Stripes or checks on your wedding tables? Carina a Stripes or checks on your wedding tables? Carina and Alex of @longlunchlinen in Tamworth, NSW share what to look for, when to pull a pattern back, and what to measure before you book. Part of our Pattern Issue, link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Linen by @longlunchlinen⁠ ⁠ Photography by @clancypaine⁠ ⁠ ⁠ [Image description: white linen tablecloth with a dark check pattern on a table under a large fig tree, set with a bowl of oranges, an enamel teapot, a glass drink dispenser and navy napkins, with wattle in a wooden crate and a tyre swing beside it.]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #ThePatternIssue #PatternWedding #PatternWeddingInspo
Lily Markovski of @lillimarcs has been making wedd Lily Markovski of @lillimarcs has been making wedding gowns for over twenty years, and the part she still gets most excited about is the fabric.⁠ ⁠ She’s written us a guide to patterns in a wedding dress. It covers how Chantilly, Alençon and guipure lace differ, how much beading is enough, and what to do if lace isn’t your thing. ⁠ ⁠ Our favourite tip is for fittings? Sit, walk and have a dance in the gown before you decide, because some fabrics look gorgeous on the hanger and feel stiff once you’re in them.⁠ ⁠ Read it via the link in bio⁠!⁠ ⁠ Photo by @danielkukecphotos⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A bride stands in a shadowed room with white light pooling on her profile. Wearing a glittering fitted white gown and holding a bouquet of pink flowers.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #ThePatternIssue #PolkaDotWisdom #WeddingInterview
