The dream of saying I do like a princess in a fairy tale is one shared by many brides. With the help of this posts sponsor, Big Fake Wedding, everyone was treated like royalty at Robert and Kathryn’s wedding day. 

Keep scrolling to find some truly whimsical and imaginative wedding ideas and don’t forget to stop by the full gallery to see more of the days’ images captured by Catie Sas Photography and Kelly O’Connor Photography.

From Big Fake Wedding

As a young girl, this bride always dreamed of fairy tales. Though her vision for her big day has transformed over the years, she still carries with her the magic she read in storybooks. With her dream of getting married at Edinburgh Castle, vendors were asked to imagine themselves in the hills of Scotland as they created their designs. Drawing inspiration from the rich heritage and old-world architecture, to create something that was whimsical and romantic, yet modern. By using the intricate patterns and ornate details like that of gothic cathedrals, guests felt like royalty for the night.
