Rings. Veils. Crowns. The traditional wedding day look is one of elegance, tradition and timeless beauty. So how about reserving that for your wedding day and explore something different for your pre-wedding shoot? For the modern brides, here’s a pre-wedding shoot idea that is quite the opposite – an effortlessly simple yet stylish bridal shoot.
Just when we thought the pandemic had put a stop to all cross-border projects, The Proposal surprised us with a collaborative styled shoot with Iluminen based in Jakarta, Indonesia.
For those who think you can pull off a shoot effortlessly without the hassle of gigantic props or elaborate setup, we’re thinking you probably can… if only you have the eye for aesthetics – just like the team behind this stylishly simple shoot.
Spearheaded by The Proposal and Iluminen, the rest of the creative team was quickly assembled. They each brought along expertise in their craft and even in the thick of COVID-19, the shoot took form.
Centered around a selection of designer wedding dresses by ELIE SAAB, Galia Lahav, Marchesa and Pronovias, Iluminen conceptualised a fitting mood that is simple, chic and modern.
Floralchemy and Papeworks came in to provide their interpretation of the brief with a hanging installation and a suite of handcrafted wedding stationery.
We aimed to achieve an “airy” feel with the hanging flowers and other floral pieces. We simply find the most suitable decor to complement the overall look.
Allena, Iluminen
Everything took place, strictly speaking, in front of “a nice wall”. Yet when everything came together, it exudes an air of understated elegance. It is natural and yet captivating.
If your inclination is the same – to have a set of imagery that speaks effortless grace – it is truly possible to create something mesmerizing without all that fuss. What you need is the eye for aesthetic and a nice wall, or simply assemble a team that speaks your style to help you realise that vision.
