New Years Eve Outfit Ideas for Weddings
I want to revisit this inspirational photo shoot from a few years ago that I feel represents some awesome New Year’s Eve outfit ideas for weddings. These gowns work for as guest, a bridesmaid or as a bride (can we say second look for your reception!) I designed this segment of the shoot (it was 4 segments, or 4 mini shoots, representing each of the four seasons) specifically to be New Year’s Eve outfits. Because what better winter wedding date is there than New Year’s Eve? I love a New Year’s Eve wedding. I love confetti and disco balls and champagne. All of which should be in abundance on NYE. Yes, it can cost more to marry on New Year’s Eve, but really, it can be worth it too.
