AU: Not only did you create pieces for you and your husband to enjoy, but gifts for family and friends. J: In the beginning, you think your wedding is just about the two of you, but on that day, you realize how meaningful it is to all of the people who love you.

While bohemian floral design tends to lean toward the more organic and casual, there is one opportunity to really go all out and keep with the theme. A plethora of petals or whole blossoms scattered across the surface of a water feature (which Shindig Chic executed) creates a captivating focal point that can elevate any venue.

The combined force of a brightly colored smoke bomb with natural white makes for some dramatically stunning photo opportunities. The photographer can capture some stunning images that show off the bright hue while the clouds are still separate, but when they start trailing together, the white blends to create a whole new color of soft pastels. Plus, we love the way white smoke settles to look like an actual cloud, especially if you're up in the mountains like this couple. Shooting portraits midday can be a challenge, especially in direct, bright lighting. Use a sunny color like orange to diffuse the harshness into a soft, warm haze-bonus points for looking at your spouse like this bride is heart-eye gazing at her new husband. We're loving the way these downtown smoke bomb wedding portraits put a green and gray cast over the city skyline. The hazy backdrop gives a surreal movie poster feel, and this bride and groom look like they are walking right into their happily ever after.
