Let’s talk about dresses. Yes, dresses! Girls can go on and on talking about dresses. Today’s engagement comes with two gorgeous dresses that are worth your while.

We then held our breaths upon seeing her second dress, a beautiful bohemian-inspired piece with delicate lace details. To those planning their engagement shoot attire, take your cue from this lady who got her dresses from The Wed Genie. Sona and Ray’s outdoor engagement is a captivating display of scene-stealing dresses. After looking at all their photos, we’re certain you’ll be just as thrilled about this engagement as we are. Many thanks to Sophia Kwan for filling this day with so much inspiration!

Beloved: A Portrait Experience to Capture and Celebrate the Most Beautiful You

Once in a while when our lucky stars align, we stumble upon a body of inspiring work that lights up all our senses. Today, it is our honour to share with you Hong Kong photographer Jada Poon’s beautiful portraiture brand called Beloved. Beloved celebrates femininity through the power of portrait photography and storytelling. By capturing delicate portraits of women in different stages of their lives–whether it be a recent engagement, wedding, pregnancy, promotion, transition in life, or even health battle–Jada aims to empower her subjects by making them feel beautiful and worthy, immortalizing their transformative journey, uplifting them, and ultimately, allowing them to fall more in love with who they are. Through Beloved, Jada seeks to create heirloom pieces of each woman she photographs–a legacy of authentic beauty, encompassing all ages and all stages of life to be cherished through times and generations.

Every woman has a unique story to tell. And Jada can help translate your story into a memorable experience as she brings out the best in you through her photos. These photos are not merely keepsakes of memories, but reminders of your innate beauty, strength, and grace–qualities that make every woman admirable and beautiful. Here are the stories of four women who have gone through the Beloved journey.

Whenever I come across weddings, I zero in on the details–the tiny pieces that make up the whole–and as I looked into today’s wedding, I fell in love with everything about it. Catie and Mikey made the best decision ever when they combined minimalist details with rustic elements for their wedding. The play of clean lines, as in Catie’s bridal look, and the raw, earthy elements that surrounded them resulted in a uniquely romantic celebration. Photographer Julian Gyula Zacsfalvi  also made sure to take portraits of the couple in an old Maltese Palazzo and in a nearby island, Gozo. Scenes like these reveal how weddings can steal our hearts at an instant. See more of this gorgeous Malta wedding now, scroll on!

Hidden Wedding Costs You Also Need to Prepare For

During the wedding planning process, one of the first things a couple sets is the wedding budget. They account for all costs related to the wedding, plan how much they will spend for each item, and set what their maximum spending cap will be. What couples usually fail to account for during this early planning stage are small hidden costs that arise in between taking care of all the big ticket items–costs other than those of the venue, the dress, the decorations, etc. They then find themselves unprepared for all these other expenses and struggle to stay within their initial budget! To help you avoid facing the same challenge, we’ve listed down the hidden wedding costs that you also need to prepare for.
