Cinderella winter wedding is build around the idea of frost turning all colors into pretty pastel tones in nature. Delicate icy blue is the main component of the aesthetic complemented by other cool pastels and dash of gold. Use the pastel tones in bridal party as well as in decoration. 

In this winter wedding theme the flowers are plenty but they are sturdy ones not afraid of cold: succulents, roses and sea holly are great picks for wintery wedding blooms. Several warmly lit Christmas trees are wonderful addition in a reception place, very statement decoration in my mind!

At wedding cake sugared cranberries and rosemary sprigs give a flavour of winter holidays but in a fresh way. The sugar coating also acts as a frosty layer and turns the colors of cranberries into a softer red.

Paris Fashion Week 2018 – Behind The Scenes With Heili Bridal

10 Nov, 2018 | Collaboration, Heili Bridal Events, In Studio

Paris Fashion Week 2018 – Behind The Scenes With Heili Bridal

Heili Bridal got a wonderful chance to participate to Paris Fashion Week together with evening gown brand Riikka Couture and jewellery brand By Laura Darth. Our trip to Paris in the autumn 2018 was epic and full of photoshoots and as a cherry on top a big fashion show. Scroll down to see behind the scenes pictures from our beautiful trip to the fashion capital of the world. Photography by Petra Tiihonen from Alias Studiot.

Heili Bridal fashion shoots in paris

Fashion shoots in Paris are a classic! We spent the first two days shooting in different locations in Paris together with Laura from By Laura Darth. Our models Joanne, Emilia and Katariina were the best! The days began at the hotel room were the models were prepared and day’s outfits decided.

The metro of Paris became very familiar to us. The locations were everything between small parks and streets of Paris to the best known landmarks and tourist spots like Louvre and Eiffel Tower. The first day of shooting was very warm and summery and we actually got a light tan! 

One of the photoshoots stretched late into the evening and tested the stamina of the whole group. Wind helped to create wonderful pictures but felt freezing when it blew through the clothes. I think everybody was equally happy when they got food and warm bed to sleep in after that day. 

 

Heili Bridal – Preparing for fashion show

Fitting day for the fashion show with Oxford Fashion Studio was busy and hectic. Everything was late as is typical for things with this many models and designers. Fittings had to be done in 30 minutes which is very short time when you have six dresses, six sets of jewels, six pieces of headwear and models we had seen only in pictures the day before. We only needed to change one model in the end and ended up adding another Finn to our group, Riina Seise, who arrived straight from the airport to the fitting. It was a really nice surprise!

Tourists in Paris

For one day we had a chance to play tourists and walk around the city centre enjoying the views. The best things in Paris were the pretty buildings and good weather. The light had ethereal quality that you can’t really find in North.  

Heili Bridal- The Fashion Show

The actual show night was fabulous! The buzzling beehive of the backstage was very homey, our theatre experience really paid off then and nerves were soothed. Things went well and what would it be if there weren’t few small mishaps. It’s all part of the live event! 

We at Heili Bridal would like to thank everybody who participated to this adventure with us: Petra, Emilia, Laura and Riikka especially. One big thank you goes to Mika and Olga who gave help when it was needed and for that we’re eternally grateful. Big thank you for everybody in Oxford Fashion Studio, you were all very welcoming and helpful, it was pleasure to work with you!
