As we head right into wedding season, we wanted to share today’s styled shoot that is all about breaking free of tradition and embracing out-of-the-box thinking. The “Slashers” shoot is all about inspiring not-so-bridal looks and unique wedding elements from the creative mind of Nikki from Slash Atelier.

The core idea of this shoot was to show how not-so-bridal dresses can still fit the dream wedding vibe. Full of moody gowns and sets, a rustic backdrop and an editorial look, the “Slashers” shoot is all about thinking outside the box.

Our models have their makeup and hair artfully done by Mariane Shao, keeping things pretty neutral and toned down so as not to take away from the striking outfits. Each outfit was thoughtfully curated from The Wed Genie’s collections to create a lookbook of not-so-bridal looks. Showcasing the range of attire available to brides looking for non-traditional outfits for their special days.

“Why not a mix-and-match off-white top and bottom or a black long dress for the wedding?” asks Nikki. “I hope you can join me to explore how to make the unusual to be part of a unique wedding.”
