There’s a quiet romance to @pallascouture’s Ma There’s a quiet romance to @pallascouture’s Maison La Rose collection, where sculptural bodices meet flowing skirts and every detail is made to be seen: especially up close. ⁠ ⁠ It’s a collection that speaks of a modern style, and the full feature is now live on Polka Dot Featured! ⁠ ⁠ ⁠Photographer: @pervak_photography / Venue: @jaxonjamescouturebridal / Hair & Makeup Artist: @reveriebeauty.nyc / Flowers: @bridalboy / Rental Furniture: @nyloungedecor / Model: @marylyn.phan / Model: @rebeccasorkin / Model: @ronjasusi / Model: @tabithamgreen / Model: @liliana_audrey / Model: @juliaryanmurray⁠ ⁠ [Video description: Short snippets from the Maison La Rose collection release event stitched together with “Material Girl” by Kris Bowers in the background.]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #MaisonLaRose #PallasCouture #BridalCouture
There’s something so special about a proposal th There’s something so special about a proposal that feels completely them: thoughtful and full of heart. @jay_vanessen told @kennedyparke they were heading to a family shoot, but instead, he had an entire setup waiting for her on the shores of Sisters Beach… flowers, silk, her dream photographer, and a whole lot of love.⁠ ⁠ From the surprise setup to the celebration that followed, this one is all about the joy of being truly seen (and very, very loved). Head to Polka Dot Featured to see how it all unfolded!⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @rheanna.lee.photography / Styling: @mollieandmaeweddings⁠ ⁠ [Image one description: A couple embraces on the beach, as the guy leans in to kiss the woman’s cheek while wrapping his arm around her waist. She smiles broadly, eyes closed, holding his neck with one hand. She wears a light, textured dress with puff sleeves, and he wears a short-sleeved, checkered shirt. ⁠ ⁠ Image two description: The moment the woman noticed the photographer, she started screaming in joy.⁠ ⁠ Image three description: A close-up of the hands of the couple, with the engagement ring on full display. Made of silver to match her other jewellery.⁠]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #SurpriseProposal #EngagementShoot
There's a lot of noise out there about Instagram-w There's a lot of noise out there about Instagram-worthy weddings. About getting featured. ⁠ ⁠ About letting go of tradition because tradition is uncool.⁠ ⁠ About which decisions are dated and which ones are trending, and how you definitely don't want to look back and know you got married in 2026 and look, well, 2026. But also, while you're at it, make sure you're on trend.⁠ ⁠ But what we want you to know, what our whole vibe is, really. Is that none of it matters. Not the external voices. Not the trends. Not even us, if we're being honest.⁠ ⁠ It needs to be yours. If it's yours, and your person's, that's all that actually matters.⁠ ⁠ Use the mason jars or don't. Wear the white gown or don't. Do a first look or don't. Just make sure it's all you.⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A series of eight square slides with a teal green background and white text. Slides one through six each display a single wedding concept in large bold uppercase letters: Big Wedding, Small Wedding, First Look, Grand Entrance, White Dress, Coloured Dress. Slide seven reads: You've been told your wedding should look a certain way. Feel a certain way. Be shareable. Be perfect. Be something other people would choose. Slide eight reads: It doesn't matter. It only matters if it's yours. Each slide features the Polka Dot Wedding logo at the bottom.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings
Everyone's talking about the aesthetic. The trends Everyone's talking about the aesthetic. The trends. The must-haves. The content that makes your wedding look a certain way.⁠ ⁠ But what about what planning a wedding does to you? To your relationship. To your mental health. To your sense of self.⁠ ⁠ What if your wedding felt as good as it looked?⁠ ⁠ When we took over @mindfully_wed last year, we understood it to be about sustainability and eco-conscious weddings. And it still is. But we're also asking something bigger now. What does it mean to plan a wedding with intention? One that looks after your mental and physical health, your relationships, and gets into the stuff that doesn't get talked about enough?⁠ ⁠ To celebrate the launch of the new home for Mindfully Wed content, the Mindful Edit, join us this April and May for the Mindful Issue.⁠ ⁠ Link in bio.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Luke & Laura captured by @georgiawiggs⁠ ⁠ [Image one description: A couple stand side by side, backs to the camera, walking through a lantern send-off at dusk. One person wears a floral printed coat, the other a green puffer jacket. Guests on either side hold glowing triangular paper lanterns aloft as warm golden light filters through the trees behind them.⁠ ⁠ Image two description: A graphic story slide with a navy blue border and a diagonal split background in white and soft teal. In the centre is a dark navy circle featuring a white icon of a heart with a plant growing from it. Curved text around the top of the circle reads "The Mindful Issue" in a serif font, and text along the bottom reads "This month on Polka Dot Wedding."]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheMindfulIssue #MindfulWeddings #MindfullyWed #IntentionalWedding #SlowWedding⁠

You can plan every detail of your wedding day, but You can plan every detail of your wedding day, but some of the best parts aren’t scripted!⁠ ⁠ The moment the music hits just right.⁠ When your guests are suddenly on the dance floor.⁠ When it all feels a little louder, a little lighter, and completely you.⁠ ⁠ That’s the kind of joy we’re talking about, that unfolds naturally, and stays with you long after the night ends.⁠ ⁠ For our Joy Issue, we’re exploring the magic of live wedding music with the talented team of @bakerboysband and why nothing quite compares to the energy of a live band when it comes to creating unforgettable moments.⁠ ⁠ From spontaneous dance floor magic to music that moves with the mood of the night, this is all about the moments your guests will be talking about for years to come.⁠ ⁠ Read more via the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ Photography: @marcelthephotographer⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A joyful, inclusive wedding dance floor moment with guests of different ages and backgrounds dancing together, clapping and laughing as the celebration comes alive. One guest in a kilt and another in a flowing outfit lead the energy, creating a fun and vibrant atmosphere on the dance floor.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheJoyIssue #FunWedding #JoyfulWeddings #WeddingFeels⁠
