A Day in Lace: Caroline Carvalho’s Bridal Portrait Perfection

By:

Lina Remmers

View Full Gallery Scroll Through Images

As the sun played peekaboo through the trees, it cast a soft, golden hue over Caroline’s parent’s home for her bridal portrait session. Caroline stood regally, clad in a Monique Lhuillier gown from Warren Barrón Bridal.

Caroline’s session was an ode to her roots through the subtle, yet poignant “somethings” that make a wedding day uniquely personal.  Caroline’s bridal ensemble featured a lace handkerchief fashioned from her mother’s wedding dress—her “something old,” carrying a legacy of love within its threads. Her “something new” was represented by elegantly monogrammed napkins, which made their debut at her bridal luncheon. The cake topper, borrowed from her parents’ own wedding cake, added a layer of tradition to her own celebration. And let’s not forget the “something blue,” which bloomed at her reception—vibrant blue hydrangeas, standing bold against the decor.

Caroline’s gown was a vision of lace and elegance, the intricate patterns weaving together perfectly. As she glided along the balcony, her gown cascading behind her like a waterfall, it was clear this dress was made for her. Every detail, from the soft rustle of her skirt to the gentle clink of her earrings, exceptionally came together.

We can’t wait to share more from Caroline and William’s wedding day! Congratulations to the Kirtleys!
