An Historic Castle Wedding with Rich Purple Detailing

If you've read this blog for a while, you'll know I get tearful every time I watch one of Deneemotion's incredible wedding videos. Denis creates these gorgeous trailers for his full-length videos, and they're the perfect taster to send your wedding guests after your big day. One of his recent couples, Stacey and Matt celebrated their wedding at the gorgeous Lympne Castle in Kent. I'm a complete sucker for an historic venue, and I love how Stacey chose a royal purple, as her signature colour - the shade suits the venue perfectly - and it happens to be Pantone's Colour of the Year for 2014! With elegant full-length bridesmaids gowns, fabulous Mischka Badgley shoes, and stunning orchid buttonholes to reflect Stacey's heritage - this lovely wedding is a lesson in elegant sophistication.

Real Boho Barn Wedding Video: Vicky & Richard

It's been a weekend of strong emotions here at the Before the Big Day studios. First there was the excitement of being featured in Wedding magazine, and then this wedding video trailer by White Dress Films had me in tears! Vicky and Richard celebrated their big day with a traditional church ceremony, followed by a gorgeous reception at South Farm in Cambridgeshire. There's tonnes of gorgeous reception details {pom-poms - yippee!}, but it's the Vicky's wedding outfit that's really got me excited. Her gorgeous fishtail gown has stunning lace straps, and she teamed it with a lovely cosy fur shrug - the perfect accessory for any spring bride. I also love her pageboys' outfits - their cute matching waistcoats and converse trainers. With pretty blue and red flowers arranged in lace jam-jars {the easiest and most effective DIY project ever}, stunning patterned wedding stationery {spot the programme at the start}, and even white peacocks, it's a treat from start to finish. Enjoy it with your morning coffee!

Real Glamorous Barn Wedding Video: Hilary & Trevor

How many weddings are you going to this year? I've got two this summer and I'm exceedingly excited about both. One is going to be at Cripps Barn in Gloucestershire, and after watching this emotional wedding video trailer for Hilary and Trevor's wedding, I couldn't be more thrilled. It looks like a truly fabulous wedding venue - a lovely mixture of modern and rustic, with stunning views across the countryside. Hilary and Trevor chose rich purple and soft cream for their wedding colour palette, and I love how it ties together all their wedding details. Hilary's rocking a Great Gatsby 1920's look for her wedding, with Art Deco-style earrings, and a glamorous taffeta wedding gown teamed with a stunning glittery sash - a great way to personalise any wedding dress. Other wedding-details-to-love include the rustic luggage tag place-markers, the pretty mini-bunting cake topper, and the beautiful spring wedding flower arrangements. Huge thans to White Dress Films for their fantastic wedding video trailer. It might be the new baby hormones, but I sobbed all the way through this one!

There's nothing I enjoy more than a sneak-peak of a gorgeous couple's wedding video. It's a fast-track way to view all their fabulous wedding details, and if the wedding videographer is good, then you get a real sense of the atmosphere for their big day.

You're going to love Lisa's gorgeous vintage style, her bridesmaids' flouncy dresses, Forties hair-styles and fabulous tights.

Real Red-Themed Wedding Video: Jenny & Rupert

There's something about wedding videos that make me seriously emotional! There were more tears this morning as I watched this wonderful wedding video by White Dress Films. It's a traditional Cambridge College wedding, a stunning wedding venue filled with beautiful wedding details. With a Scottish bagpiper, a rich red colour theme, Jenny and Rupert celebrated their wedding in some serious style, despite the rain! I love Jenny's stunning wedding gown, with its lace bodice and elegant train, her cathedral-length veil, and her gorgeous yellow and white bouquet. Enjoy!

Real Vintage-Themed Wedding Video: Jo & Phil

I'm fast becoming a huge fan of weddings videos as the ultimate source of wedding inspiration. It's all down to the wedding details to minutes ratio, and this fabulous wedding short by White Dress Films is chock-a-block! Jo and Phil chose the gorgeous Stowe School for their wedding ceremony and reception, and I'm blown away by it's stature and beauty. It's the perfect wedding venue for a rainy day, because the building is so gorgeous, you'd never notice the grey skies outside. Jo and Phil personalised their big day with tonnes of wedding details, including some seriously fabulous green grass table decorations, their candle-lit wedding ceremony, cricket ball cake {watch the video!}, vintage tea-cups and hilarious photo props. I'm also deeply in love with Jo's beautiful lace-edged veil - one of the prettiest I've ever seen. For more wedding hints and tips, don't miss Jo and Phil's wedding pictures on Rock My Wedding.

Real Beautiful Barn Wedding Video: Samantha & Jamie

Vintage barn weddings are by far the favourite venues for British brides. With so many stunning historic rustic buildings across the UK, there's bound to be one in your area, and they provide a brilliant blank canvas for your wedding ideas. Samantha and Jamie created a stunning elegant pink and cream themed day for their wedding at Blake Hall in Essex. This fantastic White Dress Films wedding video trailer highlights all the best wedding details from their big day. I love the vintage bus, the Space Hoppers {near the end} and the decorations of white bunting, fluffy tissue pompoms, and rose pomanders. Samantha looks beautiful in her elegant Charlotte Balbier wedding gown and crystal studded veil, and I love her huge peony and rose bouquet - a flower trend I predicted would be huge for 2012 weddings back in August 2011.

Real Royal Blue Beach Wedding: Catherine & Wesley

Beach weddings are always fantastic fun. There's something about the sea and the sand that encourages people to kick off their heels and feel like they're on holiday. Catherine and Wesley got lucky on their April wedding day, with beautiful spring weather by the Kent seaside. I'm loving how Your Perfect Day has captured the light-hearted mood in this fab wedding video trailer. Watch for tonnes of fab wedding details, from Catherine's elegant A-line wedding dress, chignon and tiara, to the royal blue theme colour and the pretty butterfly wedding cake. They even had a confetti shower over their first dance!

Real Spring Snowdrop Wedding Video: Stephanie & Gary

One of my biggest regrets from my wedding day is that we didn't choose a wedding videographer. Our budget was super-tight, and it was one of those things that slipped under our radar. I always thought wedding videos were long interminable things that no one ever actually watched after their wedding day. But that's all changed now, as wedding videographers have become more professional and downright fabulous. I'm particularly keen on the 'trailer-style' wedding shorts that videographers produce. These three minute wonders squish all the fabulousness of your wedding into a short and sweet video that you can forward to your friends and family by email, as a reminder of your big day. I'm loving the emotions caught this wedding video by Your Perfect Day, it made me well up to watch Stephanie and Gary say their vows - they look so happy! Get involved with the glimpses of all their wedding details - there's tonnes of stealworthy ideas - from Stephanie's gorgeous lacy wedding dress and Faith shoes, to the dessert buffet, menus, caricaturist, hyacinth ceremony flowers, luggage tag placemarkers and the fab succulents in Stephanie's bouquet and the ushers' buttonholes. Whew - now that's a whole lot of wedding inspiration in only three minutes!
