Boho Chic Is Not Dead
If you follow my work, you might have seen a couple of outdoor sessions and boho chic weddings. I can’t help it, I have a soft spot for outdoorsy chic vibes! If like me, your happy place is: in the Desert, anywhere close to the Ocean, or at the top of a Mountain, keep reading.
Wether or not you opted to hire a coordinator to plan your wedding (and I highly recommend you do!), chances are you’re spending a couple hours weekly on Pinterest and Instagram in search of some inspiration to make your big day beautiful and unique. There are plenty of different wedding styles and the right one is different for each couple - trust your instincts. Let’s take the bull by the horns and ask the question on everyone’s lips: Are Boho Chic weddings officially… Passé? Not so fast!
Chill, you are getting married
The only drama you want at your wedding is in the poses you take for your romantic photos with your newly spouse, and a Boho inspired Wedding might be all that you want. Usually intimate, these kind of weddings relieve the pressure of finding a big venue and inviting people that you have not seen for 5 years. Only you, your boo, your family, your close friends and the starry sky as witnesses of your love for each other.
TRENDS THAT WE KEEP NEXT YEAR:
- AN INTIMATE WEDDING WITH THE DEAREST PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE.
- AN OPEN AIR CEREMONY TO FEEL CLOSE TO NATURE.
- DRAMATIC POSES FOR PHOTOS.
I’ve always knew you were an artist.
You knew since you were in first grade that you had an artistic soul. Whether life drawn you to this path or if you dropped art class one year later, having a fun an informal wedding could be the chance to create the party everybody will remember. Embody your inner child and stay open to creativity because Boho Weddings are all about Human freedom and artistic exploration. Putting Love, Art and Nature at the center of your wedding will help your guests to feel more connected with you and with each other and will make the celebration even more special and unique.

It will be chic or nothing.
It’s all about balance. Boho doesn’t mean that you have to DIY everything. Hiring the right vendors who know how to transform simple things in an explosion of romance is a big step in making a Boho Wedding a Boho CHIC wedding. They’ll know how to keep it natural and cool while using luxurious materials. You don’t have to sacrifice exquisite fabrics, precious gem, ethnic embroideries and fresh flowers when you decide on adding some Boho vibes on your big day. Everything is in the details so associate a little bit of chic here and there to add elegance and sophistication. You will then hit the right spot between a down to earth and and an upscale feel-like wedding.
