3>
<p>Inside the boutique, beauty meets intention at every turn. The studio features exposed grey brick walls and twenty-foot ceilings, creating an atmosphere that feels both modern and romantic. Crystal chandeliers add sparkle, while the most advanced linear lighting was installed to replicate natural daylight—ensuring every gown shines in its truest form. “Every detail of the lighting design was thoughtfully planned to make the dresses shine in their truest form, creating a one-of-a-kind atmosphere,” Elena explains.</p>
<p>Mannequins by the windows showcase gowns bathed in sunlight, and elegant racks display an exquisite selection from designers including <strong>Aria, Angeo, Luce Sposa, Maria Anette, Tatiana Kaplun, and Kira Nova</strong>. A seven-by-seven-foot mirror and a custom rounded couch—finished in Ethereal Bridal’s signature shade of purple—define the fitting area, which offers comfort, privacy, and a stunning view of the nearby mountains.</p>
<p>The boutique’s focal wall features the brand’s timeless logo and a glowing neon sign that reads “I said yes to the dress,” creating the perfect photo moment for newly engaged brides. “When we opened the doors for the first time, it felt like a dream had come true,” says Elena. “Everything we envisioned for this space came to life, and I knew our brides would feel the love and care we put into every detail and every dress.”</p>

<h3>A Community Celebration</h3>

Guests mingled with Elena and her team, explored the boutique’s curated collections, and experienced the warmth that defines the Ethereal Bridal brand.</p>
<p>“Port Moody is such an incredible community in that it has welcomed us with open arms,” says Elena. “Our neighbors have been very supportive, and we are surrounded by wonderful local businesses and a friendly, artistic community.”</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The most important way to ensure you are comfortable in your fabulous wedding shoes (or boots!), no matter your choice, is to break them in far before your big day. Please don&#8217;t pull your shoes out of their box for the first time the morning of your nuptials—you have to be a masochist to try that! So practice wearing your special day footwear far in advance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Photographers quickly point out that they can capture amazing shoe photos early in the day. They prefer bridal parties with &#8216;sensible&#8217; footwear waiting in the wings for outdoor photography sessions.  Of course, when it comes to the first dance, you will still want the fab shoes to be around, but there is no rule saying you must keep them on through the reception. (Check out <span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: left;">this pair of <a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/somewhere-over-the-rainbow-wedding/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wizard</a></span><a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/somewhere-over-the-rainbow-wedding/"> of Oz-inspired ruby red slippers!</a>)</p>
<p>What to wear for the casual part of your day? If you are going through the forest, you may need lace sneakers or a pair of stylish rubber boots.  However, if you are going to the beach, then be sure to check out the latest trend of bejeweled flip-flops!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So feel free to go for outrageously beautiful or simply outrageous shoes on your wedding day &#8211; but keep a pair of comfy ones within reach.  After all, your wedding day is the best excuse ever for a shoe adventure!</p>

<p><em><strong>Aisle Style with Chrissie</strong></em><strong> </strong></p>
<p>I always say to clients, while your wedding dress is the most important part of your ‘big day look,’ a veil has the power to take it to the next level. Whether you are going for the drama of a cathedral length or want to sass it up with something playful and short, the options are vast – it is just a matter of <a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/tofino-bridal-style-veil/">finding the right length and vibe that will compliment your look perfectly</a>!</p>
<p>This iconic piece of wedding attire can transform a look from beautiful to jaw-dropping. With so many styles, fabrics, and lengths available, even the most experienced fashionistas can feel lost in this gorgeous sea of tulle!</p>
<figure id="attachment_12429" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-12429" style="width: 754px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-12429" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FLAVELLE1PIC-Custom.jpg" alt="To Veil or Not to Veil by Lanaya Flavelle" width="754" height="1100" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FLAVELLE1PIC-Custom.jpg 754w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FLAVELLE1PIC-Custom-600x875.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FLAVELLE1PIC-Custom-206x300.jpg 206w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FLAVELLE1PIC-Custom-702x1024.jpg 702w" sizes="(max-width: 754px) 100vw, 754px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-12429" class="wp-caption-text">Flavelle &amp; Co by Lanaya Flavelle</figcaption></figure>
<p>The good news is that Vancouver&#8217;s bridal accessory designer, Flavelle &amp; Co., makes your bridal shopping that much easier. Not only are their designs completely gorgeous, but they have created a very comprehensive guide to help you select the style, length, finishing &amp; color. So, to veil or not to veil is not the question. It&#8217;s what choice will make you happy!</p>
<p>HOW IT WORKS: The guide takes you through your choices&#8230;the SILHOUETTE, the…FABRIC OPTIONS, the LENGTH, and the…EDGE DETAIL. Flavelle &amp; Co. has over 7,000 combinations when it comes to customized veils, so be sure to visit  flavelleandco.com and take their Matchmaker Quiz! They also offer alternative veil silhouettes such as wraps and capes. These beauties will really give you that WOW factor! Whether you are a classic, glam, effortless, modern, or edge bride – Flavelle &amp; Co. has a stunning veil for you, and they are supporting local business!</p>
<p>TIP: You can choose a cathedral length for your ceremony and simply remove it for the reception.  Don&#8217;t be afraid to switch up headgear throughout your big day. Floral trends such as gorgeous head wreaths atop tulle are some of our fav looks. </p>

With this shift to intimate weddings, we are seeing a welcomed new approach to bridal styling. Micro weddings and elopements have allowed Vancouver designers to expand their scope of bridal fashion and brides have a whole new list of options that were previously seen as not “bridal appropriate”. Pantsuits, mini-skirts, jumpsuits, silk slip dresses – the options abound!! Now, more than ever, <a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/getting-ready-bridal-party/">Vancouver brides are thinking outside the box when it comes to their bridal style.</a></p>
<p><strong>Here are a few micro wedding styling tips plus where to find all those bridal fashion essentials in Vancouver!</strong></p>

<p>OM Couture is all about sophisticated unconventional designs that make a statement. Om has an eye for timeless style and if you are looking for a custom design look, then OM Couture is the spot! She recently released the 831 Bridal Collection which was a collaboration with international style influencer EM Megan. Not only is this collection SO much fun and impeccably made, but many of the pieces come in different colors! @o_m_couture | <a href="http://www.om-designstudio.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.om-designstudio.com</a></p>
<p>Park &amp; Fifth is a perfect fit for the modern chic bride who wants the versatility to wear her gown more than once! Whether you are walking down the aisle or celebrating a special occasion thereafter, your Park &amp; Fifth gown will be the dress that keeps on giving! Park &amp; Fifth celebrates and understands that women come in different shapes and they strive to provide fits that flatter a wide range of body types and sizes. @parkandfifthco | <a href="http://www.parkandfifthco.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.parkandfifthco.com</a></p>
<p>One last, but definitely not least, special mention is NYC-based designer Jenny Yoo, “Little White Dress” collection which is available at Vancouver’s Everly Fine Bridal. With a variety of flirty and classic designs, visit the babes at Everly and they will surely hook you up with a chic and effortless look.   Everly Bridal | <a href="http://www.everlyfinebridal.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.everlyfinebridal.com</a></p>
<p> The magic formula to styling a micro wedding look is mixing statement pieces with understated designs. There is no better way to do that than with accessories!!! Luckily for us, Vancouver is home to some of the most talented accessory designers out there and Aisle Style with Chrissie has a few favs!</p>
<p><strong>Here are my top picks for local micro wedding accessory designers:</strong></p>
<p>A frequent collaborator of BSV, Atelier Simone Martin designs&#8217; defy the traditional ideas of ceremonial wear and celebrate individuality with an affinity for quality and luxury. Simone’s designs balance the drama of a statement piece while still keeping it elegant. Fashion-forward brides LOVE her! @ateliersimonemartin |<a href="http://simone-martin.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">simone-martin.com</a></p>

<p>Veils have come a long way and have never been cooler thanks to the incredible Jane Rhyan | the collection. Feature image at top of page photographed by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/meghanhemstra/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Meghan Hemstra Photography</a>. This Vancouver gem designs for the classic beauties, the drama queens, and the fashionistas, they celebrate individuality and their collection The Meadow is legitimately a work of art!  @janerhyanthecollection | <a href="http://janerhyan.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">janerhyan.com</a></p>
<p>Bridal styling is not just about the dress and accessories. What goes on your feet is just as important. Go for a pop of color, an embellished shoe, a bit of shine, or a cute bootie! Steven Madden, Zara, Aldo’s as well as department stores like Nordstrom’s or Holt Renfrew have a huge variety of styles, heights, and colors to choose from!</p>
<p>So, ladies…even though you may be going “smaller” in scope for your micro wedding, it doesn’t mean you need to throw fashion out the window – on the contrary!  A micro wedding is the perfect opportunity to push the envelope with your bridal attire and create a look that is beautiful, stylish and totally you!!! Happy Shopping with Aisle Style by Chrissie!<strong> </strong></p>

It started with an original veil and white gloves from the designer&#8217;s mother and ended with the models eating ambrosia to a Beach Boys soundtrack with even the video being given a Super 8 feel. <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-8834" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/60s-shoot-bride-Custom.jpg" alt="Twiggy Eyes + The Beehive Vintage Inspired Bride holding mirror dressed in lace miniskirt " width="800" height="1199" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/60s-shoot-bride-Custom.jpg 534w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/60s-shoot-bride-Custom-200x300.jpg 200w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The big hair and big eye make up are naturally part of any 60&#8217;s bridal day. The vintage wedding dress and shoes were sources from a local shop and, of course, are authentic to the period. Also true to the 1960&#8217;s is the peridot ring (owned by the florist which was her mother&#8217;s), the white dinner jacket from the 1950&#8217;s that was custom made in the Caribbean, a gorgeous white 1957 T-Bird Convertible and dishes and silver items from that decade. <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-full wp-image-8841" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_8341edwm.jpg" alt="60's Retro Wedding Couple throw flowers in the air at outdoor picnic in Cobble Hill" width="1024" height="684" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_8341edwm.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_8341edwm-600x401.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_8341edwm-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_8341edwm-768x513.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The floral design is a huge part of this incredible look. The very colorful choices being back the chaotic and bright feel of that time. Flowers are joyful at this wedding and surround the couple with love. They are, dare we say, groovy!<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-full wp-image-8605" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_8048edwm.jpg" alt="Vancouver Island Vintage Wedding Rentals by Party Mood" width="1024" height="684" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_8048edwm.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_8048edwm-600x401.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_8048edwm-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_8048edwm-768x513.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We especially love the antique green champagne glasses used as risers in the cake along with a very old &#8220;bride and groom&#8221; topper, Popsicles, teak chairs from the 60&#8217;s, and the Martini cocktails at a wedding! <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-full wp-image-8601" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_7908edwm.jpg" alt="Twiggy Eyes and the Beehive Designed by Cobble Hill Cake Co" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_7908edwm.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_7908edwm-600x400.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_7908edwm-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/BLL_7908edwm-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><br />
Black and white photos are a must for this shoot and we encourage you to visit the photographer&#8217;s IG for even more retro fun. So fab!<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-full wp-image-8836" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7722edwm.jpg" alt="Retro newlyweds wave from vintage car with just married sign " width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7722edwm.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7722edwm-600x400.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7722edwm-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7722edwm-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A &#8216;going away&#8217; outfit and picnic is the perfect look to finish this inspiration palette, complete with the bride changing into a &#8220;going away&#8221; outfit as was often the case at weddings. They enjoy ambrosia salad (a big hit in those days), strawberries, rose wine and, naturally, play croquet! We cannot say enough about this vignette and the thoughtful design behind it &#8211; any couple who wants to have a Twiggy Eyes + The Beehive 60&#8217;s feel to their big day can look to this very happening wedding for ideas. <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-full wp-image-8838" src="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7862edwm.jpg" alt="Twiggy Eyes + The Beehive retro couple eat popsicles against vintage car along the ocean" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7862edwm.jpg 1024w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7862edwm-600x400.jpg 600w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7862edwm-300x200.jpg 300w, https://westcoastweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/BLL_7862edwm-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">We love the whimsical and ethereal feel of this entire editorial! The original use of floral as art creates an entirely new bridal style for the statement bride. We are left feeling that the beautiful floral crowns are floating on clouds of bridal veiling. Butterflies seem to hover in thin air and the gorgeous gowns are icing on the cake. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We also love the equally stunning &#8216;butterfly crown&#8217;. It&#8217;s a case of opposites as this minimalist and artistic head crown brings maximum attention to the beauty of the bride. This look is complemented by the candelabras and blush floral bouquet reminiscent of the 1920&#8217;s runaway bride. </p>
<p>West Coast Botanical is so artfully married to the Asian floral design. Who wouldn&#8217;t want to look like this Vancouver bride? Be sure to check out our other <a href="https://westcoastweddings.com/bridal-butterflies-and-poppies/">fusion west coast wedding inspiration.</a>..</p>
