nosegays — close, round bouquets used in the 1800s \rith smaller, simpler flowers, but of better quality,” explained Bowles.
The choice in types of flowers^has also moved in a more romantic direction with the use of unusual, old-fashioned flowers like freesia and larkspur.
The same can be said for the hair styles many brides are choosing. Donna McNickle of Madhatters Impress-ns said that many more brides are going for a fairy-tale look with their hair styles.
Even those who photograph weddings have noticed a trend toward the romantic.
“You can tell by the places they select for their wedding — like Black Horse, Poplar Springs and bed and breakfasts,” said Tony Christiana of Christiana Studios in Catlett.
He also stated that more and more couples are asking for candid shots instead of the stiff, formal poses traditionally used. Christiana knows that this does not mean the formal portrait shots are gone for good.
“Everything runs in trends.”
As long as the trend is toward romance, Penny Crittenden with Feathers Farm Clydesdales will provide carriage rides, Tony Christiana with Christiana Studios will shoot engagement pictures in the woods and Teresa Bowles with Designs by Teresa will fashion dainty nosegay bouquets.
