Bridal inspiration: Choosing White, Modern Designs for Every Aspect of Your Wedding
In the world of weddings, trends come and go, but one theme remains an eternal favorite: timeless elegance.
For brides seeking a sophisticated and contemporary aesthetic, there's no better choice than a palette of pristine white paired with modern accents. From the wedding jewellery and accessories to the dress or venue, and every detail in between. Embracing this classic yet contemporary style results in a wedding that exudes understated glamour and refined beauty.
We were honoured to provide our Wedding bands and Engagement rings for a concept shoot organised by our lovely friends at Toronto based event planning company Claudia and Co.
The vendors? All found in Toronto and the GTA by the Claudia and Co team.
The brief? “Clean lines, architectural elements and fashion forward”
Say less! Let’s dive in and get that inspo!
THE DRESS & ACCESSORIES
At the heart of every bride's Pinterest board lies the wedding dress—a symbol of love, romance, and personal style. Choosing a white gown with modern design elements can set the tone for your entire day. Consider sleek silhouettes with clean lines and minimalist detailing, such as architectural draping, geometric cutouts (think open back or high slits!), or avant-garde necklines. For this shoot, Toronto based Sash & Bustle knocked it out of the park with this high neck, sheath dress that was paired with a perfect ponytail and pearl drop earrings. Oh, and we can’t forget the pearl sandals to match!
THE JEWELLERY
At Meg Lizabet Jewellery you’ll notice our pieces tend to fall into two styles - chunky, statement pieces with juicy gems and an alternative edge OR modern, simple and clean lines with nods to architectural simplicity. We’re in love with both vibes and they represent the many sides that make us into the women we are!
For this shoot, we went with the latter style - choosing pieces that added subtle sophistication without overwhelming the overall aesthetic. Our Salt & Pepper diamond Calista engagement ring sat perfectly with our Eleanor Diamond Peak Ring. For other jewellery, classic pearl studs or diamond earrings like these can lend a touch of timeless elegance, while delicate bracelets or minimalist rings add a hint of sparkle. Whether you’re choosing white or yellow gold or platinum settings - try to choose clean lines and understated details to complement the crisp, clean palette of your wedding.
THE FLOWERS
White flowers epitomize purity, elegance, and simplicity, making them the perfect choice for a modern wedding. From cascading bridal bouquets to minimalist centerpieces, incorporating blooms such as roses, orchids, or hydrangeas in shades of white can create a sense of ethereal beauty and serenity. For this shoot, the team chose the timeless elegance of white roses with Ashley from Flowerly Studios providing the reflex rose centerpieces that were just magical!
THE VENUE
Selecting the right venue sets the stage for the entire celebration, and for brides embracing a modern white theme, a clean, contemporary space provides the perfect backdrop. Look for venues with crisp white walls, sleek architectural details, and plenty of natural light. Modern loft spaces, art galleries, or minimalist event halls with floor-to-ceiling windows offer a blank canvas for bringing your wedding vision to life. If you’re based in Toronto, consider the Elora Mill Hotel & Spa.
In conclusion, opting for white, modern designs for every aspect of your wedding— from the dress to the venue, jewelry, flowers, and accessories— allows you to create a celebration that is both timeless and contemporary. By embracing clean lines, minimalist details, and a monochromatic palette, you can achieve a look that exudes sophistication, elegance, and understated glamour, setting the stage for a truly unforgettable day.
We’re so happy to see this gorgeous vision come to life and to be part of a shoot featured on Wedding Chicks is such an honour!
