a white smile for the bride

From the second he gets down on one knee and you say “Yes!” your smile is going to be a very large part of your life. From the reaction that your hidden photographer caught as he pulled out that shiny new accessory, to the engagement party, the bridal shower, and all of the parties in between, you are going to have more photos taken of you throughout your engagement and your wedding day than you ever will again.

And of course, you want to make sure you are feeling confident each and every time you flash those pearly whites and want to love every photo you look back on as a memory, and Crest 3D White Whitestrips are here to the rescue!

Before my wedding day, I knew that I wanted to feel more confident than ever so that every second my photographer was snapping a shot, I would look natural, un-forced, and would know that I was going to love every single shot that was captured. And so, I used Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitestrips to ensure this would happen. Many of us have never been photographed professionally before (I hadn’t!), so this was the perfect cure to being a little camera shy.

My favorite photos of couples are those that look the most natural. They are the shots that don’t look posed or forced. And what better way to capture your love for each other than showing that truly white smile, and capturing that laugh! And that is why every bride should look to Crest 3D White Whitestrips for that little boost of confidence that may be needed.

Your smile is a tool that you will not only be using on your wedding day, but a whole lot before that too:

 

Your Engagement

Many grooms-to-be are now hiring hidden photographers to capture the moment he proposes, and a smile (and maybe even a few happy tears) is definitely going to be a big part of those photos!

The Engagement Party

Your friends and family all gather together to celebrate you two, and they’re definitely going to want to snap plenty of shots with the newly engaged love birds!

The Engagement Photos

Whether you use them for your save-the-dates, for your guest book, wedding décor or home décor, or for a lot of #TBT’s in the future, these photos are definitely going to be featured all over the place…and you want that smile to shine bright like your diamond!

The Bridal Shower

It’s your day with your ladies, and ladies love to take selfies! Right up close and personal, make sure you’re feeling confident with your smile!

The Bachelorette Party

Another party with the ladies? This is one that you’ll have to document with plenty of smiles to go around.

The Wedding Day

A confident bride takes the best photos. So make sure you are confident with your look and confident with your smile!

The Honeymoon

And yes, the photos continue even after the wedding, because these are your first photos as a Mrs!

Never again in your life will you have so many photos taken of you. A smile is important for the bride and the groom, because while the bride is involved in way more photos along the way, he’s still going to be in the spotlight a lot during this time. Confidence is key, and Crest 3D White Whitestrips can help get you a step closer to that confidence so you love these photos and memories for years to come!

Featured Wedding // Laura + Gordon's Castle Wedding by Rocksalt Photography

Gordon and Laura met at the age of 16 when Laura attended a new sixth form in a small rural village. This was breaking news in such a small village but they both only had eyes for each other. For such a romantic journey, these two laid back love birds took over 13 years to tie the knot. This laid back attitude was reflected throughout the day, with no bridezilla or groomzilla moments, but just a perfect fairytale wedding.

The wedding was in the most magical setting at St. Donats Castle, where dreams are made by night. With a definite “Hogwarts” feel, especially from the great hall and the ladies toilets (moaning mertyl made an appearance), it was hard not to get caught up in this fantasy world. With the stunning beach views, to castle walls and rose gardens, it had the feeling of a Greek Island. It is hard to believe that we were in Wales, although with a Welsh downpour on arrival the sun was certainly kind to us and shone over those beautiful hills for the rest of the day.

With music being so important to the bride and groom, the vinyls on each table were a perfect way to discover or revisit these albums. With hand made purple vases and record holders, made by the brides father, and flowers home grown by a bridesmaid's mum, there was a personal vintage feel to accommodate this grand setting in the great hall. With the bride arriving in her brothers camper van (with a questionable bow tied on by the bride's brother), to the most amazing flower girl dresses made by the brides mum, it could not of been a more classy, personal day!
