The great gypsy

CEBU, Philippines - Collaborating and innovating different themes in a wedding are now so fascinating. If you have an artistic flair and a passion for being creative, so to say, all things natural and a little bit off the ordinary, then a Bohemian wedding could be right for you.

Anything that makes the hype more interesting, Mark So for Harley Ruedas makes sure he has a thing or two up his sleeves. His bohemian inspiration lays out options for both bride and her entourage.

If we’ve truly embraced black as a wedding color motif, then we understand you’re ready for another tease. So, the Cebuano fashion designer who also owns a ready-to-wear line, has made a long gown that seemingly appears to have two separate pieces (purple column skirt with embellishments and fringed halter top), but in fact, sewn in a single silhouette. How’s that for a bridal gown?

Or light things up with this lime green sheer number with floral appliqués and pleats on the waist.

Okay, we hear—white is still in. But consider what’s to come. It’s no longer about the balloon silhouette. Ruedas is wise enough to combine soft and structured construction, making room for women to be themselves.—Clint Holton Potestas

Center of attraction

There is something about this concept that makes it so attractive to young brides.

On a collective point of view, you see things this way:  wild yet refreshing, the authentic boho romantic sensibility, the play of natural textures such as crafted headpieces, wild flowers and delicate dresses that are a manifold testimony to a creation of its newest rendition.

“When you are thinking of bohemian chic wedding ideas, think whimsical details, flowing dresses, layered and chunky  jewelry, wild flowers and feathers, and a bride and groom whose look is relaxed and effortless,” says Sandra Therese Lim of Events.dot.com, a one-stop boutique of wedding supplies.

“Think flowing, soft, airy ….the perfect bohemian chic wedding dress, pair this with a freestyle boho hairstyle with loose waves, a headband to wear across your forehead, and a few feathers or wildflowers to make your hairstyle bohemian chic wedding ready. Just think hippie, indie chic to complete your look from head to toe.”

It is easy to execute, a sultry ambiance, no strict rules, variation of colors and flows just like picking flowers on the side, and bunch them altogether for the bouquet.

The intimate Bohemian wedding is filled with stunning, eclectic details.
